I was just 18. And I went thru the painful time when my ex boyfriend told me to abort my baby. But I didn't do it. My conscience didn't let me do it. If you were in my boyfriend's or my position, what would you have done?

Yes. I mean, now, I realized it's better to just have a baby. Than to have a husband. hehe

I am glad you did not do it, but there is alot of people in situations who need to. I hate people who say abortion is bad and look down on you but there is always other circumstances which makes these decisions unmisable. I think your ex-boyfriend needs his head sorted out he should have been there for you and the child.

Though I'm against abortion. I can also understand people having abortion. Coz there are times that abortion is necessary. Like one time, my neighbor did abortion but it was for the mother's sake. after, they just adopted. About my ex-boyfriend, that's the person everyone should look down on to.

You were quite young when you had your baby. I am glad you were mature enough to keep the child. Your ex boyfriend is a coward. He is not a real man. If I am a man and I got a girl pregnant, I am sure I would not ask her to abort our child. The baby did not do anything wrong. And though a man will feel guilt when he asks a girl to resort to abortion, the guilt is mainly on the girl because she is the one carrying the child within her. She will carry that guilt for the rest of her life. No real man who really loves and respects his girlfriend will put her though that. Shame on your ex. He does not deserve to be a father. I am really proud of you. And just by looking at your picture with your cute daughter, I know you are very happy together. She is lucky to have you as her mom. :)

I know he's stupid. That's why at that very moment, I knew he wasn't deserved to be loved. So, I left him. And hid from him until now. He will never see his child for his sake. But if my daughter wants to meet his real father, I won't stop her.

I am so PROUD of you for keeping your child. If I were you, I would have done the same thing. I choose life :) If I were your boyfriend-- I would ask you to kEEP the baby & if you didn't want to- I would ask you to have it and I would take care of it. Or, if neither of you coudl do it... ADOPTION! I'm just so proud of you for keeping your child. Good for you.

Thank You. And I'm not regretting my decision coz after that, I had so much blessing. I guess my teenage pregnancy was a blessing in disguise.

you have your own life and why would you let a boyfriend who cannot get his act together decide for you? its good you followed your self's decision.

I would never take a life just because my boyfriend/husband told me to do it. I was 18 when I got pregnant with my first child as well.

I wouldn't need to be told, I'd have one anyway. I don't want to be pregnant, I don't want kids. End of story.

Ok. That's your life. SO noone else has the right to tell you what you have to do. Do what you think is best.
