If you found out that your unborn child had a life threatening condition, would you choose to termiate the pregnancy or have the child? Same thing different scenario...what if carrying the child was life threatening to mother, What would you do? Finally, if the pregnancy was a result of a rape or incest, what would you do?

Hai TIff What I think is it's better to marry the person and then to carry the pregnancy. If its not possible it is better to terminate the pregnancy.

I would choose to terminate it if it had a life threatening disease before he or she is bron because I would not want my child to suffer in life. Now if the pregnancy is the result of rape or incest, I would give the child up for adoption because it is not their fault that their father was a pedifile.

My husband and I talk about this topic a lot lately because we are thinking about having our second child. We lost our first born last year at age 3 with brain disorder so it an important topic for us. For us, we will terminate the pregnancy if unborn child is going to have a life threatening condition. We had wonderful time with our daughter but it was also hard too. I dont think we can handle loosing another one specially when we alreayd know the problems. If th pregnancy is result of rape or incest, same thing for me. I will choose to terminate the pregnancy. I love children but I dont want to cry anymore so termination will be the best result for me.

Those are exactly the only reasons I believe that abortion is truely acceptible. I have health problems and getting pregnant right now wouldn't be good for me or my child, and if I was raped I couldn't raise my child and when they ask where's my father and for them to find out that is how they can into this world. And a rapist if you don't report it, could even go after you for visitation rights. I have heard of this happening to people.
