Life of an unwanted child?!

Well, that happened to my husband and I. But we didn't abort our son nor did we give him up for adoption. We decided to keep him. It's not his fault his parents were stupid. We love our son and are so glad to welcome him into our family. He made us complete! I can't imagine life without him now. I'm so glad we didn't give him up. He's beautiful. He's the happiest baby you would ever meet. He's smart. He's funny. I love that kid!

I dont know how to answer this question, but I think its important for people to do what gets them by. I think judging people for making these kind of discisions is a bad move. I have four children and no how hard the responsibility for each has been and lets face it its for the rest of your life. This kind of choice is personal and each to there own.

Most certainly an a adoption, Every child/baby has the right to be in this world like you and I.. I am strongly against abortions though I know a few people that have done it because they weren't ready to be parents. It's really sad if you ask me.. Their are so many women out there that can't have children the least a person can do is go threw with it and give the child up for an a adoption.. They don't have to worry about taking care of the child because someone else that wants that child will be doing it already for them. Just my oppion!

I would get an abortion, but that's just me. I never want kids and I refuse to carry an unwanted fetus to term. I am not an incubator. Call me selfish if you want, but my life is my life and I refuse to give it up for some kid and I'm not going to create another kid for the adoption system.

It would depend entirely on why I wasn't ready to be pregnant. I have 3 children (planned for years before conception lol) and I am expecting now. My partner & I had discussed back in November if we were done having children or if we might want one more. We had decided to put off making a permanent decision until next year & possibly TTC one more time, again next year. Well no sooner did we have that discussion & I realized I was late...hmm... and sure enough there was that double-lined test saying we were expecting. For us, in this situation the timing was just a little off. It's not a huge problem, it just meant re-arranging some little things in our lives & we did want another child. However, if it really was an awful time for us to be expecting; I'd terminate. If we were already spread so thin as to not afford another child, I wouldn't have it. If my job were one that I couldn't continue while pregnant, I probably wouldn't continue the pregnancy. If it were the result of a rape, I know I wouldn't continue the pregnancy. If my health were in danger, again wouldn't continue. Adoption is a great thing for women & families who choose that route. I imagine it's one of the hardest things a woman/family could decide to do. It's not something every woman/family could do though. The wondering, the potential guilt, the loss after so much sacrifice for the pregnancy & birth. Again, for a woman who chooses that route, more power to her. But for most women/families it just isn't an option.
