There can be serious complications from abortion including sterility and even death. Most abortions are performed on women who's life and health are not endangered by their pregnancy. Babies at only 6 months of development, sometimes even less, have survived and developed into healthy, happy individuals. Few Partial Birth Abortions are performed to 'save the mother's life' and in fact, may endanger a woman's life or reproductive health. Partial Birth Abortions have been performed several times the rate admitted to by our government.
Most women eventually regret having an abortion.
Of those who regret having an abortion, a significant number suffer serious long-term emotional and mental illnesses. There are more people waiting to adopt healthy babies than there are babies to go around. Abortion always stops a beating heart. You shall not kill. The politicizing of infanticide in abortion to gain votes is a prominent part of most political campaigns.
