Latin America

I am writing this about abortion in Latin America. It is a crime for any woman to have an abortion, under any circumsance, even if the mother's life is at risk or if she got raped. I agree with that because I think abortion is a crime and it is killing a life. But in Cuba, it is legal under certain circumstances. The woman also have to get approval from the governent to have an abortion, mostly when the mother's life is at risk or if they have been raped. I don't think that is right because even if they were raped, they could give the baby up for adoption so someone who can't have a child can have one.
Believe it or not, even though it is illegal there but it is not here, they have a higher abortion rate and death rate of women that has had an abortion than we do. It is because the rich women hire private doctors to perform the abortion and the poor woman hire really bad doctors or they just do it themselves. I think that the doctors that do perform these abortions should have a consequence since they are breaking the law. That way other doctors will tell the woman no so they won't have to go to jail or get fired for doing an abortion. Also the government should keep a closer watch on doctors so they do know when a doctor is performing abortions. That way the abortion rate can go down.

  1. I agree with this because I believe that abortions should not be allowed, because it is wrong to kill an unborn baby.
