why don’t we practice abstinence instead of abortion? do fourteen year olds really need to be having sex? probably not…. would someone love to raise love and keep her baby if she is incapable of it YES. how about adoption instead of abortion? We should all be allowed to grow up to be who we can be as opposed to having our lives cut off before we are even given names or being held for the first time.
Brooke if she wants an abortion why should she have to go through the pain of having the child and having to give it up for one stupid mistake, aslong as the baby can’t feel pain it is not a living thing it is nothing more than a tumour.
Open adoption = best option
Or, how about we just stop stigmatizing birth control so kids aren’t afraid to ask for it?
I am 19 years old, and had an abortion. First off it was with my boyfriend of three years, who in the end still got scared and took off. Despite the fact he was 25. My first thought was raise it on my own. However I am struggling enough to feed my own mouth let alone a new one. Which led me to my next decision, adoption. I had this decision for quite some time. Then it dawned on me, what if this child doesn’t get the life I want it to, what about the millions and millions of other babies in the world that need a home. What about the fact that our world population jumped from 6 billion to 7 billion in a decade. There are more of us then rabbits. I also took into consideration my whole life I have done nothing but selfless acts to make others happy why for a change could I not be selfish. Why would I have to give up my body, that I already struggle with, ruin my reputation as a person, puke every day, more than once, not be able to eat properly, sensitive to smells and all the other ‘joys’ of pregnancy if in the end I didn’t get the reward. I am sorry. This is the 21st century. Being pregnant was terrible for me, I was miserable. All I did was cry. Not to mention I hate the world we live in now, from our government to humanity as a whole. Why bring a child into a world I can barely stand myself?
Lilly, you helped me. I was 19 had an abortion and still to this day harbor guilt, but you’re right…and one day I will have kids and will be able to give them the life they deserve.
To the 14 yr old, life is hard enough, and I was in college, could legally work, and had my own drivers license and car….I don’t condone abortion over adoption, but the babies having babies need to realize that in this world there is so much more to it than that hormonal boy who says he loves you. Education, career, falling in real love, and cherishing the blessings not stressing over the hardships.
How about people learn how to keep their legs closed….simple solution. Also, if you have an abortion, you SHOULD feel guilty for the rest of your lives..cause you just killed an innocent unborn. Which is MORE than a tumor, you know they have a heart beat at four weeks right? Theories also suggest they do feel pain. I can’t imagine a more selfish act, it’s completely unjustifiable.
Make the mature decision to have sex=making the mature decision to deal with the ‘consequences’ and not kill another human life because you fucked up with yours…
