Abortion A Choice Against Women By Fr. Frank Essay

Abortion is an extremely heated topic in America and throughout the world. As a woman, I am interested in reading both sides of the debate. Reading very persuasive things from both sides can sometimes make it hard to know where you stand, but every now and again an article like Abortion: A Choice Against Women by Fr. Frank A. Pavone, National Director of Priest for Life comes along and you laugh. As a stable, functioning human being we should all be entitled to make our own decisions. To Pavone, women seem to be creatures incapable of doing so. I do agree with him when he says that women are kind of forced into abortions with feelings of guilt, loneliness and shame brought upon by families and societies but I do not agree that is always the case. Women are very able and competent to live and be decisive in a very independent manner. Everyone knows what their life situation is, where they stand and what they want and women are no exception. There are very few people who are oblivious; Pavone may be one of them. Women are not all living their lives solely on someone else s mood swing. Teenage pregnancy can be the exception: most are so horrified that they re pushed into abortion because their families don t want to deal with it and don t want their child to be burdened. Timing is very key in what works in life. This is not the ideal teen life anymore; you don t get married at 16 and raise a family.
