I totally agree! Why not just be careful! I have to admit tho...2 years ago when hubby and I found out we were expecting it was SUCH a shock, being on 21 I didnt feel ready and for a MOMENT, a tiny 2 second moment I though abortion was the way to go...then the moment I said it to my hubby I followed it by "omg NO we are not doing that!!" unfortunatly it ended in a mc but to this day I still feel bad about even having the THOUGHT, that 2 second thought of doing that!

yikes. I agree with you and am completely against abortion unless the pregnancy is a health risk. i come from a family who could not have children, I am adopted, and I know that even when someone jokes about abortion it hurts me....this is completely ridiculous. I know what my parents have gone through with not be able to conceive and the thought that they can just make a huge decision with out flinching makes me sick. I am sorry you even had to hear her say something like that.

thanks for sharing!

I can understand why you'd feel like that, you're so excited about your LO you couldn't possibly change that, I do however know that there are people out there who aren't ready and it is them who have to make that decision, which must be a hard one.

very true. however, there are a ton of families out there who cannot have children who would love that little one like it is their own. If it weren't for my birth mums courage in giving me up, i would never have the life i have today.

I am not sure how it is where you are from, but here we are having a huge shortage of adoptive parents, and alot of children being put in foster care because the right steps for care of the child were not taken in the beginning.

Your opinion though....

the thing is though is that she hasn't even got a positive yet and she is already making the decision!! sounded like a quick one aswel..and yep she didnt even seem to flinch..i asked her if she was with the guy..and she said they are together but their horrible to each other..i dont get some people!!

She's very young. Though I myself don't feel abortion is the best option, I do think that if I got pregnant when 15, I too would have had an abortion. My views have changed now, because I find abortion in many cases unnecessary. But I don't think she's a bad person for thinking like that.

The argument that people are desperate to adopt is very true. But to expect a 15 year old girl to carry to full term to then go through birth to then give it away is very soul destroying.

I have a couple of friends who have had abortions. It's very very sad but we must try not to judge them. The decisions weren't taken lightly. x

I agree with everything you just said!!

yeah, i dont like when people talk about aborting it , if they dont want it least they can do is give it up for adoption to people who cant have babies and really want one... i think it is sad... i myself would never bring my self to do something like that..

My view on abortion has always been only if its a health risk or in some circumstances that would be best for all involved although it shouldnt be taken lightly

The thing is, what is better that this 15 year old has an abortion or for her to have the baby and not know how to care for it or bring it up, she is very young and may resent the child for a missed teenage life, I think in this case it may be better to abort, there are so many unwanted children these days with parents who just dont seem to care and the children just do what they like and that then stems into them getting into crime when they are older as they have not been bought up to respect anything or anyone and have no disipline or respect for authority, I do acknoledge this isnt always the case and im sure there are young mums and dads out there who do a fantastic job

This girl seems very immature and i just hope taht her parents have spoke to her about contraception etc and the consequences

This is just my opinion though, other peoples may differ
