Abortion, the termination of a pregnancy can count as a bad type of behaviour. Two doctors have to agree for a person to end a pregnancy.Abortion can be carried out in England and wales until the 24 week march and they can be seen as immoral behaviour . Abortion can also cause later health problems and can even risk fertility later on.
The number of abortions taking place in England and Wales it rising according to this websitehttp://http//news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/4720813.stm. They state that the age is also decreasing.

There could be various reasons for a person waiting to abort , for example, as outlined by this website http://http//www.4abortion.net/ingles/reasons.htm
pregnancy was not planned or wanted ,not ready to have a baby yet, inconvenient time of life or the child interferes with goals ,financial concerns , pressure by parents or other family members , fear of people finding out about the pregnancy . They go on to state different types of abortion- such as ' social abortion and emotional abortion'.

Personally I do not believe in abortion as I think if you did not want to become pregnant you should of used some sort of contraception, however I do understand that people get caught up in them moment and accidents do happen. I think its is down to individual preference as to whether to have an abortion- it is their body and their choice about what to do. I know people who have had an abortion and I can say that it was one of the hardest decisions of their life- many began to regret this decision later. I do sympathise with those who have aborted as it must of been a horrid experience to go through.
Ethical issues are also raised in abortion in relation to the unborn child. I think that once and egg has been fertilised then its alive, its a living being surviving through your umbilical cord. I do think it is unethical to terminate because as the child is technically alive it does have the right to live, what do you feel?
People who are from religious backgrounds can become disowned if they decide to abort. I think this is wrong because it is their individual choice about what to do and they should become disregarded from their family and friends for the simple fact they have made a choice.
Overall, there are many opinions on abortion, I personally could not abort , but I would not hold it against people if they did. I think that an abortion must take gut to go through with is a massive decision for a person to make. I also think that there should be more done in relation to sex education in society and feel that it might educate individuals not only in terms of abortion but also the importance of taking precautions so abortion do not have to happen. What do you think?
I agree that 24 weeks is seriously pushing it when it comes to abortion, I completely understand that there are extenuating circumstances, but if you don’t notice that you’ve put on weight or the sickness or the stopped periods…the there must be something not right. At 24 weeks the foetus is formed enough to look like a small child…isn’t that wrong. But it is the person’s choice, at the end of the day that individual has to carry that child for 9 months, go through an agonising labour…isn’t that considered to be a choice. Okay if you have been irresponsible and just blatantly not used any kind of contraception…then that’s just plain idiotic. However, most women take so many precautions to avoid pregnancy however, some how it does happen to them…then what…? I know that sex has it’s consequences and that no sex would avoid it altogether…but who’s doing that…sex is a natural thing that happens…but a bad home for a baby, how is that good. I know that religiously it’s bad…but we’re not living in eighteen hundreds anymore…medical advances have been made…whether it’s wrong or right it should be that person’s choice not a debate. Free will…? We need to put it to rest and let people make their own choice…it’s all about the situation in my opinion.
