Don’t Take the Life You Can’t Create
To abort or not is a vast topic with diverse opinions from different people. However, I will share my honest take on this subject as the prompt demands.
Being a woman, I understand the feeling of having an unplanned pregnancy. Sometimes, a mom will be nursing a three-month-old baby and suddenly discover that she is already pregnant with another. Sometimes, single ladies playing their games get trapped with unwanted pregnancy, and the question of whether to abort or not emanates.
There are varieties of reasons why people opt for abortions, and for whatsoever reason, abortion is evil. Abortion means taking away life, whether you like it or not. See, it doesn't matter whether you say that after all, it's still blood. This is a common word we use to deceive ourselves. The blood is turning into a fetus, right? And you know it; you know the end product of that blood you want to waste, which is a living being.
Let's be more practical here. You decide to plant corn, and just when the seed is about to sprout, you decide again to uproot it so it doesn't grow to germinate fruits. The intention was to stop the fruit, so you uprooted it because you are aware that leaving it means expecting the fruit during the harvest. So leaving the blood formation will also turn out to be a living being in 9 months' time, so what are we saying? Abortion is abortion regardless of how we choose to paint it; it's simply evil.
If you are not ready to take responsibility for a child, maybe because you are poor or emotionally unstable or whatever, then prevent the pregnancy, simple.
Nowadays married couples are the most people patronizing abortion, all in the name of child spacing, or they aren't ready when you can simply prevent the pregnancy or accept your mistake in good faith. Even if you wake me up in my dream, I will stand by my opinion that abortion is bad; don't take a life that you can't create.
Think of it in another dimension; some great people today were products of unplanned pregnancies, but their parents chose to keep them. My uncle, a medical doctor practicing outside the country, is a typical example. What if my grandma decided to abort him back then? And many other people like that. Taking away life is what abortion means, and it's evil, sincerely.
Again, the question of if fathers should have a say when their partners decide to get an abortion is not even negotiable. Even though the woman bears the whole physical risk and medical procedures, a case like this should be on mutual agreement. After all, the pregnancy didn't come from the air; someone was responsible, someone owns the sperm. Whatever the case, mutual agreement is the goal.
In a nutshell, my opinion is simple: don't take a life you can't create. I will never support abortion except in a rape case.

It's never advisable for us to kill a baby we can't create ourselves
Awww
Glad u like it
While I agree with you and I can as well call myself and anti abortion.
It's worth noting that I'll stand with some people who deserve to have an abortion, if;
It's my opinion though, but aside those two, I believe people should either abstain from sex if they're not married or indulge in birth control if they're married.
Well, these reasons here for an abortion are valid , aside that people should flee from it
The issue of abortion is a very tricky one and it’s funny how most young people abort like it’s a normal thing
Aside special reasons, abortion is really not a good thing.
Yea..some singles abort like it's already a norm
Lol
It’s sad
some great people today were products of unplanned pregnanciesThis is one of the things that gets many people trapped. 10 became successful out of hundreds or thousands who were a result of unwanted pregnancy, but people keep emphasizing on those ten and refuse to see the hundreds of mass failures suffering for the actions of their parents.
This one dey burl, but mehnn...it's not hard to do family planning naw
You get ? This thing has solution
Abortion is bad, and another word for murder so I can never support it.
Yesooo my dear
And thanks for the curation
You are welcome 😊 🙏
Thank you
For sure the biggest fear of abortion normalized is people treat it as a pill that you can take and the problems disappear which it isn't... People shouldn't use it as a regular anti-baby technique...like you mention there are so many other choices that are safer and better to prevent unexpected pregnancies.
Exactly ...the moment pple started seeing it as a pill, it became a normalized act..and it's bad u know
Yea, unplanned pregnancy can be prevented
I won't say anything. Because I have both kind of thoughts at a same time. Sometimes my mind days it's not ok to do abortion as it's a life. But at the same time I don't think it's ok to bring a baby to this world when parents are not capable enough to give the baby a good future. It's a controversy within myself and both side I have equal logic and impossible to decide.
I understand Intishar , but what happened to family planning ? Contraceptives or natural method ?
Family planning is important, and it's necessary to know how many kids parents want to bring into this world.
Contraceptives have side effects. Using co***m seems the right choice in my opinion.
Yeah, in the case of rape, pregnancy can be terminated. Although, I'm not in total support of abortion. Thanks for sharing.
Not in total support too but in some cases
Abortion is one thing i can’t imagine myself doing i can’t take life i can’t create the high rate of abortion in our country is high.
Simple...don't take a life u can't create
