I would imagine that you want to make sure that you're using facts, and not opinions, in your essay, so I would think that using solid things (like cost, time it takes, etc.) instead of personal choice-matters (like how it may or may not effect a family, depression, etc.) would be a good idea.

So when you're happy (Hurray!), or sad (Aw!),
Or frightened (Eeek!), or mad (Rats!)
An interjection starts a sentence right.

Yes.

Call me traditional, but in an essay I like to use facts and there are SO many myths about abortion to make it sound a hell of a lot worse than it is. Make sure you use reliable sources, and in order to get a good mark you're going to have to bring up points that are pro-abortion and counter argue them.

For example, it isn't very logical to argue that abortion is bad because it's dangerous when childbirth is 12 times more likely to be fatal- a one sided argument is not going to get you a great mark so you're going to have to come up with something better than 'it's dangerous'.

check out planned parenthood for reliable abortion info (although it is pro-choice they have reliable and unbiased facts about abortion safety and such so that you can make sure that what you're writing about is actually true)
