Many myths and misconceptions surround abortion. One huge misconception is that the woman has a choice over her body, therefore it is her decision to choose to keep the unborn child or not. This is untrue if one looks at the situation logically. The child has half his mother's chromosomes, and half its father's chromosomes, so the child is independent from his mother, it has different DNA, which defines it as another form of life. The unborn child only i

Children are aborted, because the mother feels it's the only alternative. Those kind of absent-minded mothers couldn't be more wrong. There is over 1,650 families in California alone that wise to adopt, and over 17,830 more families willing to adopt as to save a baby from being aborted (Coppens 38). Do not forget getting pregnant does not happen overnight without a woman knowing it. There is countless ways that can prevent a woman from getting pregnant: condoms, chastity, family planning, and even "the pill". Condoms are wide spread, there is no excuse that one can not get a hold of one. There is also no excuse for not putting one on, two seconds of preparation can save a life time of torment. Chastity is a great choice to make, what better gift to give to your future spouse than your own virginity. Family planning is calculating when the woman is ovulating, and not having sex during that time, simple as that. "The pill" can be taken too, which is the most certain way if one still wants to have sex. All in all, No Sex Is Safe Sex!

Abortions do not take place until the mother realizes she is pregnant, the average women only realizes she is carrying a child until after about sixth weeks. While a mother may know she is pregnant, one average abortions don't happen until about the ninth or tenth week. There are five ways an abortion can be done: Dilation & Curettage (D&C), Suction or Vacuum Aspiration, Dilation & Evacuation (D&E), Soline Solution or Salt Poisoning, or Prostaglandin Chemical Abortion. Dilation & Curettage, D&C for short, is performed between the seventh and twelfth week, but most frequently happens during the eighth week. The procedure of D&C is as follows: a sharp curved knife cuts the tiny body up to tiny pieces, then cuts and scrapes the placenta from the inside of the uterus. The uterus is approached through the vagina. The cervix is stretched open before the procedure begins (Schwarz 22). Suction or Vacuum Aspiration uses a powerful suction tube, twenty-two times more powerful than that of a regular household vacuum. The tube is inserted through the cervix into the womb. The baby is then violently torn into pieces and sucked into a jar. This procedure also takes place between the seventh and twelfth week (Schwarz 23). Dilation & Evacuation, o
