its heading that abortion should be a woman's right to choose what she does with
her body, and it should not be altered or influenced by anyone else. This right
is guaranteed by the ninth amendment, which contains the right to privacy. This
brings up a very interesting point, which is that the ninth amendment is a
strong argument in the fight for Pro-Choice. It states that "The enumeration in
the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not construed to deny or disparage
others retained by the peo .....

Abortion And The Mentally Handicapped

We feel that you will suffer further if you are forced to give up the child.
Your psychiatrist has come to the conclusion that you are not capable of being a
responsible parent, but you are, at times, capable of making rational moral
decisions. However, because you are not able to make important, rational, moral
decisions most of the time your mother can claim that you are not mentally
capable of raising a child. Also. We took in to account that the father of this
unborn child .....

Abortion And My Own Thoughts
.... this rate,
but where would we be emotionally? Speaking from a “my” point of view, I
wouldn't get to far. I enjoy children profusely and thinking that there are 1.9
million children less in the world every year sends shivers down my spine. But
I guess you may say that it is not my place to speak.
There are fewer deaths per million abortions than per million births
according to the Planned Parenthood survey of 1995. There are nine deaths per
million abortion procedures and sixty-three deaths per milli .....

27) Take this for example; Say a woman is walking down the street carrying a
child in her arms. Another woman is walking down that same street carrying a
child, only this woman is carrying the child in her. Both children are
dependent on their mothers, both just dependent in different ways. (Schwarz 35)
Take another example "Suppose a woman suffers a miscarriage, A sympathetic
doctor will not tell her, "You have lost your fetus"; he will say; "You have

Auguments About Abortion
.... not of morality
but of choice and constitutionality.
The ninth amendment states "The enumeration in the Constitution, of
certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by
the people." This in turn, is guaranteeing a women the right to have an
abortion. Pro-choice people say that abortion is the killing of a child, but
pro-choice people do not consider the fetus a child. A philosopher, Mary Anne

Abortion Should Be Kept Out Of The Criminal Code
.... at the woman's request were first allowed by the Soviet Union in 1920,
followed by Japan and several East European nations after World War II. In the
late 1960s liberalized abortion regulations became widespread. The impetus for
the change was threefold: (1) infanticide and the high maternal death rate
associated with illegal abortions, (2) a rapidly expanding world population, (3)
the growing feminist movement. By 1980, countries where abortions were permitted
only to save a woman's life contained about 2 .....

The Morality Of Abortion
.... which
the child will be brought into will be healthy and supportive. It is a far
greater crime to treat a child poorly for eighteen years then it is to terminate
a fetus that cannot think, feel or is aware of its existence.
On the second point of making the way that conception occurred a non-
factor I am not saying that having the babies of rapists or in cases of incest
is okay. Still, for the argument that abortion is immoral, you must argue that
the action is immoral, not the child. The child cannot .....

have the choice to live and to die, and in that choice lies the very thing that

bygone Century? It is an incontrovertible fact of biological science - Make no
Mistake - that from the moment of conception, a new human life has been created.
Only those who allow their emotional passion to overide their knowledge,
can deny it: only those who are irrational or ignorant of science, doubt that
when a human sperm fertilizes a human ovum a new human being is created. A new
human being who carries genes in its cells that make that human being uniquely
different from any and other h .....

would have no one to rely on but a single mother with no schooling, and maybe a
non-supportive family. He or she would have a twisted, miserable upbringing,

Another reason that causes women choice abortion is health problem.

Life, Death, And Politics: A Run-Down Of The Abortion Debate.

also enhanced society's knowledge of the fetus. Ultrasound, fetal therapy, and
amniocentesis graphically reveal complex life before birth, and it is this

There are severe repercussions for rapists and assault of another person. We

Nurse Shafer considered herself to be "very pro-choice," she didn't think this

"I stood at the doctor's side and watched him perform a
partial-birth abortion on a woman who was six months
pregnant. The baby's heartbeat was clearly visible on the
ultrasound screen. The doctor delivered the baby's body and
