- The woman is responsible for her and her children’s welfare and support. If she cannot support a child, for whatever reason, it is her duty to act responsibly and not bring it into this world to burden others.
- Only the woman can know all the details of her life. Even the most loving of partners are separated at times, and people protect those they love from pain (a loving wife may not tell a husband she was raped, for example, for fear of the pain it would cause). As a fully capable, reasoning adult, she is the only one with both the information needed and the personal risk of life inherent in pregnancy.
- No law can account for all exceptions that can occur, and no court (with appeals) can act fast enough to rule on new exceptions.
- Just as with an end of life healthcare proxy for someone in a coma, she holds the healthcare proxy for her fetus so long as it is within her body. And just as a legal proxy can pull the plug over the objections of the rest of the family, she can likewise terminate a pregnancy over the objections of others involved.
- No one has the right to use of another's organs or tissues without that person's consent. Even if we were to assume the fetus was a separate legal person, she retains the right to withdraw consent to the use of her blood, lungs, heart, etc, at any time. At an extreme, even if one argues she cannot order it to vacate her uterus she could simply get a voluntary hysterectomy to recind her concent to use the remainder of her organs. The fetus would retain occupancy of the uterus, as required, but the result would be the same.
- No one should be forced to air medical nightmares and grief to get medical treatment. No one should be shamed for doing so, either. And yet, people demonize those who get late term abortions without learning the truth. Leave these poor parents alone to grieve. The more people spew hatred at them, the more I personally become pro-choice.
QUESTIONS

- Should abortion be legal or illegal?
- Does the human fetus have any value and any rights?
- Who decides about abortion?
Life is a right that must be given despite the difficulties that arise; I am not saying that a certain difficulty should be ignored, but it is of a being and the life of the one who is referred to and should not be taken away in such a way as is the case of abortion
ResponderBorrarEverything I'm going to write is about my personal opinion. In my piece of news, I was able to make clear my absolute support to abortion, I think is not terrible as the society how us, that's why I also think that is not morally wrong to wanna get the legal abortion. Anyway, since my perspective and what I know about this topic, the human fetus has not any rights, at least not in Colombia, because for the law the fetus is a creature and not a human being. For me, only the mother should have the power of this decision and should be escorted by a law, if someone doesn't agree, that's simple, don´t do it and that's it.
ResponderBorrarI don't agree or disagree, it depends of the circumstances of the pregnancy, because the woman is the only one who decides what will happen to her body, it's not the same, a pregnancy for rape as one will. In addition, at present, there are many ways to prevent a pregnancy.
ResponderBorrari agree with the legalisation of abortion, i do think the it depends in the circumstances, but as a women i belive that fisrt of all you have to stay truth to yourself and if your not in the capacity to being a mom just don´t have the baby. but do not put more and more babies to suffer povery, hunger, abuse, etc. i think that in part the goverment has to do more with the most poor people that do not know or have the money to prvent a pregnancy and later when they abort illegaly there a lot of womens that die. and this should not be happening.
ResponderBorrarWe should to step in to the other shoes , because we don’t know what they are facing . I am agree, just if the fetus health is in danger or if the mom was rapped. Those two conditions I think that are very notorious and acceptable to said Yes , to abortion, but into the other hand, I’m in disagrees with those women who practiced abortion just because didn’t protect with their pair . I am conscious how the abortion can affect a women that has an ilusion to have a baby but they can’t for health problems.
