A girl was raped and consequently she gave birth a baby. But she could not accept her child. The incident always haunt her. The man was unknown to her. Sometimes she felt motherly affection for the baby. But again she got repulsive. She thought the baby was carrying the blood of that monster man. If such occurrence happens is there any way to make the girl normal and accept the innocent baby?

She needs time since she felt motherly affection to the child, as time goes by and see her child growing up to become a better person then that will be time she will realize things...

I think that the girl should attend therapy to help her love her baby. Her little baby is an innocent one that deserves to be loved and well cared for. The girl should think of the baby and then the child as her future. The evil man that raped her is in the past. Sometimes a baby or child gets adopted. Despite the background of the baby or the child the adoptive parents love that little one and care very well for him or her. That child although not blood related becomes a member of that family. My mom's friend in the 1960s adopted a baby girl and a couple of years later a baby boy. The raped girl is the baby's mother and the father is unknown. Therefore the baby only has one parent. It is very important that the girl bonds with and begins to love with her baby.

Hi maxi,I'm so sorry for replying to your response lately. Yes the poor girl should get therapy. She have to get realize that incident was an accident of her life. The baby is innocent. She must get mother's care. The baby is the part of her blood. In our culture people do not want to adopt a child who have no father . There is only option. That is the baby can be nourished in a orphanage.

If she can accept the fact that the baby is innocent, this might definitely help her. None of us can actually chose our parents. This isn't the baby's fault. I imagine that, after being raped, anyone would need some kind of help, some therapy. I think that if she can get this help, it might get easier for her to accept the baby. I'm not saying that she would forget the incident. I doubt that anyone would be able to. But perhaps she might be able to come to terms with it.

Yes dodo, It is very difficult for the girl to forget this tragic incident. Actually she needs help to come to normal life. I hope one day she will accept her baby and will feel that was an accident of her life.

It is not the baby that haunts her it is the act that created the baby. IS it fair to the baby? No it is not. Was it fair to the girl? No it's not. She is faced with seeing the result of most likely the worst moments of her life everyday and that is hard to do. Resentment will come to those who have not healed from the rape it's self. Do not condemn the poor girl. This may be a situation where it is better for her to give the baby up for adoption so it may nave a better life and she is not faced with her pain so forcefully. It is not that she is abnormal in fact it is very few raped woman who do not feel resentment of a rape child. So many abort right away or take a morning after pill to not have the situation at all. Others give the baby up for adoption and a few even kill the babies. So raise them suffering through it causing unending emotional pain to all involved. There are very few who can see past the rapist and have no strings pulling their emotions apart.

Hi sympathetic Lady,yes the poor girl is the victim of situation. She should be treated with compassionate outlook. In our society it is very hard to give the baby for adoption. Because in our culture such baby is treated as illegitimate child . Very few people will be interested to take the baby for adoption. There is only way,that is to give the baby to a orphanage.

I'm curious if this rape was reported. They usually treat you for any STD's and give you a morning after pill if you go to the hospital. I do feel for this girl and wish her all the luck in the world. I can't even imagine carrying this man's child and then raising it. On the other hand, she should realize that it's not just this man's blood running through the child's veins... it's also her own. She really needs to seek professional help for this or else she will never have a normal relationship with her child.

there you go, you just said it, the baby is innocent. if the child can only choose parents then of course she will pick a different parents and different situation. i think she need to under go therapy. so that she can accept the child without thinking what the father did to her. i hope she accepts the baby whole heartedly but i know this is not easy. i just hope she does.
