My view on Abortions

  I read a blog about abortions, and if they should be legal or not. A few interesting points came up in this blog, like why they should be legal and different peoples views on abortions. There are also people who are really Pro-Life and will do anything to get their way. I personally agree with both sides, because they are neither right or wrong. I think women should have the choice of having an abortion as long as the baby is still in the fetus stages.

I don't consider a fetus a baby so I think if the woman wants to have an abortion, they should go for it. Especially for girls in their teenage years. Although it is their fault, they should take the abortion as a serious wake up call and realize their mistakes. So if a woman decides to have a baby, I think it should her decision because it is her body.

People who are Pro-life and want the babies should not have any say in abortions. They are not the ones who have to carry the baby for 9 months and suffer through the hard months of pregnancy. Abortions help teenage girls a lot, because it gives them a second chance. A baby that early in some ones life ruins them. They throw their whole life away because of the baby and an abortion prevents that from happening while teaching the girl a lesson.

I think Abortions should be legal and I know people who have had them. They have learned from their mistakes and have taken more precaution. 

This I believe

This I Believe

             Moving to the U.S. is difficult, but immigrating here illegally is another story. Illegal Immigrants from Mexico and many other countries in the world arrive in the U.S. looking for a fresh, new, and safe life. Who are we to deny them that? Just because they are not Americans, does not mean they should not have a chance to live out the “American Dream”.

             My family and I came to the U.S. as refugees. We needed to escape the war in Kosovo, and America became our safe haven. We wanted to start a new life, and we did. We came here with almost nothing, but my parents worked and gave us a new life. The state of Wisconsin also helped us settle in and helped us financially until my parents had steady jobs.  Although we did not immigrate here illegally, we worked hard to get into this country and were lucky enough to be chosen to come here. Illegal Immigrants should have the right to stay in America if they risk leaving their whole lives behind for having a second chance. Most of the illegal immigrants do not want to hurt anyone, and the only jobs they are “stealing” from us are the ones that most people don’t even want. They just want to be safe and want to have a chance to be free and live out their dreams.

         The U.S. should make a program or plan for Illegal immigrants. They don’t necessarily need to have all the rights as citizens but they should be able to work and live here. As an immigrant, I know how it feels like to be stuck in a country where it is not safe, and getting a chance to start over again was one of the greatest things that happened to our family.

         I believe in letting illegal immigrants stay in America and giving them second chances. Everyone deserves a second chance if they work hard for it, and most of the illegal immigrants in this country had to work very hard for it. They should not have to hide; instead, we should welcome them.
