"Research Paper Final Draft."

During the last couple of days I have been researching “how abortion emotionally impacts women?” I searched different web pages for facts that would help me look for stats, the effect, and the background of abortion. I learned that abortion affects people in many different ways whether it was physical, psychological, or even relationship. Women who have an abortion are recommended to go receive help from a therapist. The physical effects can be terminal which can cause them heavy bleeding. When it comes to sex there partner is not interested in having sex. 75% percent of all relationships with an abortion added do not last they break up or get an abortion. For women the psychological effect may be thoughts of suicide or them knowing that they have just killed an innocent life that had just been born. For guys them knowing that they had just lost the chance of being a father or giving the child a father child bond. Women who have an abortion and it affect them they are diagnosed with post abortion syndrome.

The background for abortion is a big history. Abortion has been going on for centuries in many countries including the U.S. A Black woman is three times more likely to have an abortion than a white woman. As for Mexican’s/ Hispanics it is two time more likely for them to have an abortion then a White women. It is also all about money the more money there is the more abortion there will be. The less amount of money; the less abortions there will be. People who are religious always say, “I do not believe in abortion” so they think that they will never have one. That is not true because the religion that has the lowest rate of abortions are Jewish people with 1.3% while Catholic’s have 31.3% of abortions. 52% of women under the age of fifteen account for 1.2% of abortions. There is a lot of background behind abortion that I had no idea about.

There are so many abortions that occur worldwide. Per year there are approximately 42 million abortions. Per day are approximately 115,000 abortions that occur. 83 percent of all abortions are in developing countries and 17 percent occur in developed countries. 48 percent of all abortions facilities provide services after the twelfth week of pregnancy. Most reasons why women have abortions are because they are not ready to have a child or because they are rape victims and don’t want the child of the rapist. 6 percent of all abortions occur because health problems regarding either mother or child and 93 percent of all abortions occur for social reasons. An estimate 43 percent of all women will have at least one abortion by the time they are 45 years old. 47 percent of all abortions are performed on women who have at least one previous abortion.

Women have the choice of having different types of abortion. It all depends on the week or month that they are on. They can have a suction abortion which is when they vacuumed out the child from there vaginal area. They can receive a Curettage which is when they scrape the child out which can cause them to bleed quite a bit. Another example is salt poisoning, they can put it in there drink and when they drink it the baby will die and will be taken out or digested out. Prostaglandin is another example that is used for having an abortion.

Drama Epic & Myth "Odyssey" Assessment Project Final Draft







"Literature Commentary Final Draft."

When people go home they are stuck in some kind of traffic whether it was a flight delay or freeway traffic. On the other hand Odysseus is a mortal man living at the same time as the Greek Gods. Odysseus had to go through a ten year delay in order to go home to get to his wife Penelope. On Odysseus journey, in the “Odyssey” by Homer, he proves that cunning and sacrifices where great aids on his way back home.

Odysseus proves that he was the most wise and strongest out of all his men that joined him on his journey. For example, when Odysseus tricked the Cyclops in thinking that his real name was “Nobody”. This showed that the trick he pulled on the Cyclops was a great trick of cunning because it saves most of his men. This also shows that not only being smart saved his life but it also helped him get things done and solve problems. In addition Odysseus was able to finish his journey and get back home to his wife although he was disguised as a beggar. This shows that when Odysseus got home his disguise as a beggar was cunning in helping him to find out what was going on and if the people around him were still here for him and not the suitors. This also shows that him dressing as a beggar helped him find who were true and loyal to him compared to those who were just trying to be with his wife.

Odysseus was smart and his cunning paid off big time in winning back his household.
Odysseus proves that sacrifice was a huge help in his journey back home. He knew that those sacrifices would be hard for him. For example, when Odysseus had to sacrifice his men in order to get back home. This shows that he would have done anything to get back to his wife but he didn’t want to lose his men at the same time. His men were eaten from flesh to bone till there was nothing left of them by Cyclops and the Charybdis. In addition, he sacrificed his physical affairs with the Circe to go back home to his loving wife Penelope. This shows that Penelope was the women that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with. This also shows that his love for his wife Penelope was what he wanted and would give up anything to go back to her. All the sacrifices that he went through were helpful even if one of them could have destroyed his relationship with his faithful wife.

Odysseus was able to make it home safely thanks to his cunning and the sacrifices that he made although they were not always exactly what he wanted. Odysseus was a human just like modern people so having to make decisions and mistakes on his journey back home was an everyday thing. The Odyssey was a mythological epic about Odysseus journey home and all the challenges along the way. What he had to do and give up getting home and seeing his wife Penelope once more. To hold her and never allow her go through that again.

Father told me that he had a poison that will out me in coma for 42 hours. I agreed to him and he sent you a letter telling our plan. I guess you did not receive it. When I woke up from my deep sleep I saw Father their and he told me that we had to go. I kept on asking him where you were but he did not tell me. Then I saw you on the floor and Father told me that we had to go and I said no. He said that it was all a mistake and ran away. I began to cry and saw a bottle next to you and I tried to drink it but you had drank it all already. I heard people and did not want them finding out. Si I saw a knife in your bag an thought of no choice but to kill myself to be with you and no one else. I truly love you and hope to see you in the after life. To my Romeo you had made my life better than anyone had ever done. Always and forever you will be mine and I will be yours.

Love,
Juliet
