Many ladies are fond of this attitude which I believe should be eradicated in the society, abortion is now like a regular thing that every underage girls can be doing for fun, they never see it as anything that can endanger their lives but a way of enjoying life.
In this world today a 15year old girl is now coming out of the hospital all in the name of abortion, they are now god-daughters to auxiliary nurses who never know the difference between paracetamol and tetracycline, the quack who endangers little children's lives.
There are so many dangers attached to abortion, apart from death there is a high possibility that those people whom they believe so much can also make a terrible mistake during the cause of operation which can damage their womb and they will now be praying from one mountain to the other when they finally settle down, they will be using their ordeal to frustrate their husband that wasn't part of it not knowing that the consequences of what they did when they were young are now backfired.
Some people never know the usefulness of protection, some ladies detest protection and this leads to abortion, abortion processes are much, not just operating on the unborn child, some ladies can combine different concoctions just to get rid of pregnancy which can lead to untimely death.
Most ladies do not know about sex education, they all believe in opening their legs and closing them, parents are no longer raising responsible children in this generation because the rate at which little girls are getting pregnant is very rampant, should I say they failed as parents?
There are so many ways to prevent pregnancy instead of abortion, before sex there are drugs that ladies can use in other to neutralize sperm and if you can not do that, then you have to go for family planning, I know this has its side effects as well but it is better than aborting an innocent soul. Children are gifts from God and I do not support the act of abortion because such a person may not have the opportunity to give birth again if the wrath of God descends on such a person.
We have some circumstances where ladies can have an abortion and it is very legal, if you are married and the child in the womb has any syndrome, then the doctor will advise the parent to abort the child in other to have a better one, that one is fair and acceptable.
I once lived with a woman who was pregnant, one day she came back from antenatal and bursted into tears, she told me that the doctor said she should abort the child because the child would happen to be special, I believe we all know the meaning of special when it comes to cases like this after they ran series of test on her, I told her to follow the doctor's advice but the woman refused after having five children already, she was waiting for miracles and prayed maybe God will transform the child, she gave birth to the child after nine months and the girl refused to grow for a year, she was just like a three-month-old child at a year plus, she can not walk, she was indeed a special child, they always backed her like a child at a year plus, she spent her last money on the child, after two years the child can never walk and she died, what a loss, I believed if she had listened to the doctor she wouldn't have prolonged the matter to the stage of losing the child.
I know everyone has the right to their body but it will be a great loss when we are kissing our youths because of abortion so I would say
The government should frown at this act just to protect our girls, abortion is endangering the lives of the youths and anyone caught in such an act should be severely punished, any doctor found in such an act should have his or her license revoked, and there should be a strict act on this and the agency that deals with the use of illegal drugs should ban any drugs used for abortion in every country.
This is my opinion on abortion for this week's engagement week #53 of #hiveghana community prompt.
