so, last night i was thinking about abortion, particularly teenage abortion, and it just doesn't make sense. i mean, it is illegal for a 14 year old to drink, it is illegal for a 14 year old to smoke, it is illegal for a 14 year old to be out past 11PM, it is illegal for a 14 year old to drop out of school, it is illegal for a 14 year old to drive ( Read more... )

Like Sarah said, I would never have an abortion, but thats my choice, not the choice of every other woman

Our society looks down upon teenage pregnancies, but what are we doing to help them?
In Jr. High, they'd make us go to those abstinince classes, and talk about what sex can do to people our age.
Yes, 14 year olds are getting pregant and having babies, but theres more to sex than babies.
There are also STDs like AIDS, and instead of making our youth go to abstinince classes all the time, why cant we find other ways to make sex more safe?
People who want to have sex will have sex, no matter what you try to do to stop them. Yes, they are immature, and not ready for children, but why keep dwelling upon this fact?
Making abortion illegal will not do our society any good, the act of abortion will become dangerous and death ridden.
Women don't just have babies on their own, men contribute their sperm for it to happen, so lets not frown upon the impregnated 8th grade girls- they know what they did- let them choose what they want.

I'm glad you made this entry, and I fully respect your opinion
