Abortion


            
             Abortion has been a widely opinionated controversy for quite some time now. Most people who are involved with this controversy either share the title of being pro-choice or being pro-life, obviously being pro-life means that one is against abortion and believes that a fetus is life, and being pro-choice meaning that one supports the choices that a woman makes for her own body and well being. Most candidates for pro-life argue that having an abortion qualifies as a certain degree of murder, but think of this situation: what if you had a little sister in her early teenage years. Imagine that she came home one night crying only for you to find out that some guy who had thought nothing of it had raped her. Not only will she and the rest of her family suffer for years to come from the rape alone, but also a few days later she gets the horrifying news that she is pregnant. Having a child affects every body's life in almost every way possible from physically to mentally. Having a child would affect this girl's teenage years as well as affecting her emotionally for the rest of her life. She had no control over this intercourse and now has to pay for somebody else's actions. In a religious aspect David C. Reardon, Ph. D, quotes "How can you call yourself a loving Christian if you would force a victim of a violent rape to give birth to a rapist's child (http://nichole.simonweb.com)?" Who would want to tell their child who their real father was when in reality that child was conceived during a gruesome, heartless act of rape.
             Granted that a minor proportion of women choose to get abortions for the reasons of incest and rape, it is still a woman's decision because it is her body. In the particular case of children, becoming pregnant from rape and incest affects the rest of their adolescent lives, whereas most "women" who have been raped have emotional damage and carry that emotional damage on with them and their child if she decides to have that child.
