Patriarchal Society and Woman’s Abortion Nowadays Korea has low rate in delivery and many young couples aren’t trying to have kids. There is a word “Children are the future of the country.” This means that when children grow up than they will handle the country and change them. So, erasing the hope is the worst thing ever. Abortion should be illegal for any reason. Baby is a person also that people couldn’t treat them just like a product. They couldn’t just cut them and make them disappear. If the abortion became legal than many woman do it, the youth will be distinct. The society will be old and all the old people should work even though they have pass their retirement. All couples should think about having kids. Of course they would spend a lot of money to raise them. There are many ways they could solve their money problem. I heard there is a law that when the couple has over 3 kids they could get a money from the government. Also when the kids get into the university there is also a scholarship for the 3 child family. People shouldn’t be afraid about having child and worried about their future. Having a baby between the loving couple is a common sense. There shouldn’t be any reasons for abortion. Of course there could be an exception like teenage pregnancy. For this point there should be a specific law for the abortion. When it is legal and when it’s not. The teenage pregnancy is the very sensitive social issue that should be reduced. As you know teenagers are too young to care about baby. They are so immature to raise a child. This is same as that child is raising a child. The other exception is for the victim of sexual harassment. They are definitely sick in their mind and body. If they got pregnant because of the criminal there should be a chance to start over. The kids should be in the world as much as we can have. When the abortion became legalized and many couples are afraid of having child. The earth could be disappear because there won’t be any development of the continent. There is a law that the baby inside the mother’s stomach also has a right. The exact date after like 4 weeks they have their rights as a human. There are some illegal doctor who do the abortion to that growing child. Baby shouldn’t be treat as a product. They shouldn’t be treated like a clay toy. If the parents are afraid of having baby and don’t want to have a baby. I recommend them to have a therapy or a counselling program. They would definitely change their mind. Children are the present for the couple. They could be responsible and they would learn about becoming a parent. Since the couple have the baby that’s the real form of family. Of course just living themselves could be better to some couples but if they have a child they will feel the difference. Most of mothers said “I want to have another baby!” Even they just got a baby and they know how painful it is but they say like that. Abortion can also influence to woman’s body. Think about that iron stuff is going into human’s body and cutting the lively baby. There are some women who did the abortion and after she couldn’t get the baby because of the trauma. Also the body which did the abortion may be different to the ordinary people’s body. There are some side effects of abortion. When the woman’s got the surgery she could experience mentally and physically disorder. There is also the result that’s showing woman is having stress and depression after abortion. Also in their body they could have a hole even they couldn’t have a baby after. The surgery ruins woman’s body. This couldn’t be legalized at all. Abortion is not the simple way for solving the problem. In their body there is an evidence that’s showing this was the body of mother. I hope people will be aware about the abortion in the right way and think seriously about that.
