What Are The Pros And Cons Of Abortion?

This is a gigantic topic to tangle with. In some cultures, it is frowned upon to have girls, which result in many children being aborted due to cultural differences.  The cons are, if you know the child will not survive, nor the mother, and there is no way around it, you abort to save the life of another. As well as in cases of rape or incest.  These are all factors to be considered.  Read, Cider House Rules by John Irving, the movie doesn't explain half as much, then consider what abortion means to you.  A doctor once refused a girl an abortion.  She hung herself. When her father found out why, he shot himself. The doctor no longer refuses peoples choices and has been imprissoned for opening the first abortion clinic in canada.   Also, look at the social implications.  In some cultures, children who are of mixed breed, often due to mothers being empregnated by soldiers are outcasts and live the life of animals as they are hated by their own and no government will take responsability for the indiscretion of the soldier overseas
