If you really want an abortion, get one. Think about it hard first, though. Don't do anything you'll regret. It won't affect your physical health, I promise.

There are enough children out there who need a home, really, and if your child isn't a perfectly healthy white newborn it doesn't stand much of a chance. I know if I ever have children i'm adopting.

I'm not, of course, encouraging you to get an abortion. Just do what you think would be best for you.

I wanted to offer an opposing view from 'if you have the baby millions of people won't look down on you' and 'you should learn to keep your legs closed'. It's all very well and good to warn someone off making the same mistakes that you did, but you can do it in a nicer way, surely?

Besides, everyone's making adoption out to be a perfect solution, when many kids grow up in foster care because nobody wanted to adopt them and then they got too old. Okay, off the subject.

And not to be pedantic, but an abortion *is* facing the consequences. It's scary and painful and a very hard decision to make for most women.

Shutting up now. :)

That is right , you must do what is the right thing to do for you, the baby-to be and all considered. I do not know how far along you are but if you are early enough in your pregnancy you can abort continue on with the pregnancy and raise the child or adopt, it is your choice. You should talk to your mom and see what she thinks but the choice is yours.
Good luck!

Well rodge is totally lying to u u can have physical side effects from abortion hello u have to sign a waiver saying your family cant sue if u die! Geez not to metion u may never b able to have kids again you can get infections and have side effects from the drugs they give you. You bleed for like 4-6 weeks afterwards theres a lot he obviously doesnt know

and whats this caca about white babies? What are you black and depressed cuz u were a slave? No you need to get over yourself there are plenty of babies who were adopted and arent white some even by white parents your a doing it dumb*ss and need to find somewhere else to push your sh*t! Or go sit in front of the tv and watch adoption stories on .T.L.C

Alex, if you are pregnant (and you might not be, so this whole conversation might be irrelevant!), and you decide to have an abortion, it does not make you a bad person. Contrary to what many people think, an abortion is one way of dealing with the "consequences" of getting pregnant - it isn't just a procedure; it's a dramatic and life-changing one. In fact, some think that a fifteen-year-old girl raising a baby is the selfish way of going about things. For everyone slamming her for wanting an abortion, please try to keep your thoughts to yourselves. Not everyone is pro-life, and she came to the forum for help. You're offering her nothing but cruel judgement. Having an abortion is a deeply personal choice that requires a lot of soul-searching and consideration. Adoption is another option, if you are so inclined. I don't believe abortion is a selfish choice, but it is a serious one that shouldn't be made lightly. If you are pregnant and decide to get one, please make sure it is at an accredited clinic and that you talk to it with at least your boyfriend, if not your parents. This isn't something you should keep to yourself. And absolutely remember that as the woman, you and you only decide whether or not to have one. Let us know how things work out.

P.S. If you get an abortion at a facility like planned parenthood, your chances of serious side effects are slim to none. Death accounts for only 0.1% of abortion cases, and that statistic is derived from poor reactions to anesthesia. Complications and perforations of the uterus are rare and should not be meant to deflect a woman from having an abortion if she chooses to. A woman actually has a higher risk of dying in childbirth than she does from having an abortion.

Where are you getting all this? Yes, maybe you have to sign something, but believe me that is true of all invasive medical procedures. I had to sign a waiver when I had my tonsils out, for heaven's sake.

Http://statistics.Adoption.Com/info rmation/foster-care-statistics.Html allow me to draw your attention to the number contained in the first paragraph.

No its not a way of dealing with the consequences


she chose to have sex without birth control, so having an abortion isn't the right choice! Many many girls have sex without birth control and then have abortions like 9 and 10 times, it's not fair for the innocent life inside of her to be 'gotten rid of' because she wasn't responsible enough to put on a condom!

Don't tell us to keep our opinions to ourselves, if you haven't noticed this is a public forum and we'll post what we want.


Thank you :)

I wasn't encouraging her to get an abortion and although it's a personal choice, I don't exactly agree with women who have multiple abortions, either.

I didn't ask everyone to resist posting their thoughts, but I did ask that they please show courtesy to others and not pass judgement.

You might think of going to the abortion forum, not the debate abortiun forum if you are thinking of an abortion as this forum isn't really the right forum to talk about abortion and ignore the one's that are anti-abortion as I said before it is your choice and having an abortion will not make you sterile and all of that. You do need tofind out 1st if you are pregnant.
Good luck!

is that addressing me? I never said to keep your opinions to yourselves.

Personally, I firmly believe that a baby should never, ever be seen as consequence to an action. As you said, it's a potential human, and that shouldn't be a punishment. There are enough unwanted children in the world- why make more?

That's about as syrupy as I get, i'm afraid. There's also a lot about women's rights that I won't bother to go into, because I don't think i'd get anywhere.

Im getting it from being forced to go to an abortion clinic! Ive seen it all thanks. And no I didnt have one because I realized my mom cant make me so I left. Ps your website doesnt work.

I dont have a bunch of numbers but if you go around believing it wont happen to you because its so unlikely your an fool cuz its gotta happen to someone for there to be numbers and what says u arent the one?

And to rasuyoung if she wanted support to back her abortion she should have gone to the abortion forum not the pregnancy forum. None of the pregnant women here would ever abort their child unless it was medically necessary well all .W.A.N.T to b pregnant here!

Well she already posted that she she'd feel really guilty if she had an abortion, and that she was thinking about keeping it or giving it up for adoption.


I'm pretty sure we're past this.

No it wasn't addressed to you rodge

and when I say consequences i'm not talking about the actual child. I think if someone decides to open their legs and have sex without protection its their responsibility to carry it to term and if they decide they don't want it then give it up.

A lot of people will agree

you're right there are a lot of unwanted children, but there are also a lot of families that can't have babies.

Ppl who say well theres only a small chance of it even happening and it wont be me are naive because its got to happen to someone for there to b a statistic right? So y would you be special? Get it?

This is not saying im not going to get in the car because of car accidents because thats silly you have to get in the car to go places but people who think my abortion wont go wrong why risk it? I would rather die giving life than die taking it

great! They can adopt the unwanted children. Then everybody will be happy.

I wish people really did, instead of going to all that trouble and expense to have their "own" baby. What's so important about genetic material anyway? That possibly sounded really bad, but whatever.

Macy, let's just agree to disagree. Okay?
