An Ultrasound
before
Abortion?
There is
currently a bull running through the legislation of Wisconsin on an abortion
bill. The bill would require the female to get an ultrasound before ending her
pregnancy. You would have to find a clinic that would be able to perform a
correct and accurate ultrasound, but the catch is that the clinic has to have
clearance for admittance to a hospital. The reasoning behind this bill is that
many women have regretted getting an abortion and sometimes seeing the
ultrasound picture may change their minds and not want to go get an abortion.
Planned Parenthood is the most common place in Wisconsin for an ultrasound.
Under state law the patient wouldn’t be required to take an ultrasound. They’re allowed to just go through with it
without thinking about it.
Since you know a little bit about
the law, I am going to share my feeling with you on this subject. I believe
that we should allow women to get an abortion in certain situations. I believe
this because in the terrible world we live in today there are vigorous crimes.
If a girl got pregnant by her molester she would even be more scarred than she
already is because that child would be a memory of what happen that day or
night. That wouldn’t be healthy at all for the child or the mother. Also if
someone does get raped it’s not like they were going out and giving themselves
up. They were forced into something that they didn’t want to and they shouldn’t
be punished because of that. I am against abortion in any other way because if
you weren’t raped or sexually abused, you know the risk you take and if you’re
willing to take that risk, you can LIVE with the child and learn through your
actions.
Lastly I believe that if you choose
to have unprotected sex you should be willing to deal with the consequences of
your actions. “If you can’t do the time, don’t do the crime.” My mother has
always said that to me about certain things in life and even though many people
think that it would never happens to them. It happens to a lot of people and it
doesn’t make it right to take a life away because they chose to take the risk.
With a rape victim that is unfair because they were forced to do something and
they shouldn’t have to live with the memory if they don’t want to because that
can destroy someone for life. So why risk making the child a burden to the
mother and make the mother remember what happened to her and resent the child.
No child deserves that because it can kill them even before they start living.
Thanks for reading and I hope to
hear back from you soon! This is a topic I think we need to cover because it is
so relevant. Also I would love to hear your opinions so please don’t be afraid
to comment or write back to me! It would be greatly appreciated.

I think that everyone should get an ultra sound, because even if they are a victim of rape, the child could still be amazing. Even though the pregnancy came about in a horrible way, the life inside the woman could still be a blessing. The woman should have the chance to see the life, and might decide that she really does want to keep it. For those that were not victims of rape, they should not be allowed to get abortions. They made the decision and if they become pregnant because of their choice, they shouldn’t get the option to kill the baby. It is murder, and they shouldn’t be allowed to kill their child because they don’t want it. It’s their fault for what happened and they should have to live with their actions. The choice to keep their kid might even be the best decision they made.
