Dear Mr./Mrs. President,
I am very concerned as I know many people are with the topic of abortion. I understand that this has been an issue for a long time now but as a man I believe that since men don't know what it is like to be pregnant, we should let women, as the people who know what it feels like decide. I do think that there should be a deadline for when you can have an abortion. I think the deadline should be 20 weeks into the pregnancy because after that the baby looks more like a human and it is more likely to be able to survive outside the mother's womb. I believe abortion should continue to be legal because a woman has a right to life without the responsibility of a child if she does not want that responsibility. A recent study by UC San Francisco's School of Medicine shows that ninety-five percent of women who have had abortions do not regret it. This shows how these decisions are being responsibly made. I hope this shows you that people should be able to keep doing this. Thank you for reading my letter , I appreciate it. -Carter Janney
