.... a long period of time. Such is not the case in jail suicides.
Much of the research shows that "of all [jail] suicides occur within the first
twenty four hours of incarceration, and an overwhelming number of these take
place in the first three hours of isolation which is referred to as the “crisis
period" (Hess 1987). The crisis period is reflective of arrest and incarceration
as producing extreme confusion, fear, and anxiety. The crisis period is also the

Abortion: A Controversial Subject
.... does not help the victim, instead it only worsens the problem because the victims needs are not being met.
But what the facts suggest is that only a minority of rape and incest victims actually choose abortion. This is where pro-life has its biggest problem. Pro-life states that "Abortion is not usually chosen as the immediate solution for rape and incest victims but that is the prevailing belief of the general population. A woman has been raped and made pregnant: "Oh, she's got to have an .....

.... to kill her unborn daughter, one had better be prepared to some day give the daughter the unrestricted right to kill the aged mother.
Many people that are against abortions are raised in the church or are religious. They believe that abortion is murder, and that God does not approve of this. There is a book called “The Hand of God“, written by Dr. Bernard Nathanson, one of the doctors that was instrumental in getting legislation for abortion passed in the 1960’s.

Abortion: What Do We Do?
.... can cost as little as $500. On the flipside, if something goes wrong during or after the procedure, such as excessive bleeding by the female, externally or internally, or other complications, an abortion can be very costly, easily up into the thousands. On the most part, women who do have abortions done, do so without any major complications.

A Pro-Choice Argument
.... pregnancy is possibly one of the most difficult challenges a woman has to face. Having a child is a huge financial burden on a woman as well as her family. Many women lack sexual education, such as which contraceptives are available to them, where to buy them, and how to pay for birth control, which can be very expensive.(Small steps are being made to help with the latter problem. Recently, Maryland became the first state to offer insurance coverage for contraceptives.1) These women who are unin .....

.... world would like to do, but with a baby by her side. It was just not possible. All her hopes and dreams had been shattered into a million pieces because of one mistake.
If only there was a way to go back in time and change the past so that our present will be normal. As normal as a 15 year old girl should be. With problems relating to boys and meeting assignment deadlines, rather than the hard stuff. The kind of stuff a baby would otherwise provide to her with open arms.
Unfortunately there isn .....

.... she is taking the chance of getting pregnant, even if she uses protection. If she doesn't want to get pregnant she shouldn't have sex, and she should be responsible enough to suffer the consequences. For example, Carrie is very promiscuous and finds out that she is pregnant, so she goes and has an abortion. Next time Carrie finds out that she has HIV, well she can't pay someone to get rid of her problem so she has to deal with it. Why shouldn't she have to deal with the fact of being pregnant? Ther .....

The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.

Pro-Life And Pro-Choice Regarding Abortion
.... Many pro-choice proponents argue that human life begins at viability, the moment when a fetus can survive outside the mothers womb. That is why they believe abortion is an okay decision to make.
Pro-life advocates believe that a babys life begins at conception. They state "That right to be born overrides the mothers right to make decisions about her body since her decisions to abort affect the life of another human being, the unborn baby."To them abortion is "murder." They say that "Its not a ch .....

Abortion
.... created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. (vv. 13-16)
Here David speaks of God's relationship with him while he was growing and .....

The Partial Birth Abortion Debate

The baby's little fingers were clasping and unclasping, his feet were kicking. Then the doctor suck the scissors through the back of his head, and the baby's arms jerked out in a flinch, a startled reaction, like a baby does when he thinks that he might fall. The doctor opened up the scissors, stuck a high-powered suction tube into the opening and sucked .....

Abortion Life Or Death: Who Chooses?

But who in reality is using arguments of a 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 .....
