Let us examine what is actually happening when abortion occurs. A woman falls pregnant; she wishes to terminate this pregnancy for a variety of reasons. The key issue to determining whether this abortion is right or wrong is whether the woman is destroying a human life, or merely inhibiting a life to begin. Whether or not this is the case there are still moral issues to consider that apply on

Abortion in circumstances where the mother is able to take care of the child and support it sufficiently is a more challenging ethical debate. In circumstances where having the baby is obviously a bad choice for the mother and/or the baby, there is lesser grounds to argue that the pregnancy should not be aborted. But if the mother simply doesn't want to go through with the pregnancy because perhaps it was accidental, or she does not wish to be a mother, is quite controversial. In situations where the baby would be disadvantaged in the world, or the mother is viably unable to play the role of the parent, then quite often, aborting is the logical choice. If the woman just doesn't want the baby it is far different. It is still her body. She is still in control and free to decide. But whether it is ethical to abort the pregnancy and thus terminate a potential human life is the broad problem that fuels the never-ending abortion debate.
