What would you do if you were pregnant and 16? Imagine that you did not have a job, your boyfriend had left you and refused to help you and your parents wanted you to have an abortion or else you could not live with them. What would you do? Would you keep your baby and be a great parent or would you have an abortion and live your life like nothing ever happened? Tell me your thoughts and opinions!

What a horrible choice! You omitted one choice, though - adoption. If you were to go that route, perhaps your parents would let you stay, or your town or county would help you find housing and a job. I can't believe anyone could go on as if nothing had happened after having an abortion. It would have to plague their thoughts at least now and then! Millions of families all over the world want children and can't have them. They pay a fortune to try to find a child to adopt. In many cases, the pregnant girl goes to live with the family until she gives birth, and it's quite a happy event. Closing off any avenue is just not the way to go.
