Your school made you do a paper on abortion when you were 15?! And you had to include pictures?! That is so completely shocking, how the hell are you supposed to even begin to process something like that at that age? I still have a lot of trouble with it as an adult. If that happened in my school it would have been a massive national scandal.

It was like a "change your mind" kinda paper. Because my aunt was pregnant and the Drs. told her he was gonna have some off the wall spinal problem. They thought about the issue long and hard, and throughout they kept telling her he was gonna have issues. He was born perfectly healthy, and is so smart its unreal.
It was something that "I" chose to do.
It was a good paper, and I got an A. I havent even thought about it till today.

Just my opinion and I know I'm not in the majority here, but I don't mind the pictures. Real photos are that - real. My baby is 17 weeks along and I recently saw a photo of a woman who delivered @ 17 weeks. She dressed her (deceased) baby and the family held her and took photos. People commented that it was "disgusting" and looked like a "gummy bear", but I saw a beautiful baby gone too soon.

I was very pro-choice before pregnancy - and I still am - but I don't advocate hiding the truth from people. Should they choose to go that route, they should see the reality of their actions. Of course, having worked in a police department for many years, I'm quite immune to images of death and other horrible things. My tolerance is a lot higher than most.

Now, of course, this is disturbing to those who just wanted ultrasound pictures. Yes, people need to tag their images properly. That's offside.

Ah when you said you had to do it I took it that you were assigned the subject. In fairness in reading it again that's still how I'd read it. Wasn't having a go at you but the thought that a school would assign such a subject to a minor that I found shocking. It being your choice of subject is completely different.

I'm with you - I find it really interesting seeing these pictures and makes you realise exactly what is going on in your body. It doesnt really seem real to me yet so when I see pictures like this I can understand a bit better that there is a baby inside me and what she looks like just now

It's a totally provocative action by members of the pro-life groups to scare people into their way of thinking, who let's not forget have been know to murder doctors who give abortions. Disgusting behaviour and they don't care how much they are upsetting us pregant women who just want to learn a bit about our babies!

I find their tactics reprehensible!!! It is one thing to share your beliefs via a website (which they are totally entitled to) but to do it in such a menner is sickening. Pregnant women should not be scared to find out information about their pregnancies without coming across this.

Missy86 · Dec 26th, 2009, 17:01 PM

The pics dont bother me but I was always abit werid, I do find it awful that they can try and put thir beliefs on everyone mind.

Is that pic really a 9 week old fetus, I have my doubts

abortion isnt allowed to be discussed on the forums guys. think its b/c its such a sensitive subject and words can be misunderstood and people can easily get upset.

Bingles · Dec 26th, 2009, 17:55 PM
