When it comes to abortion my opinion tends to fall somewhere in the middle. If they want to abort the baby because they simply don't want one, I do find that offensive and wrong. But, lets say a woman was r-a-p-ed and became pregnant. I could see why an abortion would an option. Mostly because one could never know the effect on someone and there is no way of telling how a woman might react when the baby is born if she is forced to carry it full term. I'd hate to see her carry this child only to abandon it or kill it because the whole ordeal was to much to handle.
Another time where I think abortion should be an option is if there are health issues with the baby that might lead to major long term health conditions. If having the child is going to doom it to a life time of hardship I really don't think its fair to the child. I'd hate to see a child that's in and out of surgery, constantly in pain and can hardly enjoy life because the parents couldn't let the kid go.
