The violent debate on abortion is one of the most challenging issues in modern society. The pro-life and pro-choice parties have developed valid points over the years to support their sentiments, and it is apparent that picking either side of the debate leaves one questioning his or her choice. It is apparent that the debate is far from over, and it might take a very long time before society comes to a consensus on the most plausible sentiment. It is, however, possible to develop a neutral ground for both parties.
A critical look at the sentiments forwarded by the members of the opposing groups in the debate on abortion reveals that the parties have more in common than meets the eye. These common factors can be used to develop a neutral ground that will put the highly emotional debate to an end. The trick would be to develop a campaign that addresses the common factors between the opposing groups.
One of the common grounds between the pro-life and pro-choice groups is their desire to see a reduction in the number of unwanted pregnancies. The debate would be eliminated if the number of unwanted pregnancies was reduced significantly. The debate thrives through the fuel of the many cases of unwanted pregnancies that are reported annually. Influencing the members of the two opposing sides to focus on advocating the elimination of unwanted pregnancies would shift their focus from the emotional debate. The campaigns creating awareness about the use of different forms of contraceptives are supported by members from both sides of the debate on abortion. The campaigns can be used as neutral grounds to mend the division between the two parties.
