Outline For One Child Persuasive Speech
ShaKela LaSha Holloway
Topic: Is a “One Child” policy violating basic human rights?
Specific Purpose Statement: To persuade my audience that the “One Child” policy is violating basic human rights.
Type of Persuasive Speech: Policy
Organizational Pattern: Monroe’s Motivated Sequence

Introduction:
I. Attention: In China, this policy is very common. A common situation is where a woman is pregnant with her second child. An example of the harsh population control is the case of one woman pregnant with her second child. The police found and arrested her. The woman was forced to attend a local family planning center, where she was injects with rivanol, which is an abortion drug. This drug is suppose to allow the baby to be born died. Well

Personal Credibility:
III. Thesis:

Now that I have gave you a little background story, let’s begin with why this is a problem.

Body
(NEED):
I. The problem is those women are being denied the right to have a second child, by making them undergo different types of lethal procedure.
A. Because of this policy, women have to go through: abortions, jail time, labor camps.
B. If the woman somehow does get by and have a baby and it is a girl, they usually abandon the girl leaving her to die on the streets.
a. Statistics: according to a news article written in 2001 on news.bbc.co.uk, every year, perhaps a million girl fetuses are aborted and tens of thousands of girl babies are abandoned.
b. Examples: abortions, jail, labor camps, death. The drug named rivanol is the most common drug that is used to kill these babies.
c. Expert Testimony: at a 1995 United Nation conference on Woman, former Secretary of State, stated that “It is a violation of human rights when women are denied the right to plan their own families, and that includes being forced to have abortions or being sterilized against their will.”

Now that we have discussed the need or problem, let’s discuss the satisfaction or what needs to be done about

    As a reflection, the Gonzales v. Carhart case in 2007 had a significant impact on the way abortions were performed. It established the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act which prevented D&E procedures, the dilation of a woman’s cervix followed by the extraction of the unborn child. (Kennedy 2) All doctors that knowingly performed the procedure were punished through the form of jail time or their license being revoked (Kennedy 8) since this was looked upon as inhumane. Also, making abortions illegal directly violates women’s human rights according to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The document states that slavery and servitude is a violation of the rights (UN General Assembly 1948), so the denial of abortions violates women’s human rights because their bodies are slaves to the government and they have to serve the government with their body, meaning continuing with an unwanted pregnancy. The document also states that everyone should feel secure and when this is not the case for the women that attempt to be an abortion; they fear for their life. Nevertheless, legalizing abortions is the best choice for the nation because it comes with benefits. Sadly, before abortions, they were many births that resulted in children being sent to orphanages since…

The use of these drugs frequently results in multiple births, which leads to the death of one of the infants, often after an agonizing struggle for survival.

    People who choose not to have an abortion and don’t want their children some of the times end up putting them into foster care when they are just babies. The chances are they are going to grow up in a foster care home if that happens because on average 2% of children adopted were under the age of one in the U.S.A. Growing up in a…

    Sterilization is the surgical process after which a person can no longer reproduce. The process in permanent and irreversible. It is a choice for people but laws are considering to enforce it on the unfortunate group of drug-addicted mothers. The drug-addicted mothers are wholly held responsible for the Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS), a group of problems that a new born has to face because the mother was dependant on illegal or prescribed drugs. The baby becomes addicted with the mother, and is still dependent on drug at the time of birth. With an increase in the number of babies born addicted to drugs, the lawmakers considered forced sterilization upon drug-addicted mothers as the most effective solution to eradicate this issue forever. However, such a prospect is appalling as it violates human rights, contradicts established laws, legalizes the practice of eugenics, and is a very risky process.…

    Even though abortions are illegal it doesn’t stop women conducting their own, with 68,000 women a year dying through unsafe abortions or suffering from long term health complications such infections and genital trauma, all of which are consequence of the current legislation. Reasons why women choose to abort this way is due to that they don’t have access to the facilities that insure safe procedures therefore are left with a no choice but to put themselves at a risk. Another consequence of the current legislation is that women are not held equally within the law, as it restricts women of the rights over their bodies, yet there are no current laws that exhibit these same unjust controls over men. This failure by the government to recognise this, has caused “gender-specific harm”, as it confines women to either two groups when antenatal, that being either pregnant or deviant. Therefore, not only causing mental and physical consequences, for women but social…

    What is to happen to them? Abortions are a personal decision for the woman and for her body. Abortions can be done because the woman may not be in a time of their life where they are ready for children (financially, emotionally, relationship/ age-wise). People often say "USE PROTECTION!" and then "IT'S YOUR FAULT", but how do you know? Contraceptives are not always 100% effective, even when combining more than one. Sex shouldn't be something people use as a fear tactic. Sex shouldn't be taught as a punishment. Additionally, the growing fetus may be physically harming the woman or girl or destructive to itself. And to add to the original point, 14,000 abortions have been a result of rape or incest. If you were to place yourself in that womans shoes, how much would you hate yourself to be forced to carry your assaulters…

    (3) For my readers, I plan to target the pro-choice audience who are still against minor abortion without parental consent. Some people in favor of women's choices still oppose to this highly controversial subject. I also plan to reach out to the general public, which include parents and lawmakers of the nation: the Legislatures, Senators, and Judges. (I do not plan to persuade the people who oppose abortion to convert to abortion advocates because that is an entirely different…

    A lot of children become orphans because their parents give birth to them accidentally. In recent years, I have heard of a lot of such cases. I remember that there was one last week: after a woman had given birth to a baby, she put it into a plastic bag and left it in a rubbish bin. When the baby was discovered by people afterwards, it had already died. I wonder if the baby was saved, it would be another orphan. I believe that if people would like to give birth to a baby, they have to take up their responsibilities of taking care of the baby…

    Females choose to end or put a stop to the pregnancy because they don’t feel like they would be able to carry such a big responsibility. They may be right about not ready for the responsibility, but if they weren’t ready for it, they shouldn’t have taken the risk in the first place. I believe this because it is not fair for the unborn baby who can not defend itself or can talk to tell the girl no the child should have rights too even without speech.…

    Some women use this method as a fix all. They mess up and they feel that all they have to do it abort the baby. So they have several abortions and think they can keep on doing that. Now that is a life that they are killing and not giving that child the chance to live, because they didn’t like the guy that got them pregnant. It’s a shame how so people will abuse such measures as this one. There are so many other things you can do to if you can’t keep the baby adoptions are number 1. Having an abortion for the sake of not wanting the child because you weren’t careful, is a reason why I am against abortion.…

    Women should have the abortion due to poverty. They are unable to support a child by not having enough money. If women do not give up on a child, they have to deal with many difficulties.
