In Spain the Abortion Law has just changed.
The last Law that was released in 1985 allows the abortion in just three cases:
-In case of rape in the first 12 weeks
-In case of danger for the mother, without limit of weeks.
-In case that the fetus has a serious sickness into the first 22 weeks of pregnancy.
This was a little different than here in US, but since 2010 the new law is much worse:
-Free abortion for girls older than 16 until 14 weeks of pregnancy
-Abortion until 22 weeks if there is a lethal sickness for the baby
- Like the last law, you can abort if there is any huge risk for the mother
-With 16 years you can abort with the consent of your parents, but if you are scared about what they can say, you can abort without saying anything
-The Law allows the professionals make conscientious objection.
This is our sad law in Spain, and we have to continue fighting against it after this internship.
