If Roe V Wade gets overturned, what should be done to stop a woman from having an abortion?

They can't.  A desperate person will resort to desperate- and dangerous methods.  How many women died from botched abortions done by amateurs, or even by themselves?  Is it worth it to have a law that protects a clump of cells, yet endangers a fully formed, living and realized person?  If Roe v. Wade is overturned, women will have no other choice than to go back to the coat hangers, and knitting needles, and whatever else was used in those unsafe, risky techniques.  History has shown that making abortion illegal will NOT stop women from having them, will NOT control the number of unwanted pregnancies, and will NOT make this country a better place.

To perform an abortion with it if she ever got pregnant there?

the only risk during abortion that goes up for a woman is if she has a late term abortion. the sooner you have it the better for your health.\n\nBTW. you are going to have many people preaching to you

Absolutely.  That baby is half the father's too.  The mother will ultimately probably have the final say.  Abortion could affect her uterus enough that she is unable to have children in the future due to scar tissue buildup.

Leave Roe v. Wade alone.  If you want to end abortion outlawing it is not going to work. All that will happen is the rise of back-alley abortions which will jeopardize women more than we even want to think about.   \n\nIf you are against abortion, work on preventing the demand for abortions through education and and teaching ethics.  It should remain the choice of the woman, just make it so she wants to choose not killing the baby.\n\nI think we would all be happier if the number of abortions performed each year decreased, but we also have to face the facts.  More children being born will increase the demands on our tax dollars.

I had an abortion when I was 28 and it was the worst decision I've ever made.  I didn't regret it until it was over and then I had severe depression and problems in my future relationships because I couldn't forgive myself.   I'd encourage your friend to talk to her parents.   Believe it or not, there are other options out there.   Tell her to have faith - and good luck.

It depends on the circumstances - If the mother's life is in jeopardy then yes, they may suggest an abortion or if the fetus has some sort of disease (severe retardation) could be another instance

Personally, I believe abortion to be wrong. I will say that to anyone. Most people don't have a problem with getting someone to at least stop and think before attaining an abortion. You always make a better decision when you think about all available options. BTW, I do help feed the hungry.

use protection- ie. condoms. or if you've already have had sex without using protection, go to your nearest pharmacy and ask for emergency contraception, they will give you two pills that you have to take, which will stop you from becoming pregnant.

A woman has the right over her own body, regardless of whether there is a zygote, embryo, or fetus present.  It is not a "baby," regardless of the necessity of that word for emotional appeal.\n\nLook, here's my take on things: if you are so opposed to abortions, then stop trying to make them illegal and make them unnecessary.  Work to provide better free or at least affordable health care.  Work to improve sex education for our youth.  Make birth control easily accessible and cheap.  Establish better support for women who wish to give up a child for adoption.  Provide better assistance to people of low incomes who have children.\n\nTHOSE are the major contributing factors to abortion procedures, and if you and all other anti-choice protestors are so caught up in fixing things, then FIX THOSE THINGS.  \n\nI'm pro-choice, because in our society women need to have that option.  I'd love for elective abortions to be completely unnecessary--and so I am trying to fix the problems that lead to them, rather than trying to punish women already in difficult situations by removing their rights.

Yes, get a lawyer and sue for child support.  Just because you opted not to have an abortion doesn't mean that he isn't responsible for this baby.  Get a lawyer and do what is right for this babies future.

It is not just South Dakota-- Mississippi, Missouri, Ohio, Indiana, Tennessee, West Virginia and Kentucky are all considering similar measures.  There is a lot of talk that this will not stop until Roe vs. Wade is overturned.  \n\nTalk to everyone you know.  Write your state officials, encourage everyone you know to do the same.  There are a number of blogs out there; most created by women, but also some by men; that express a similar opinion to yours.\nKeep talking to people...it is only going to get worse if nothing is done.

there are a few scenarios for this.  Abortion can be another one.  search using yahoo, court cases life or death, that should give you several cases to look at.

Here again It's my body and my choice. If my religion decrees that I don't have an abortion and I am a religious person then whom is anybody to tell me that I should have an abortion? As for the men they should have a voice in the subject matter when they can carry a baby for nine months. Then go into labor for it. \nYou know the worst that can happen to a man if the woman decides to have a baby and keep it is they have to support it for the next 18 years.\nWith the woman she has to make a moral decision rather or not to have the baby. IF she decides to have it and keep it. Then she has to raise it and support it too. Just cause daddy gives some money doesn't mean it's covering all the expense. \nSo until you can sac rife as much as a woman does then forgot having a voice.

If this is your first and you are early in the pregnancy, you can just take a pill and have something like a miscarriage.  It will not affect you being able to get pregnant later.  But I wouldn't suggest doing it a lot because too many abortions will hinder you from geting pregnant later.  The sugery is the same but they usually do that with people that are further along.  It is very very uncomfortable and you should schedule a day to get it done and then a day after to rest and take antiboitics.

Abortion stops a beating heart!

First of all, there is other help out there.  I really pray that this does not cut you off from your mom, but if she seriously kicks you out, there are lots of women support groups and housing.  Call bigger churches and see if they have any ideas.  \n\nNext, even if you do leave home, don't stop communicating with your mom.  I've heard story after story about parents coming around to really loving their grandkids after the baby is born.  \n\nYou really need to do some serious thought about whether you are going to abort your baby because someone else tells you to- even if it is your mom.  This life that you have inside you does not belong to you or your mom.  There are lifelong reprocusions from abortion that you are going to deal with- not your mom.  Yes, there is forgiveness in Christ if you are trusting God with your life, but that doesn't mean that there still won't be consequences.  \n\nThere are dozens of people just waiting to adopt a baby.  You won't find any shortage of help if you want to let someone else have your baby.  \n\nMaybe take your mom to an ultrasound.  My mom really came around to loving my first baby when she came along with me and heard the heartbeat.  \n\nI have already been praying for you.  You can do this!!  There are people out there who are loving, non-judgemental  and want to help you.  Find them so that you are not alone in this.  You can call Focus on the Family at 1-800-A-FAMILY to talk with someone in thier counseling department.
