Reasonable or Inconsiderate? We know that there is a vast majority of people in the United States that are for and against abortion, but do you think it is fair to force another thing on an already grieving parent? In Texas, it will be required for aborted fetuses to be buried or cremated. The cost of abortion already ranges from $300 to $950. Estimates show that burial and cremation costs can average out to $2,000, but The Texas Medical Association mentions that cremation costs alone can range from $1,500 to $4,000. The governor of Texas says that this will give a voice to the unborn, but in the same breath, what about the parents, some who have been victims of sexually violent crimes, do they not have a voice? Others see it as an attempt to put aborting moms to shame for their choices. Do you think that this ruling is absurd, or that it will make women think twice about their choices when it comes to sex? Should burial and cremation be required for aborted fetuses even if the parent can not afford it? This ruling would affect black women the most as they have the most trouble paying for medical procedures.
