More and more studies show that there is indeed a connection between abortion and breast cancer. Women are starting to see that the rate of breast cancer is a lot higher in women who have had abortions then the ones who have not had abortions.
This writer hopes that the cancer news will help curb the amount of abortions that are preformed each day in this country. The use of abortion as birth control should never have been allowed in this country to begin with. I have heard all the excuses about why we should allow abortions and I can find myself to agree with any of them. The real big one is abortions should be allowed due to all the rapes and incest that happen. Well, about 1 percent of all abortions preformed in this country are done so because of rape and or incest.
The other reasons are anything from the mother being not ready to have a child to The condom broke. I can not in good faith say that there is any good reason for abortion due to the fact that as soon as that egg is fertilized the human cells start to appear and there is a human life growing inside the mother's womb and for anyone to take a human life is just down right wrong.
One thing that really gets me going is when I have a person tell me that a woman has the right to her own body. I agree she indeed has the right to what happens to her body. However, that unborn child inside of her also has a right to it's body and as far as when is it a life? Well some experts say they can hear a baby's heart beat anywhere from 22 to 24 weeks, others say with new technology a babys heart beat can be detected at 12 weeks and as medical technology improves I am sure doctors will be able to detected earlier and earlier.
Even though abortion is legal in the US my hope is that some day it will no longer be legal. The only way I can even half consider legal abortions would be abortions done for reason of brutal rape and or incest and maybe if there was medical proof that the baby would cause the death of the mother and neither the mother or the baby would survive a full or partial term pregnancy and neither of them could be saved by use of a cesarian. Like in the cases of pre-eclampsia which one could save both mother and baby in most cases without use of abortion. And in cases of rare blood disorders that could cause the mother making dangerous amounts of antibodies as an reaction to the pregnancy. Only in cases like the ones mentioned could I ever say an abortion would be the correct choice.
The way this writer sees it, there is always birth control and adoption of new born babies. There is also foster care and yes, I have heard all the horror stories about foster and all the abuse that go's on in foster care homes. i am sure this all happens in some foster care homes but at least these kids have a chance to rise above it all and make a good life for themselves. Also, I know many individuals that were in foster care for many years and were lucky enough to be with loving families and these foster care kids had a good life. Not all foster care situations are bad !
Maybe I have now ruffled some feathers with this blog. If so, then so be it. In this writer's opinion, this country should make it as difficult as they can to have access
to a legal abortion.
