It's sure a very fragile issue to talk about but I want people to know that there are good conceptions about this. I know that this might be a burdened from couples, especially the younger one, when they have an unwanted pregnancy and others may even commit suicide for they can't carry with them the burden. But I want each and everyone of you to know that it is a blessing in disguise. Yes, you may experience conflicts and other people may even bash you, but believe me, the baby is worth the life. Because of this, you will learn to be mature and have that sense of responsibility in life. You will take each and everyday of your life smiling at the end of the day because you know that someone will make you happy when he/she comes out. It might not be the right time but abortions will and will always be not the right solution to this problem. If you do so, consider yourself a murderer. The child has nothing to do with what you are facing now. On the other hand, you must be ready to deal with this new chapter of your life and consider yourself a mature person. Later on, you will realize that the baby is a blessing and will also make you a great individual. You will learn to be responsible, caring and loving. So my dear friends, if this does happen to you, just think a million times. After all, it was you and your partner who did it.

I agree with you. When I had my son it made me more mature than i was before. It made me open my eyes to life and showed me that it was time to be responsible and take a step up in life.
So many people cannot have kids. If you are pregnant and are too young you should not have an abortion you should put that child up for adoption so that a family out there who cannot have children can give your child a proper home and a better life than you can provide for them.

You haven't really thought of your response there have you?
For an unwanted child to be offered for adoption, the mother has to go full term. For what ever reason she does want this child yet she has to carry this child full term.
Do we not have any regard for the mothers future mental well being because we think a cluster of cells is the same as a real child?
If this cluster of cells was a lifeform, then it would be able to survive outside of the womb..
It is so easy to say - "You should not have an abortion"
put yourself in the place of the woman who is pregnant - what is her situation?
Is the child the result of a rape?
Is the child severly disabled and has no future?
Is the child a health risk to the mother?
Is the woman fit give birth?
A decision to abort a foetus is never taken lightly and it is never forgotten when the abortion is carried out.
So many reasons for legal abortion.
No reason not to have legal abortion.
I feel I should add that I do believe abortion should ever be used as a contraceptive method.

Not every person has the resources (financially, mentally, physically, emotionally) to care for a disabled child.
And not everyone in the world wants to have a child.

This is encouraging and you have a very warm and positive outlook which I agree with. An unwanted pregnancy seems hard at first but once the baby starts to move the picture changes and the mother realises that she is bearing another human being. After that the picture she carries is of a child not of a cluster of cells. I have heard people regret abortion, some carry the guilt for the rest of their lives, but I have never heard anyone regret deciding to keep their baby.

you are pretty right ma'am. the baby is definitely the mover in every relationship. He/she brings changes to the couple. I just hope that a couple, no matter what age type, they would realize how beautiful to have a baby.

I have three children which I adore. I would not ever choose to have an abortion. I realize that a teenager or older lady that is using birth control will be shocked when she sees a pregnant result. The unborn child is quiet and she hasn't yet got a bump.
Life can vary and get better in the future it can get better. It is possible to get baby stuff on a low budget. Many parents of toddlers sell off or give away baby stuff. A baby is so gorgeous and grows up so sweet. A disabled baby is extra special and wonderful.

I had two unplanned pregnancy but they weren't unwanted but I was mature before it happened and excited because yes I do agree babies are a blessing.

I totally agree. It was not the baby's fault, it was the couple who made the did which resulted in them getting pregnant. They don't have to involve the baby in whatever bad things they want to do just to escape the problem, it will only make the problem bigger. What is better is for them to accept the truth that they'll be parents soon, and in time they will understand that the baby is a blessing to them and not a burden. They will realize that they have become much stronger because they are able to face such a big situation with grace and are able to provide for the baby. Seeing a smiling and loving baby will surely bring joy to them no matter what happened to them in the past. Yes, the pregnancy and the situation was unwanted, but the baby is not, such a precious little one to say he's unwanted. :-)

It is a fragile issue. For young people it is even harder because they sometimes so not get the support of their parents. It is a blessing and also it is helps some of us to become more responsible and to be aware of our mistakes. Abortions can be fatal for some people and of course a danger to our health. I try my best to be very careful and take all precautions necessary so that I do not have to deal with it. When I am prepare to have a baby I will just do it, but for now I do not feel ready.
