ABORTION, SHOULD IT BE ALLOWED?

Nowadays, abortion is highly discusses, there are many opinions about that issue. Actually, it is difficult to have a clear position about abortion, since it is very controversial.

On the one hand, there are people who agree with abortion because they think that the unborn child cannot be considered a human yet. Others say that girls who have been rapped may have the option to abort so that they do not have to carry this misfortune for life. The other reason that supports abortion is that when a woman has a child, her life changes completely, especially for young school girls or women without enough money. For this reason, it may be irresponsible to have a child when you cannot take care of him. Moreover, some believe that a woman should have freedom or the right to decide about her own life, this means that she is the person who has to decide whether to abort or hot, and not the society. Finally, the major reason is that sometimes, the child that a woman is going to have can put his mother's life at risk, because of an illness or deformation, then, the woman should choose between her own lifer and her child's life.

Nevertheless, on the other hand, there are also many people who disagree what abortion since they think that a foetus, even though not a human, is a life, and it is said that a foetus' organs are almost completely formed at the fourth month, so, although being in his/her mother’s womb,  he can hear and fell. Moreover, though a rape is a misfortune, the child is innocent, and he or she does not have to pay what others did. People also believe that reasons such as money or mother’s age are not enough to kill a baby because the situation can change, while you are alive you have hope, but if you die, you do not have anything! For example, the woman may take government aid if she does not have money. And even a woman has the right to decide, but do not forget that she only has the right to decide about her own life, but not about her child’s life.

In conclusion, I think that abortion should not be allowed since a foetus is also a life, like you and me. So, please do not undervalue a life which doe not belong to you, in spite of being his mother. However, I believe that when a foetus can put his mother’s life at risk, then the woman can abort, since she has to decide when her own life is also involved. But I think this is the only reason that permits a woman to abort.
