Abortion and Teenage Pregnancy


Once, before class started I heard a classmate saying that crime rate has gone down because of abortion. This caught my attention. To many of us, it sounds kind of absurd to think that one of our kids could turn into a delinquent. The sad part is, this is so true. As time goes by, more teenage girls are getting pregnant. This is a scary thought to many of them; reason being they are young and are not ready to bring a baby to this world. Another reason for teenage "mom to be" girls to be scared is knowing that their parents will be disappointed. Because of this, they turn to abortion. Abortion is a horrific process, babies are Angels sent from heaven. I believe that "No right is more basic than the right to live. And the untimely death of a young child is among life's most awful tragedies." (Tribe 3).
