“Out of the 42 million abortions yearly, about 68,000 women will die of unsafe abortions and 5 million will suffer with health complications”(medreviews.com). Why would you take your baby’s life and risk yours as well? Many abortions have the mother doing actions like drinking bleach or inserting things inside her body to kill the baby. While this solves the mother’s problem, it also risks her life by causing poisoning or internal bleeding. “The main causes of death from unsafe abortions are hemorrhage, infection, sepsis, and genital trauma”(medreviews.com).

Not only do abortions end an innocent baby’s life without even giving him or her a chance, but abortions reduce the number of babies that can be adopted by loving families.

A foster baby would be a blessing for them, and they would have the opportunity to be the parents that the baby deserves, and the baby would have a chance to live life. On average, over four million babies are born each year. Four out of every ten will be aborted. “Abortion is like robbery, life is the most precious gift, and abortion steals that gift away”(yahoo.com). This quote is true.

People think it is a ¨convenience¨ for themselves to have their baby aborted, but in reality people often regret their decisions. The baby is its own human being who deserves a chance to experience life and the ups and downs throughout it. If abortion is considered legal, then we are sending a message that human life has little value. Why should the child pay for the wrong doing of another?
