I am writing a persuasive speech on abortion and i'm going to tell you my reasons and stuff and i need some pointers on what else to say or what to change.....keep in mind that this is me just blabbing right now and it's not in any form whatsoever!
Abortion is a way to terminate a pregnency. You may do it for many different but reasons, but in my mind it's all wrong. From 'Planned Parenthood', i found a list of reasons that someone might get an abortion. These many reasons include that the mother may not feel that they are ready to be a mother, she may not be able to afford a baby, she may not want to be a single parent, or she may not want people to know that she had sex or is pregnant. All of these reasons may sound to many like perfectly good reasons to have an abortion, but when the issue is thought out you need to realize that you are killing an unborn child. It's not just a bunch of cells that we're talking about, but an unborn child. An abortion gives these young lives no shot at life and no ability to have a chance at anything. Even with reasons like your not ready to be a mother, you should still give your baby a chance at life. There are always things that you can do like adoptions for example. Even when parents think about adoption as being unfare to the child, does that mean that you should just kill it, get rid of it and get rid of any life that it had a chance to live.
Another scary area of this subject is that abortion doesn't always work. There is always a chance that the baby could survive the abortion and have to live life with serious consiquences. Sometimes the abortion didn't work and the baby is born before it is done developing. Some babies are born with a very short arm and then that arm will never continue to grow. The child will have to live with their deformities for the rest of their life. (right now i might read a portion of Gianna, which is a book about a girls life after she survived an abortion.)
I don't know what else to say on the topic at the moment, i'm still researching!!
