“Pro-Choice”
“Reasons to Have an Abortion”

           Most of her reasons are without substance. So I will just respond to all arguments directly. In fact, all of her reasons except for the first one beg the question by assuming that the unborn child is not a valuable human being, deserving of the same rights we all are. So without further ado, let’s examine the reasons.

1. You don’t want to have a child because of your career.

Having a child is not always easy. Pro-life people freely concede this. But this still does not justify taking a child’s life. Imagine that a single mother decides to give birth, and after the child is born her boss tells her that if she doesn’t come back to work next week, she’ll be fired. Would she be justified in killing her child so that she doesn’t have to worry anymore and go back to work? Of course not. So if the unborn is a valuable human being, we can’t justify abortion for that reason, either.

2. You feel you are too young.

So apparently you could be any age, and if you feel you are too young, go get an abortion. Needless to say, this argument begs the question because again, if the unborn are valuable human beings, we can’t justify killing them because the mother feels she is too young, unless in extreme cases where her youth would pose a significant threat to her life if the pregnancy continues.

3. You feel you are too old.

Apparently the author believes that a woman should be able to have an abortion just based on her whims. She does begin by saying she is “very pro-choice,” so I’m guessing that probably means she doesn’t really think any reasons are off-limits for having an abortion. At any rate, this begs the question for the same reason the others have.

So, I think everyone have their own choice, they know what is the best for themselves. An abortion is not always a wrong option. And I’m proud to be Pro-Choice.
