2 .**Q:** **What is the reason women have abortion? A:** This all depends on the woman, family, and what is going on in their life at the time. Some women have an abortion because they are struggling financially and can not afford the baby. Sometimes, the baby will have a disability or won’t live at all, so the woman chooses to not make the child struggle through there life and just get an abortion. Others simply just don’t want the baby, and use abortion in order to just end the unwanted pregnancy.

3. **Q:** **How many women die each year from pregnancies when they are unable to seek legal abortion? A:** About five hundred thousand women die from pregnancies each year.

4. **Q:** **Is the fetus really a person while aborted? A:** This is a very debatable topic, but I personally think the fetus is not a person. Pregnancy starts after the fertilized egg implants in the wall of the uterus, not when the egg is fertilized. This means that the baby is not yet developed, therefore not a person.

5. **Q:** **Is a birth control pill abortion? A:** No, birth control is a safe and effective way to prevent the pregnancy, not to end it. You can not end a pregnancy that never started.  Back to 8th Grade AT LA 1-2
