  4. Abortion should be accepted in the case of incest and rape. • The importance of this is that young girls are being raped in their households. • They are convinced and threatened, usually when young by relatives

  5. Main Points • Abortion is a safe medical procedure • A women has the right whether to bring her child into the world or not • Incest babies have increase risk of congenital disorders and deaths http://swc2.hccs.edu http://womensissues.about.com

  6. Critics states it causes complications • Abortion is a safe procedure. • Surgical abortion is one of the safest • 10x less risk of health complications than continuing with a pregnancy • Medical abortions have the same safety affects • 88% of women who go through with abortions are less than 13 weeks pregnant • 97% of those women don’t have complications • 2.5% have minor complication that can be fixed • But, only 0.5% have major complications www.prochoice.org www.ourbodiesourselves.org

  7. Critics say abortion allows people to avoid responsibility. • A women that is raped and and becomes pregnant has the right to abort her baby • For Example: • If a rape victim gets pregnant, not only did the rapist forced himself on her but also forced a baby on her too. He forced her into pregnancy, labor , and years of responsibility for a child she didn’t even consent to create. Therefore, that woman has the right to choose whether or not to live with such responsibility. • People who are against it say • Adoption and parenting is another option • http://www.seanmcdowell.org, www.patheos.com,

  8. Incest Babies are at RISK • According to Dr. Nightingale, all humans have two genes for every characteristic, one from each parent • ( ex. Eye color, hair color, height, skin complexion. etc.) • If a genetic defect exists, the closer the relationship between the parents of the child, the greater the probability that the child will inherit the defect • about 30 to 40 percent of incestuous children are born abnormal • WOULD YOU PUT YOUR BABY AT RISK!? http://news.google.com/newspaper

  9. REWINDD!! • Only .5% of women who obtain the procedure have major complications • Incest babies can be abnormal, not always • Women who are raped didn’t ask for it
