First you have the "rights" of the woman because it's her body. Unfortunately, it took TWO bodies to make that one life growing inside of her. I think it's completely wrong to say only the woman should be able to "make the choice" in regards to abortion. It isn't just her baby.
Then, you completely disregard the life that is growing within the womb. Sure, it might not yet be fully-formed or be able to function in society. It doesn't mean it isn't life though. A life is a life and you can't deny that the growing baby isn't living.
I don't know if you've ever seen the videos to Silent Scream but it's pretty scary what they do to the baby. I mean, seriously, it touched the doctor who was performing abortions so much that he stopped doing them. It's live footage of a fetus actually trying to get away from the abortion procedure and the poor baby even "screams" out before...well...we know what abortion does. If you want to know about abortion, see the videos, and actually understand what it is, check this out, and watch the videos:
Now, you tell me, do you think that's okay? You think an innocent life-form that has yet to even see the sun shine deserves to be ripped apart? If anyone can watch the Silent Scream videos and NOT cry then I seriously believe they have no soul.
The idea that abortion is safe is also complete made-up, as you can see from the above link. There are plenty, and I mean PLENTY, of women who have died because of the abortion procedure.
And, to be quite honest, there are so many infertile couples who would die to be able to adopt an infant. Infants are the first to become adopted. Heck, if you play it out right you can find a kind, loving couple to adopt a baby before it's even born. I'd love to adopt an unwanted baby, and always try to make it known to people who come here seeking abortion information that I will take them up on the offer of adopting their infant if they will just go through with the pregnancy. Yeah, I'd sign whatever agreement forms and everything. There's absolutely no excuse to say nobody would want your baby.
In addition, a lot of doctors push for abortion when it's not needed. My mother was practically harassed by doctors to abort my brother because test results came back that he was going to be abnormal. Whoop dee doo. Do you know what was abnormal about him? The muscles in the back of his mouth were weak and he drooled for the first couple of years of his life until he could do the strengthening exercises! Think a little weakened muscle means a life deserves death? Heck no.
My mother isn't all though. I've heard multiple other women who were pressured to abort when they ended up giving birth to completely healthy infants!
I won't ramble on forever. I already sent you the link of the material I have on abortion. If that doesn't convince you that abortion is bad then nothing is going to open your eyes to the evil of it. [ Peeps's advice column | Ask Peeps A Question ]

If there are health complications, or if they are victims of rape then I understand a woman having the right to have an aborition.
xxlilreddivaxx answered Sunday December 19 2010, 5:29 pm: This is a very debatable subject. I am pro-choice. If you are a 19-year old girl who gets pregnant and cannot support the baby, then abortion might be a good idea. If I were to get pregnant at this point in my life, I probably would have an abortion. School is very important and having a baby at such a young age will only cause problems. [ xxlilreddivaxx's advice column | Ask xxlilreddivaxx A Question ]
WittyUsernameHere answered Thursday December 16 2010, 8:23 pm: I think that choosing to not keep a baby you are not ready or able to raise yourself is a good decision to make, be it through abortion or adoption.
It's not a pretty concept. I doubt you'd find someone who thought abortions were awesome. Alot of things about the world aren't pretty concepts. The fact that it's unpleasant doesn't make it not the right choice in some situations, and I think some situations include more situations than incest and rape.

adviceman49 answered Wednesday December 15 2010, 11:03 am: Abortion is a very private matter; one I believe is left entirely up to the woman as it is her body.
I've been called may things in my life, some good and some bad. The one thing I am most proud of being called is a flag waver. I am very proud of what this country has to offer. One of the things we take great pride in is free choice. I do not think it is right for anyone to tell you what you should do when it comes to abortion. Supreme Court legalized abortion in the Roe v Wade decision. That means no one can force you not to have or to have an abortion, it has to be a woman's choice.
As a male my feeling for or against abortion are irrelevant as long as the procedure remains legal. I can if I wish demonstrate for or against as that is my right. But to bar you from entering a clinic or causing any disruption or embarrassment to those that chose to avail themselves of this right is morally and legally wrong.

marinemom24 answered Wednesday December 15 2010, 8:13 am: I'm definetly against it. I have been in that situation and opted to have the baby. But not everyone has that option for a variety of reasons. Adoption, in my opinion, is a much better alternative all around. There are many couples who would love to have children but cannot for whatever reason. An unborn child can be a beautiful gift. Every life has meaning and purpose in this world. The fact that some people use abortion as an easy fix to an "inconvenience" is very sad. There are planned parenthood centers all over the country and should be accessed by anyone even considering having sex. It's so much better to prevent unwanted pregnacy rather than facing what to do after the fact. [ marinemom24's advice column | Ask marinemom24 A Question ]
hitler_the_goat answered Wednesday December 15 2010, 4:23 am: I'm not for it, nor am I against it. its not my decision. thats up to you girls to decide for yourselves, because I'm not the one with child. If I found myself in that situation, I'd support my girl either way she went.
