Qué significa el aborto para los adolescentes de la actualidad

This study seeks to describe the perception and opinion of adolescents about abortion in the department of Rivadavia, Mendoza, who attend a Catholic school. The methodology is qualitative with a phenomenological design. It is a descriptive study with an intentional non- probability sample of adolescents between the ages of 13 and 17. The instrument used was semi- structured interviews. The majority of the adolescents considered abortion as a murder, as far as their positions were in favor only in case of rape or in cases where the life of the pregnant woman was at risk. As for teenage pregnancy, they consider that at this stage one is not psychologically or economically prepared to carry out a pregnancy, so one of the factors they considered influential in making the decision to abort was age and the fear of what will happen to their future
