Getting rid of the foetus due to certain ill circumstances is a right thing to do. But if they are doing for no reason then from my point of view it is wrong. But still, all human got their rights to do what they think is right for themselves, why would they bother about my point of view. No matter what, we can't stop them at all. Human is supose to be intelligent and wise creature.....so how come we are comparing human with animal.....human are creative and has invented or innovated great things in their living history...they can also think what is right or wrong for themselves....whereas for the animal they only follows the life cycle that the nature have created for them. if we, human also start thinking like the birds than we would not have achieved what we have in today's world. I guess we still would be a bushman.....running around. Since medical field has bring a great revolution in human life, than why not take advantage of it if it benefits to you and your family. There maybe many reason why people wanna get rid of their babies....maybe coz the baby has a down symdrome.....or couples cannot offer to bring up the child.....or it was due to one night stand.....or she was raped.....or coz they were unmarried couple.....or they were not ready yet....or their career is more important right now than having a baby.....!!! Whatever the reason maybe and if they are not ready to give full comitment and dedication to their child then i would definite say that it would not be a right thing to bring a little life into this misery world to be sufffer and be isolated by the parents. Coz the child might developed a pschological problems due to the parent's abandon.The most irritating of all is when the couples get rid of their baby b'cos it a daughter and they wanted is a son.......that's really sucks......!!! Another thing is that.....when we put a topic in the sahja.....everyone can write anything that comes into their mind whether it's a truth or it's a craps......but like what sweetiepie says....."One have to put themselves into another person's shoes to really understand how he/she is feeling or going through the suffering". Like in my case too, i have a handicapped brother who is the youngest in the family. He can't talk, walk and see anything.....all day what he does is lying on the bed or sitting on the wheel chair inside the four walls for the days to go on . When my mum was pregnant with my bro.....she did sense that something was not right coz the youngest baby in the family was shaking too much in her tummy compare to the rest.....but my dad put off issue by saying that it was her imagination.....all baby kick and shake.....maybe some shake a bit more. As the time pasted, my mum thought that she was a fool not to go for the check ups.....maybe she would have found out about the baby's disabilities and could have abort the baby rather than bring him in this world to suffer......coz my mum can't be with him 24hrs a day as she got a house work to do and sometime due to that he will he staying soaked in his own urine or shit until one of us found out about it. Another thing is that if he's in pain or sick then there is no way that he can tell us how he's feeling rather than crying all day. Then my parent had to figure out what wrong with him. Not only he is disable.....due to him my mum is also disable......she can't enjoy a life of her own......she can't go for parties, friend's house for chit chat or go for a whole day shoping......coz he needs her by his side all the time.....to chage his diapers, clean him and feed him. Lots of money was spend on him to find cure but it was invain, untill my parents lose hopes on doctors and witch doctors. Now they are only hoping for a miracle to happen and i doubt it will happen too. I says that it would be the right choice to abort my baby brother when he was still unborn after looking at how my brother and mum have been living with their lives.I might sound a bit harse and cunning but that's the truth.....you'll only know how it like when it happen in the own family. It's easy to say that abortion is inhuman thing to do......and ya i also agree.....but have u guys ever tot for the baby and the family.....what kind of problems they might be facing......here we have to measue both pros and cons.....if the disadvantages of having the baby is higher than it will be correct thing to do abortion rather than all party involved get suffered. So i strongly agree that Getting rid of the foetus due to "certain ill circumstances" or "they are not ready for the child" is a right thing to do but not just for fun.......and abortion should be legalized so that woman will not make a mistake going to unprofessional doctors and risk their own life in return.
