Yes or No to a new accidental life?

Pro-life vs Pro-choice?


Pro-life :-

Pros	Cons
Every life has its own right to live. It’s a gift from God and therefore you should treasure life.	No con to this that I can think of. I truly agree that life is a miracle.
“You should be responsible of whatever you’ve done!”	That only applies to conception due to own actions. What about rape victims? Besides, accidents do happen! Did you know that the failure risk of condoms is 14%? About 14 out of 100 sexual intercourse will result in pregnancy!
Having abortion anytime you like will encourage killing lives	It depends on the definition of life: is it after conception, implantation, primitive streak or birth? Does abortion means killing a life to you? It’s truly subjective.
As a mother, it’s instinctive to love your child. You will regret killing your own flesh and blood.	There are many cases of child abuse out there. Not all mothers are the same. Who can be sure that forcing a mother to bear a child will provide the child a good future?
It’s not accidental; it’s your destiny. You are destined to have this baby.	Perhaps after the abortion, someone can turn the table around and say that it’s destined to be this way too?
Abortions are illegal in many countries such as Malaysia.	On the other hand, abortions are legal in countries such as UK.
Certain religions* banned abortions	No comments on this. It is definitely a teaching to follow but whether it’s practical or not, it’s a different issue. Since usually these religions prevent contraception as well, there is no way that one can plan his/her own family.

Pro-choice :-

Pros	Cons
It’s your choice to have a baby when you are prepared for it	Working mothers will wait and wait. It increases the risk of having down syndrome babies when a mother reaches the age of 40 and above.
It’s justified to abort when you do not want the baby.	It’s not like shopping that you can return or throw away things that you don’t like after purchasing.
It’s hard to be a single-parent	Abortions encourages one-night-stands. It’s funny that ppl nowadays do not know that there is contraception out there.
“Accidents do happen, but we cannot allow it to continue”	Have ppl heard of morning-after pills? Also, don’t these ppl learn from mistakes? Why do they undergo multiple abortions?
Abortions are safe in the modern age of science and technology	Repeated abortions will cause scarring in the uterus (Asherman’s syndrome) and can lead to miscarriage and infertility in the future.
Abortion allows family planning. It’s practiced in China, which encourages its citizen to have only one child. Singapore used to practise it too by allowing 2 in a family.	If it’s the law, then the law is forcing a family to have a limited number of children. It’s not a matter of choice anymore. Besides, the reason why Singapore has lifted that law is because the country is now facing the problem of low population. The funny thing is, they are now encouraging citizen to get married by having a matchmaking program called the SDU (Social Development Unit, and also joked to be the club for Single, Desperate and Ugly)

There are numerous discussions online pondering upon this topic, either you are a pro-life or a pro-choice person. Honestly, I am towards pro-choice because I think that everybody should be given a choice to decide whether or not to take the responsibility and if decided, therefore must carry out the role perfectly. There is no point of having a mother carrying a baby without a definite guarantee that she can take care of her child. Also, there is also a tendecy for child abuse too if for instance, the child is going to remind the mother of poignant memory, i.e. if the child is the baby of a rapist. I suppose that situations can differ and therefore the child-bearer should be given a choice and decide her own future.

But again, above is clearly an one-person's view. I have summarised the pros and cons of practising pro-life and pro-choice policies. Your comments are most welcome.

So, what say you??
