Introduction
It is no secret that questions regarding the “correctness” and “accuracy” of the abortion procedure are certainly among the most contentious and controversial today. Nevertheless, based on the student’s subjective opinion, knowledge, and understanding of honest and ethical aspects, it is essential to emphasize that abortion is a morally permissible intervention but only taking into account exceptional cases. In general, terminating a pregnancy is the key to a woman’s prosperity, social and moral well-being, and ability to control the future. Nevertheless, the proof of this statement requires an appeal to the following points.
Discussion
Indeed, people have the right to perceive abortion as a form of human murder. However, it is necessary to highlight that abortion can be morally permissible at any stage of embryo and fetus development. Noteworthy, both a fetus and an embryo are part of a mother’s body before birth and can hardly have the right to life. Furthermore, the decision on the procedure is a purely personal problem of a woman, in which no one should interfere.
Moreover, the birth of a child is a joy and happiness that cannot be compared with anything. However, suppose the expectant mother is a victim of a rapist or a hostage of circumstances that prevent her from living a full life (financial instability or health problems), in that case, abortion will be considered a solution to potential difficulties in a family. On the one hand, relying on the moral principles familiar to many, procreation is not murder. However, an immoral act can be considered a case in which a child can live in terrible conditions that interfere with their comprehensive development.
Conclusion
Thus, the termination of pregnancy is still one of the ways to solve a wide variety of problems. Hence, forced birth is nothing but a violation of human rights and freedoms, which are equally moral. Every woman has the right not to cause harm and the opportunity to lead an individual lifestyle, as long as it does not interfere with others.
