In the abortion divide documentary, it talks about how Pennsylvania was divided because of a law about abortion. We hear from four women, two who have their babies and the other two who do not. we can hear from both sides and listen to their story and why they made the decision. The first woman that spoke tells us that her other choices would be to keep the child or give up for adoption. She said that the child won’t have a good life because she knows she won’t be able to support them well. She already knows and is trying to prevent more from happening. People would still think that’s not a good reason and expect her to have the child. Every type of women gets abortions, young old different races, those who don’t expect to be there are there. It’s a hard choice buts it’s their decision and it’s their body and no one should try to make the decision for them. Most women are avoiding being single parents because they do not want to struggle, it’s a lot to process and think of. The women doing it are very strong, not just for going through it but because of what other people will do, they will judge them, they might feel guilty for a long time. There is so many reactions and feelings a person can go through, a lady who was going through it found out that she was having twins and stared to think differently. She thought of her son who has autism, and the condition is slowly leading to Asperger’s, the child does not like human interaction. During the procedure now, they get sedated and feel less comfortable but back then at the old hospital it was painful because they were not sedated. The process is when they are injected, and they slow fall asleep and are numb to the pain during the surgery. There are women who change their minds and decide to keep the baby, this decision does not mean they are better than those who didn’t. They might have gotten a reason to keep, and they knew they would do the job. Women who go through with the abortion are very strong because they have to carry the feelings and guilt with them. Making decisions were never easy. Other times women who find out they are pregnant unexpectedly can be happy, they also go through emotions from being shocked to being happy. Whatsoever women decide to do with their body is their choice no one should try to judge.
Hobby Lobby could also be America’s leading source of landmark, they say it conflicts with their Christian fate. Now people wonder if for-profit corporations can be religious too and if they do, they might choose to be Jewish. The founders of hobby lobby are Christians and they have been driven to pay full time employees 90% minimum wage. Their customers are said to be from Etsy and also students.
