Abortion is a Woman’s Choice CINDY ROSS BCOM/275 20 OCT 2013 DION WILLIAMS Abortion is a Woman’s Choice “Abortion is an absolutely moral choice for any woman wishing to control her body” (McKinley 2002, p. 45).

Some people might believe abortion is okay, others think it’s not. This isn’t about trying to change anyone’s mind, it’s about informing people on the other side of the argument. Personally, I am for legal abortion, in my opinion, it helps women, lets them have control over their bodies, it even helps the fetus in a way.
