A woman’s body belongs to her, so it should be her choice what she does with it. The most valuable thing you have is the OWNERSHIP of your body. I firmly believe that her, and her alone, should have total and complete control over her God-given body. The government did not create her body, so why should they dictate what she does with it? I firmly believe that’s too much control.
Ultimately, the decisions a woman makes regarding her body—from what she consumes or how she dresses is HERS. These choices are HER rights, as HER body belongs to HER. We live in a free country (so they say) , therefore we should be free to do as we please with our bodies without outsiders’ influence or interference. Do you agree?
With that being said let’s get to it… Yes, I am pro choice, but I am also pro-life in certain circumstances. Whatever decisions a person makes, they are the ones who must live with those consequences. I firmly believe that no human being should have the authority to dictate what another person can or cannot do with their body. Everyone should possess the right to make choices that align with their own beliefs, values, and circumstances.
Those of you that are anti-abortion let me ask you this; what if your baby girl was raped by a friend or a family member and became pregnant as a result? Should she be forced to carry a pregnancy stemming from such a traumatic experience? Because the truth of the matter is one out of every four girls are molested before they turn18. Can you imagine the profound trauma this inflicts on both the mother and the child? It’s a heartbreaking and complex situation that no one should be forced to endure. If society or the government truly cares, they should prioritize the mental health and emotional well-being of this young girl address the ramifications of such a traumatic experience. The lack of a choice forces decisions that could cause further harm to this young girl or the potential child.
Now, let’s consider this, what if you were a woman who has endured a devastating experience-being brutally beaten and raped by a stranger-and became pregnant. Should you be coerced into carrying a child conceived by such an act of violence? Think about the impact of raising a child under these circumstances. Can you imagine reliving that horrifying day every time you look in your child’s eyes? I can’t speak for anyone else, but I don’t know how or if I would be able to process those feelings, or how I would be able to love and properly care for my child while their face reminds me of such a horrific and painful memory. To be forced into making decisions like that, not only places the mother in emotional trauma but also the child.
Now let me ask you this… What if a woman found out of a life threatening health condition if she was to bring her pregnancy to term? That she or her baby could face life threatening realities or even birth defects if she goes though with her pregnancy, isn’t that her responsibility to make healthy decisions for herself and her unborn child?
One more hypothetical question…. What if a young girl was drunk or intoxicated and foolishly had unprotected sex? Let’s be real because we all know that this does happens, WE are all human and WE make mistakes. Thank God for “Plan B” right? But what if it’s too late for Plan B and this young lady had no knowledge of what happened that night and it’s two months down the line and she finds out she’s pregnant? This young woman has a scholarship for college but comes from a poor family and financially she can’t provide for this child. After she has exhausted all her resources and come up empty handed then what does she do?
Please don’t get it twisted, although I am pro- Life, It’s limits and levels to this. I don’t take abortion lightly and I don’t think the right to abortion should give females the green light to go around having unprotected sex and be sexually irresponsible. I’m totally against females having an abortion due to the fact of them not knowing who the baby father is, or because they already have several kids and just don’t want another one. Or even if they realize that being pregnant is not going to keep that man or make that man leave his woman or wife. I don’t think it’s cool to just be having multiple abortions. The right to an abortion shouldn’t be used as a form of birth control, that is what contraception is for.
“I know the saying Mommas baby, the Father’s maybe” although this may or may not apply, I still believe that the father should be a part of this decision making. If the father is present, supportive, and responsible he should have some say in the birth or the abortion of their child. While the woman’s body carries the pregnancy, both parents have a stake in the well-being and future of the child. The well-being of all parties involved, including the potential child, should be at the forefront of any decision-making process.
Ultimately, Women should have the right to make choices regarding reproductive health without government interference. The principle of a woman’s body is fundamental, and individuals should have the freedom to decide what is best for them without Our Government or outside entities dictating those decisions. At all times they should respect a person’s freedom of choice, especially women who’ve had their rights disenfranchised for centuries. This is what democracy and Human rights are about right? My Body –My Choice. Do you agree?
