What do you think?  

I see no problem with it being legal. I am not one that totally agrees with abortion, but I do feel that there is a need for it in certain situations. I know that if I was a victim of a violent crime and if pregnancy resulted from this, I would really find it difficult to want to continue the pregnancy.
Just like many women that are quite ill and cannot take birth control, why should they have to go through the serious health implications that a pregnancy could cause them. I strongly feel that abortion is a matter of personal choice. People should not use it as a method of birth control.

I would never have an abortion because I would not be able to live happily with that guilt. I believe that life begins at conception and that every baby is innocent. I read about a girl aged 9 that was pregnant thorough abuse who was able to have an abortion even though it is illegal in her home country. I think that abortion should be illegal unless there is medical reason for one like your sister experienced. Perhaps it is wise that it is legal though because back street abortions still take place where they are illegal. I think that abortions should not be free but cost a lot of money so ladies are more careful. I think that education about how to avoid pregnancy should be taught to all teenagers. I wish that adoption could become much easier. The aborted babies are the lost people of the world. Sometimes like with a situation like your sisters it was unavoidable. I am really sorry to hear that you have got cervical cancer. Good luck.

I think that it should remain legal as its a medical procedure that is sometimes necessary. But not only that I think that a woman should have the right to choose even if its not medically necessary. I don't know of any valid reason to reverse the law.

Given how long it has been legal, I think that even if the law were reversed that people would still perform abortions and get abortions. I would prefer that women have the ability to go to a medically supervised environment if this is what they have chosen to do.

First thing first every person has the choice to have a baby or not.. They made condoms for protection, birth control for protection and other things to help prevent unplanned pregnancy.. A female that doesn't play it safe on says one thing she don't care about her own health not to mention the male involved.. Abortions should be illegal no matter what.. These tiny babies deserve to live and live life just like the mother or father of the unborn child.. The only way i think if women are allowed to have abortions is if they were sexually abused or a life and death situation.. Yes if a unborn child is a risk to your health you should be able to have an abortion other than that NO!!! I am very deeply sorry to hear about your health situation i am very sure that it's hard to deal with.. You are making a very smart move no to have any more children, due to the fact of the risk and not wanting to leave your children behind.. God Bless you and your family..

i agree with you. i personally wouldn't do an abortion but why take away the rights of someone who may need it. so i would say i'm pro choice. a womans right to chose what happens to her body. i think it should be legal BUT the process of an abortion be more 'nitpicky' so to say as to make the paper work a little more tedious to prevent reckless women who get pregnant just because they know they can have an abortion. i think the government should regulate those things because the privilege of abortion shouldn't be abused in the first place. my sister had an abortion when she was in college. i didn't even know this until i was faced with keeping a child or aborting it, or even giving the child up for adoption. but after a long talk with the father, i decided that i wouldn't want that and i would regret it. in my situation it was best for me to keep it. but for my sister, it was better for her to abort it because she person she got pregnant from wasn't going to stay with her in the long run.

I do not believe in abortion I don't think it's right I have 4 kids and yes two of them have disabilities but you know what so what. They can do anything any other kids can do. My daughter is austic and has epsliy right now she is at the top of her class in reading and in math. My son has learning disabilities he particapted in bible quiz last month for the first time and his team took 3rd place overall. I don't understand the thing behind abortion when someone chooses do to this they are playing the role of God because they are killing a baby no man has the right to choose it is up to God to decide when it's time for someone to die not man.

hi,
I say that it should be legal because people are going to do it anyway - is it not worth saving many more lives (the lives of the mothers) than letting them die getting back-alley abortions? Remember, this isn't about whether abortion is right or wrong (there are more than enough of those already) - this is about whether it should be legal or not.And so you know, I do not like abortion. I hate it. But I do think it should be legal. Have a very good day here at mylot.

I think that abortion should stay legal. Don't get me wrong i am against abortion, it's just the though of killing something before it has even had a chance to live. But then again i also think that if the baby would be born to neglect and unwant that it should be taken from the world before it can feel any pain. But then again having an abortion is depriving a couple unable to have a baby of adopting a baby. So overall i think that abortion should be laeag but people considering it should think about what would be best for the baby not themselves.

I think a lady ought to have right to do what she wants with her body inside and out. There needs to be alternative education options available to everyone always. :)

all i can say is god tells us not to kill whatever choice you make it will be answered by god.
