Abortion

Should there be tighter rules on abortion, in certain aspects of it, definitely, in other's no.

If there is a risk to the mother, or the foetus itself, then yes obviously abortion is the only way.

Another reason for abortion is if the foetus has a strong possibility of being disabled, and whether the mother feels she can handle bringing up a child with disabilities, or whether the quality of life will be good enough, or if you already have other children whether it would fair on them.

Another reason might be because the mother became pregnant through rape.

However, they are the only reasons I personally would ever consider getting an abortion.

When it comes to women getting abortions because they've had a one night stand, or just not careful enough with her partner, and the foetus is healthy, then no, I don't believe they should be given an abortion.

Not one person on this planet asked to be born. Therefore if you're not careful enough, you'll have to grow up and face the consequences, which I believe majority of people do!

A girl I went to school with fell pregnant at the age of 17, but knew she would not be able to bring up a child in the life she was living. Did she have an abortion? No, she gave her daughter up for adoption.

Not only did she, in my view at least, give a couple something so precious in giving them a baby, but she also gave her daughter the chance to have a safe upbringing, one filled with happiness, joy, and safety.

I know for a fact she thinks about her every day, yet she never regrets a single minute of her adoption, yes it was hard, but she knows that her daughter is having the best out of life, one she could never have given her, and has made two people extremely happy.

So for me abortion is a matter of life and death, not because I wasn't careful enough.
