There has been an eternal debate going on as to whether pregnant women shall be entitled to abort their upcoming child yet to be born.
Many categorise aborting as criminal, in the extent that it erases a human being‘s life, whereas, on the other hand, many would condone the practice, if exerted with legitimate reasons from the pregnant mother.
I agree with @Henri i would also add that abortion usually happens before that embryo develops a conscience. With that being said, you are “killing” a live element in the same fashion you are terminating a flower’s life or a fruit. Does that make you a murderer ? Just my take.
