Abortion: A Comparative
Analysis of Pro-Life and
Pro-Choice Perspectives
Hailey Baker

, Introduction
Abortion has been debated for decades, and both the pro‑life and pro‑choice movements have their own
values, beliefs, and evidence. The pro‑life side centers its arguments on fetal rights and limiting abortion,
while the pro‑choice side focuses on personal decision‑making, health, and equality. This paper compares
both perspectives and uses research to show why the pro‑life group should reconsider its position, especially
given the health, economic, and social consequences of restricting abortion.
