Abortion is a descision! Why shouldnt woman have a choice? If abortion was legalized like it was back in the days a strong willed woman will find a way to abort the baby herself. Oops I fell down the stairs, I wasnt hungry so I didnt eat for 2 weeks, its only a telephone pole it wont hurt that much. A woman will do what they can to deport a baby if they dont want it. Why not do it a healthy way without hurting other people. Also have you heard of how many children go through the foster system now? If all woman who had an abortion kept their baby than put it into foster care the foster care system would be out of control! If a woman has a baby keeps it for a while and then hands it over to social services that is just one more child in the system that will have to find a loving home. Personally I would rather have an abortion than to have a child and put a child through emotional distress.  An abortion is a short procedure that kills a fetus. Having a baby and not loving it is a life long emotional rollar coaster for a child. Which is better?
