a-bor-tion : the removal of an embryo or fetus from the uterus in order to end a pregnancy
(http://dictionary.reference.com/)
What do you think of it? Some say it's a sin, it's absolutely immoral, the baby is innocent, the adult should be punished for doing it and some say that abortion should be legalised. Some even say that, anyone who have the idea or even think about it, should send to hell when dead, and prisoned when alive. O_O
I was browsing through in net the other where I came across this --> Should abortion be legalised in Malaysia? I've then popped the same question in ShoutOut to see what are the shouters view and opinions about abortion. After that, I popped the same question to my best friend when she came over to my house the other night and she too got a lot to say about abortion. So I thought why not I blog about it since I think this topic is pretty informational.
Abortion process is still an illegal act in Malaysia except for some special case where the pregnancy harm the mother's health. Other than that, one can be jailed if she's caught aborting the baby. But from what I've told, the clinics that do illegal abortion are everywhere right now. In fact, you can just easily get rid of the pregnancy by paying something like RM 400-RM 700 and the process is done in just a few hours. Some even promised that it wont hurt a bit and it wont leave scars. Or you have to do is bring over the money and I.C and they'll kautim (settle) everything else for you.
After a looong conversations with all my friends, I still think that abortion should be legalised but it depends on the scenario. Why?
1) Some couples were blamed for not taking the necessary steps to protect themselves from having a baby. But what if they did? Wat if, after all the precautions, they still ending up with pregnancy and not ready to settle down yet? Like the condom got holes in it or something wrong with the Pills. Let say the couples are only 18-22 years old? They are not financially stable and this baby will only ruin their future?
2) What about raped victims? And those betrayed and drugged by someone they trusted. In some cases, girls were drugged without knowing who did it. They are just as innocent as the baby.
So in such circumstances, I think they should be allowed to get rid of it LEGALLY.
But NEVER put abortion as your first option if you have other choice because it will still ruined your life even after you did it. Abortion will only leads to un-imaginable side effects, both on mental and physical in long term. (You might not be able to conceive pregnancy after doing it!) Abortion is definitely not a easy way out of this problem.. It's NOT! It'll only bring you more trouble in the future if you think of it in a long term. And if you are really pregnant, be grateful instead of hate. And think of it as a gift from God and not punishment and you'll feel better.
Be responsible, love your body and say TAK NAK to pre-marital sex. (if possible)
