Abortion Risks By Cara Ruegg The way to empower women is not to give them the choice to harm themselves. The reason many women get abortions is because they do not think they are strong enough or do not think there are other options. We should be putting our money to help those single mothers out there be able to keep their babies or see them go to loving homes. If you put aside the morality of it, you still have big red flags regarding how harmful abortion is to a woman's health mentally and physically, flags most women aren't told of until it is too late. Plus, this "fetus" is a human no matter the stage it is at, and it is not the woman's body, it is her baby's body and she has no right over another's body just because it is inside of her own.

When I was in the convent, deciphering God's will for me, I felt keenly this very cross. I had been there for nearly three years and had wanted so much to keep to my commitment and be His, entirely His as I had said I would, but as vows approached, I was suddenly not so sure anymore about anything. I craved a family of my own, a little child. I noticed my other Sisters didn't have the same yearning as strongly as me.
