Abortion is a controversial issue. Everyone has their own opinion why it should or should not be legal. Adoption provides a child for the adoptive parents, and provides the child with a chance to grow up happily.
Abortion destroys the unwanted fetus.
The advantages of abortion, in the long run, are not as positive nor as far-reaching as the advantages of adoption. I have never had an abortion, but I was a result of an unwanted pregnancy. I was adopted, and the events of my life led me to promote adoption over abortion. My birthmother, whom I never knew, was only fifteen. She, like many other girls who get pregnant accidentally, never expected to be a statistic.
