I have been thinking about writing about this topic for discussion, but wasn't sure how to approach it, and if I could even handle the responses.I gave it some thought, and well...here I am.It's something I feel very passionate about and I have to get it off my chest.I am not aiming to offend, so I apologize in advance if I do.This is merely my opinion, and I am but a small speck in this world... Let's not even talk about women's right for a second,let's talk about the baby first, yes I said baby... I have done a lot of research about the methods they use for abortion, and I find it to be cruel and unforgiving.The age of the fetus plays a huge part of why I think this. I read in Parent's magazine that the 1st-4th week the baby develops many things.One is the ability to think,yes the fetus has a brain...so to me, it's a baby.It has it's nervous system,so it can feel..so to me,it is a baby.It can also sense movement and sounds through vibration, and some even say at this point can sense it's mother's emotion...again if it can do these things, to me it is a baby. Now back to the method part. The morning after pill : This can be looked at two ways. A) a form of birth control, which to me is clearly not birth control...or B)a form of abortion,(which may not be as cruel as a vac. sucking out the already developing fetus or a needle of an acid type substance shoved into the sac and then the fetus itself)but it kills the fetus none-the-less. Medical Abortion: peformed up to 9 weeks (we won't even go there when it comes to development,the baby has the feelings like I said earlier the first 4 weeks of life) This method consists of multiple visits to the doctor being treated with one or more drugs and actually gradually kills the baby slowly,but it is very effective. Surgical Abortion: These can be performed for up to 12 weeks of the baby's life.12 weeks!!! It's where they insert a tube and suck your baby out like cobwebs in the corners of your ceiling. I listed all of those things first, so I could support my reason for believing what I believe on the matter, not to convince any of you on your opinion. I think it's cruel,and should be against the law.Here's why.You are killing a baby,not a fly that is bugging you,a real live, human baby,who clearly cannot speak for himself. Who has feelings and is aware of what is being done to him/her [did you know they are already a him/her at the time of conception?You can't see it, but they are either Jill or Jack that early on]. Now on to the women who have these procedures done.Yes woman have rights, to do with their body as they choose and I know the reasons why women have these procedures done,and frankly unless a person is raped [and even then I have a hard time justifying it] there is no reason why you either can't practice a safer form of birth contol,and/or give the baby up to people who can't have children and can give it what you obviously can't or don't want to give it.Period. Some women have abortions simply because it is more convenient,or they want to cover up ever have gotten pregnant in the first place.These are not reasons people!!! The rape thing.. to me, is even hard to swallow.No you didn'thave a choice that you got pregnant,and I feel bad that you were put in that situation, but to not give the innocent party [the baby] a chance at life is taking a bad situation and making it worse in my eyes. I know of women who are in abusive relationships and are raped by their spouse and still keep the baby, as damaging it is to them , still keep the baby.What is different with rape victims who don't know their attacker?If you don't want the baby, fine there are couples who can't have babies...give them a chance.... To me killing a child is unacceptable and cruel,dare I say murder...no matter the excuse..in my eyes.
