I understand why people oppose abortion, a unborn person with potential and some class it as murder. But has anyone thought if the person really wants to be born? What life would be like under a mother who never wanted you in the first place? Everyone is forced into being and if abortion was illegal everywhere under all circumstances there would be a lot more child abuse, crime and suicides from broken families, despite the health support and other such support. I understand the argument for if a fetus can feel pain, but in Britain (not sure if this is different in other countries) we have a very strict time slot of when an abortion can be taken place, this is before a fetus has brain activity (can't remember how many weeks, 20 something I believe) so the body physically can't feel pain if it has no brain activity. I do draw the line at abortion after brain activity occurs because you've had plenty of time to do it humanely.
In Britain to have an abortion is also difficult to get done as you have to provide a good excuse why you have to have an abortion e.g. mentally insane, medically unstable and such and so forth. Not sure if in other countries you can have an abortion for the hell of it, if so that's disturbing...
But it is easy to say to give the child away, but what would this mean? The mother would have constant guilt and worry about the child, not to mention the horrific ordeal of child birth and post nasal depression mothers go through. So they would have gone through all that for what, give the child away? If it was a child of a rape victim and finds out their father was a rapist have you thought about how horrific and heart breaking that is for the child? Adopted children go through HELL, they get bullied and never get the real love of their blood relatives, no matter how loving their foster family may be they never seem to have that void filled.
Another thing is something I don't know if anyone has mentioned. But what if the woman is terrified of child birth? I never want children, if I do they'll be adopted for this precise reason. Pregnancy and child birth to after that is horrific, some women can go mad because of it (has resulted in some pretty gruesome murders from a woman going mad). You have this person inside of you, moving, kicking, winding you, making you vomit all the time and all that embarrassment. You have to have check ups all the time and needles... ugh I hate needles... and they're huge! No joke, looking at the size makes me wanna leg it... Your skin stretches, cravings and you have to buy new clothes and watch your step all the time. Feet get bigger and have to buy new shoes... and then the child birth itself can kill the woman (I nearly killed my mum along with my death as well, I was a c-section and there were many complications) and the post nasal depression is apparently the worst you can get, everything seems empty and your life used up apparently.
Most people who oppose abortion in any circumstance seem to be either men (no offense, but it's understandable as they never have a fear of this fate) or people who think the world is rosey. I don't oppose abortion nor support it, because I personally don't know how I'd advise someone in the situation or what I'd do in the situation, I couldn't cope with the label of being a murderer and killing my own flesh and blood nor could I stand the whole ordeal of having the child... so I chose not to think about it.
A final argument is something I see as quite depressing. In some countries abortion is totally illegal, and when a woman gets pregnant and seriously can't handle it, they commit suicide. Losing two lives when at least one life could have been saved, this is also the case in countries with abortion being allowed but pressure of outsiders labeling the person as a murderer. If I had a friend who was raped and ended up pregnant as a result and her family denied and pressured her into keeping the child and she ended up committing suicide, how would we all feel? Horrible, the people around the woman are most effected if she commits suicide compared to if she just had an abortion.
And a personal thing, if I was a fetus of a mother who had been raped I would have preferred her to have aborted me to spare her committing suicide and wasting bother of our lives, but that's just me... I would give up my life to save someone, even if they were a total stranger. (as long as they were a nice person, otherwise I'd just try to save them but not give up my life)
