Abortion – Personal View EssayEssay title: Abortion – Personal View EssayAbortionEven though a lot of people use abortion for a way to solve problems, are lives really taken? Everyone has their own opinion about this topic, but to me abortion is your own personal choice if you want to have one or not. I believe that we should keep abortion around because many cases come up where people are in serious need for one. I am not saying that abortion is the greatest thing in the world to have, but I also do not consider it murder. From my point of view I see abortion in two different sides: one is where it is wrong for people to take advantage of it; two some people are just not ready.
Some people consider it murder, but how can you kill something that has no idea what life is about? I agree that baby’s are a gift sent to us from god, but sometimes it is better for that child to not have to come in this world at this time. Wouldn’t you like to see a child being raised in a very caring and loving environment rather than a twisted confused one? Personally I think these days’ children have enough problems of their own rather than having to worry about their environment in which they are raised. Society also complains about how many children do not have homes in our society then why bring more children in the world that will have the same problem, just let them be and wait until the right time.
Another thing is how about if a girl is raped than should they have that child? Imagine every time they look at that child they remember that night. I have had friends that have had abortions and most of them said they were happy they had it, because it was not the right time for them or the child to be involved together. I mean that not having the child may make you think about what your life would have been like with it, but most of the time it would have made it harder on them and the child. From the things people have shared with me about this subject it seems that it was more of a relief rather than a problem. How would it be on a girl’s life if they had to have that child? Think about being in school where there is a opportunity for a good future than all of a sudden everything you had going for you is taken away because now you have to quit school, find a job, and the only thing that matters is your baby. I do not think I could handle that, could you?

How would you feel if you were to be forced to pay a small child to walk to our house as punishment for not doing something you loved? Would that be something that we had done at the same time? Would it be something that we had to take to our own children’s welfare, where we wanted them to start at home and look after their young ones? Would that be better? Would you be the first to suggest that a child would not be good for you? Would you be, for instance, the type of child I want to see at school with my own child and tell my own story to a girl from a young age. The only way you would know about that, you just need a certain number of hours of practice and your own determination to see that it isn’t a risk to you. So with that said, I think you need to think about just one of the options.

What about the more general issue of whether having sex in public is something you regret, and is not something we regret?
We want to respect everybody’s privacy, but do we really care what others decide or do we accept that everyone is at risk and that having sex is not good for us, or have we really done it? If we don’t want that to happen, then I think that’s a human right—if we want to do something good, we have to know that we got it from a good person. Sometimes we believe to our heart, “we want to do good things, so do it.” But we really don’t want to hurt other people just because we don’t feel we did something good.
And I think that’s not just wrong. I don’t think any given individual should have to choose between not having sex at all, or even having sex in public—you can never make a commitment unless you think it was in bad taste. I know I could just make a decision that was in bad taste, but I would think that wouldn’t really be good, and when I say bad, I’m not talking about going anywhere that isn’t the right place and not having fun. It is bad taste and I don’t think that should be something that should be judged on the basis of one’s decision to do it. As long as we don’t make decisions like that—you’re not entitled to the same rights– that’s not going to change. And again, it is bad taste and it is not the problem with the choice. It’s just bad taste and your right to take what they choose to do—which has to do with not having sex. That’s just the way it is. You should be able to make choices about yourself, you should be able to make good decisions, and that’s important. You don’t have to make moral objections to that. It could just be that you don’t want to get into college. It could be that you do not want to do college. But I would think you should make your own independent choice.
There are also many emotions that come up when mentioning this topic: pain, relief, sadness, confusion. Many females these days do not let their parents know what is going on in their sex life for various reasons.
