I certainly believe it should be legal, even though I am against abortions because parents simply dont want the child, it is better for everyone if that child is not born into an unloving home where it may be abused or adopted out, and growing up knowing it was not wanted and abortion was an option for it. I would be devastated if mum told me she may have aborted me.
Also, having abortion ILLEGAL would put some people in horrible horrible positions. There is of course the reason that the mother has been raped and would have to give birth to a baby that was brought about by an illegal act, but what about if having the baby puts the mother in serious danger and could kill her. Most people in this situation would choose to keep the mother safe, and kill the baby. I am sorry but I would rather a 20 year old woman live than an unborn baby that has been growing for what, 12 weeks? If abortion was illegal then it is like saying well sorry mum but you are just going to have to die, this unborn baby is more important than you.
