Introduction- The act of abortion involves termination of pregnancy by expulsion or
removal of a foetus or embryo, prior to its survival outside the uterus. The thesis statement of
the essay is that the process of abortion should be legalised al around the world.
Discussion- Some of the primary reasons cited by women for considering abortion are
namely, distressed nature of their circumstances that include old age, poor socioeconomic
condition, and preference for a male child. Women often want to terminate their pregnancies
upon findings that they would give birth to girls, which in turn can be accredited to the false
traditional beliefs that emphasise on the birth of boys (Puri et al., 2015). They further
elaborated on the fact that most women often reported considering countless competing
factors while making their judgements on abortion, including anxieties over their health,
concerns regarding the wellbeing of already existing broods, monetary constraints, beliefs
and anticipations from family members, present gestational age, and the longing to carry their
pregnancy to full term. In addition, women often reported that their decision making process
was under the strong influence of their husbands and/or partners. This reflected the presence
of lowered decision-making that several pregnant females had to endure.
It has also been proposed by Diaz and Fiel, (2016) that there exists substantial
evidence on the impacts of teen childbearing on substantial reduction of educational
attainment among the mothers, thereby highlighting the fact that expenditures of motherhood
often force the females to sacrifice their reserves in self-education. In addition, under
circumstances when young females bear a child, her capability to obtain human capital gets
sternly restricted by the process of caregiving. In addition, constraints related to time and
energy also increase the likelihood of hindering educational attainment of the teenage
mothers, thus restricting the employment opportunities. Findings of the study also suggested
that early fertility creates stronger impacts on earnings for the teens born to older mothers, in
addition to affecting their degree attainment and earnings.
