Specially not men or institution such as the church.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;While watching \u201cThe Abortion Divide\u201d I couldn\u2019t help but feel frustrated, upset and annoyed about the whole situation how&nbsp;&nbsp;the protesters stay outside the clinic shaming and trying to persuade women not to get in abortion.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s very upsetting that doctors, nurses and the rest of the clinic staff don\u2019t feel safe and people outside are treating them and at times get violence. Nobody should feel unsafe while doing their job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In one scene on the documentary theirs this lady who says \u201cthat woman simply can\u2019t make moral decisions on their own, the state has to intervene and tell them what to do\u201d I think she goes against everything women have fought for century\u2019s and still are fighting now.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Women choose to get abortion for many reasons it could be their age, finical stability, health, but at the end of the day it\u2019s their body their choice. They shouldn\u2019t feel they need to explain to others why they are getting an abortion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;It\u2019s funny to me how most of the protesters outside the clinic are men who have no clue or know anything about the women\u2019s body or about giving birth. If it was the other way around and men were the one getting pregnant nobody would be against abortion clinics.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The shelter that\u2019s provided to women who are&nbsp;&nbsp;pregnant and allows them to stay 6 months after they delivered, isn\u2019t the solution to the problem if anything they are just prolonging it. New mother\u2019s need more than just a shelter&nbsp;&nbsp;to live in they need support system, financial stability.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The snapshot that Keona Malcom posted reminded me of the protester on the documentary all their talk about god and how you are taking away a live. They should learn to accept and&nbsp;&nbsp;respect women\u2019s choices.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I think the women who got the abortion done were very brave and smart they were aware they couldn\u2019t provide everything a child needs. They should not feel ashamed for having goals and dreams they want to achieve.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The only person who should be making a choice regarding having in abortion or not are women, it\u2019s their body no one else should be making their decisions for them.
