I agree with Gov. Palin that there should be regulations on abortions. There are more women using it as a form of birth control than need be. I think as women that we should practice safely and protect ourselves. I agree that we should be strong and stand up for our beliefs however not being responsible adults is not a cop out excuse either! If men must pay for their misbehavings or irresponsibleness then we as women should too.
After 25 days, which is less than one month the heart starts beating of a baby in the womb. Most women don't even realise that they are pregnant until their second month when the organs are developing.
So to answer the questions posted, abortions should be allowed but only in extreme situations and with medical and mental screenings. And yes circumstances should affect the right to perform the abortion.
26% of women who get abortions have already had one or more abortions! That is too many! And 33% of women are between the ages 20-24. (

We must educated our women! They must know how to use birth control properly, and how it works in their body, and what can affect it! We must screen then ones that feel they need an abortion! Lets be proactive, and stop being so reactive on this matter!
Women please stand up for yourself and protect yourself and take care of yourself. It is not a poor-pittiful-me world anymore! It is a world where we can do it if we work for our goals...and as Gretchen Wilson says, "With a baby on my hip!"
