Abortion has always been a foriegn issue to Somalis and Moslems in general. but since alot of Somalis live in the West today, questions has be raised about the legality and ethics of abortions and whether our women should have the right to do it.
in my oppinion, abortion shouldn't be outlawed totally, but should be allowed for certian situation and circumstances. for example, if a woman, gets raped, I think its better for her to remove that fetus if she want to.
If the pregnancy is also danger to the health of the mother -I think it can be aborted. but if girls have sex, and don't wear condoms, or use birth control pills --and then tries to abort the baby --then its wrong and its her fault. there is also a time line, its easy to abort a fetus that is just less then 3 months -then a fetus that is well developed and almost over 6 months. its like killing a life person. so, women should be careful considering this, cuz they may be committing genocide while they don't know.
