Abortion

Conservatives believe that abortion is the murder of a human being and that human life begins when the baby is first conceived. Most liberals believe that it is the mothers choice as to what to do with the baby.
I agree with the liberal side that it should be the mothers choice. Although I personally would not necessarily get an abortion, there should not be laws restricting other women from the choice to do so. There are many circumstances with pregnant women that would require them to do something as get an abortion in cases such as rape and even with being unable to finance for a child. Adoption seems like a good option but after carrying a baby for 9 months, that would create a major bond between mother and child and make it difficult for the mother to give the baby up. I think that the conservatives made a lot of good points in the debate but no matter what the circumstance is, there should not be laws regarding abortion because in the end it should be the mother's choice.
