OTM #1New Reality
The on the media for this week it is talking about the right of abortion. Abortion is a topic that has always been touche. It is a topic that many people get very sucked into it. Either they are for abortion or they are against abortion. Pro life and pro choice is an ongoing was that many people have a hard time swallowing. It's either you are pro life, or you are pro choice.where does Utah stand on this predicament?

"A woman must receive state-directed counseling that includes information designed to discourage her from having an abortion, and then wait 72 hours before the procedure is provided. Counseling must be provided in person and must take place before the waiting period begins, thereby necessitating two trips to the facility".
"Public funding is available for abortion only in cases of life endangerment, rape and incest, and when the procedure is necessary to prevent long-lasting damage to the woman's physical health".
So here in the place that we live in they offer the options for someone to take their choice, and believe what is right for them. In my opinion abortion is all up to the situation. If a woman was raped, abused, or forced into a marriage that they do not agree with; I believe that they have that right to abort. Having to live with that kind of trauma is hard enough as it is. If a women had intercourse willingly, and happened to get pregnant that is a different thing. She made that choice of participating in that activity, and now has the result of it. It was a conscious decision that she made. I believe abortion is not right, but it is a personal choice that someone is making, and we have to learn to respect the choices they want to make.
