The Abortion

Abortion
This is topic that causes controversy in the entire world is a serious problem that should concern us all. As we know abortion is illegal, however, some countries try to legalize this kind of acts for many reasons one of them may be because they are over populated. On the other hand some third world countries are also trying to legalize abortion because poor people who can not afford buying ant conceptive drugs are forced to bring children to the world in bad living conditions and this situation increases the poor population of the country .In most of the cases abortion is being performed by irresponsible teenagers who begin to explore their sexuality at a very young age without thinking in the consequences of their acts.
Abortion is a serious theme. The Catholic Church says that is a sin because no one has the right to take away the life of another human being no matter the motive a person has. But no everyone thinks like that, before judging a person for their acts we have to know the reason for which they did it. Abortion has its pros and cons. some people think that it should be legalized because everyone is responsible for their own destiny and for that reason they have the right to decide what to do with their lives. In some cases abortion is necessary because the pregnancy implicates the risk of the mother of losing her life. Governments don’t care about this. Like for example in Colombia, there was a case in which a poor woman that was pregnant and whose two kids suffered of cancer was told that she had to receive a medicine that could cause her to lose her baby if not she would die. So the doctor decided the life of the baby was more important than her life.

She is very sick and has no money to give to her kids so if she die who is going to take care of her kids. The government is not going to help her, so what can she do? And this is not the only case in world. Nowadays these kinds of things are very common. When someone has been raped abortion should be considered like a possible solution because they are not responsible of what happened.
But the government doesn’t care about the people’s lives; they only care about themselves, so this has to change and create new manners to help some people. But there are some other people who are against this, and do not care about the possible reason a person has to do this things, like the president of Colombia, Alvaro Uribe who is against abortion.

This issue has become a controversy because everyone has a different point of view towards it. Some people are against it and some are not. In my opinion, in some cases abortion should be legalized like for instance in the case of the Colombian mother mentioned before, because not only her life depends on this but also the future of her two other kids. Some people think that we can get to an agreement and find the best solution to these problems but this subject is too complicated and there will always be someone against any decision that can be made because everyone has a different perspective when it comes to abortion. I believe that when it comes to take such a difficult decision you have to consider all the possible consequences it can bring.
