Abortion

A lot of people get Pro-Choice confused into thinking its “Pro-Abortion”. You are either Pro-Life or Pro-Choice, you can not waver to and fro between the tags. From my personal thinking, being Pro-Choice, you are not advocating abortion. It is the right that a woman has a choice, as simple as that. In a better world, there would be no need to have an abortion, and I’m sure everyone agrees that would be the ideal situation, but it doesn’t work like that. We have to take into consideration that being pregnant in a school setting or out of a school setting is a very hard thing to do, if you are unable to support yourself, how are you suppose to support another human being? We tend to focus on school settings because as an adult, its more commonly assumed that you can take of yourself; while girls in high school or maybe younger, are put through a lot of ridicule. And even when they overcome the judgment that the other students have burdened them with, it is difficult to get their lives back together. Being pro-choice is not the favoring of abortion over other alternatives, it is the agreement that there are other options out there.

On the other hand, with Pro-Life, there comes the belief that every human life is sacred. As soon as the egg has been fertilized; that is defined as someone's existence. With this belief, everyone should have the chance to exist. "It is God's will," as many have retorted. There is always the option of adoption, or some church's have had a pregnancy help center, where they will take care of the woman through her pregnancy and after as long as they do their share of chores and participate in the religion.
