Too All the Pro Life People Here
Posted: 06-18-06 03:05am

To all the pro life people that decide to picket outside abortion clinics- I don't know if you have some kind of mental disability, but people other than those having abortions drive past you. When i'm driving home I don't want to see a picture of an aborted fetus being waved around. Some people are sensive about these things. What if someone had an ectopic pregnancy and had to abort the fetus to save her life but was devistated by it drove by and saw that? How do you think that would make her feel? And how do you expect a mother to explain the pictures to her 5 year old daughter? She can't understand things like that. What can you tell her? It's a dead baby? She'll have nightmares until shes 10. And if you believe that those fetus' were living then why are you waving them around on signs for everyone to see!? If your mother died from a gun accident would you wave a picture of her dead with her brains blown out and her face mangled for everyone to see just to say that guns are dangerous? I don't think so! So, if you don't care about the people around you and you want to make your point that badly than at least think about those poor babies who's decapitated naked bodies you're shamlessly showing to everyone who walks past you.I believe in the right to speak your mind but do it in a tasteful manor. People other than those having abortions have to see you too.

I am prolife but I have never picket outside abortion clinics and I am not interested to do that but shall I see it I would give it thumbs up.

Any woman who have had ectopic pregnancies shall not feel bad because that doesn't apply to them. Ectopic pregnancies is no what pro-lifers picke about, it is for the healthy pregnancies that are terminated. If I have a child that see the pictures well I would explain them what it is. Children see all kinds of things and we have always have to explain them. I don't think a child will have nightmares from that.

That's exactly my point lolbahlolbah147. They don't but they should. If they have children they probably wouldn't expose them to those things.

Nightangel73- just because pro lifers don't think it applies to them doesn't mean that those women don't. If they feel bad, maybe they're prolife themself, and they see a picture of what their baby might have looked like it's going to upset them, regardless of why they had the abortion.
And maybe the kids you know won't have nightmares, but the kids I know have had nightmares...Along with some adults. And maybe your kids are smart because the 5 year olds i've tried to explain this to can't understand it. Half of them ask "why would you want to get rid of a baby if you asked the stork to bring you one? Why didn't they not ask the stork?" and the older kids that do get it are freaked out that that's a decapitated bloody baby, it's like a horror movie to them.

Well said .Clashingtaco their are just too many (and I did not say all) pro-lifer's that do not understand what some of this stuff does to a child's mind and a lot of adult's. This is another thing that makes pro-choice people more open and understanding, you do not see us parading around with pictures and handing out garbage, we are there to help those who have had abortions and who do not understand of what the choices actually are.

taco I think if 5 year old kids ask me I would just say the thruth to them as I don't believe in telling lies to children. So I would probably begin by saying that stork doesn't exist.

It is like a horror movie to me as well!

I don't think lying to children is right all the time but sometimes it's best to protect them. Children don't understand everything like adults do, although there are many adults that don't understand things. Kids don't always understand what sex is, they don't understand why people would do it and kill babies. Some questions you can't give answers to kids.

And besides all that. Kids don't watch horror movies if they get nightmares from them, so why should someone force them to be exposed to something that is worse that anything found in a horror movie. I have cousins that cry after watching the old frankinstein movies and can't sleep for weeks, imagine what they'd be like if they saw a picture of an aborted fetus...Especially if they knew what it was! The picture is bad enough but telling them it's a dead baby that was sucked out of the mother because she didn't want it is that much worse!

Well taco you know I can see a picket from a distance, if I were with my children I would just avoid walking through where they are. I am 33 years old and the first time I ever saw an abortion picket for the first time in my life was this year. And they didn't had any pictures.

Nightangel I pray for your children then. They are children remember. You dont explain to them about serial killers, child molesters and rapists. As far as they are concerned at 5, babies come from a stork. Like I said they are children not mini adults. You dont see people waving about picket-signs with dead raped women-try explaining that to your 5 year old. So why is it ok for them to wave about a picture of a dead feotus? Like you said "they are people".

you wouldn't teach your 5 year old about the badness in the world?
Then it is your children I pity not nightangels. At 5 year old children do know that the stork does not bring baby's and that babies come from mummy not the stork or at least my lot do what is the use of confusing children with fairytales of the stork bringing babies when in a few years time you will just completly contradict yourself explaining the real process?
My children all know about abortion and the fact that babies are a conseguence of sex and even that some men/women will not take no for an answere if this should ever happen to them they need to know from an early age that they need to tell someone and that it is wrong of the said person to force them into anything my children all watch the news (this is one of my rules even my 4 year old) they need to know that the world is not all flowers and roses and that there are bad people out there who have murdered and raped would you not rather prepare your child for the real world than have them live the fairy tale exsistance and go out into the world unprepared?

You would pity my children. Mmm its yours you should pity hun, I mean if you have a little girl, you tell her cinderella is fake, and just a fairy tale. Thats called not letting your child have an imagination. I dont know how america works with parent/children relationships but here in england we leave thing like abortion/murder3rs/child molesters to older kids not 5 years olds. Sheeeeesh thats like telling your 5 year old father christmas isnt real.And the tooth fairy is you! Dont take me wrong im not questioning your parent skills. You can bring you children up however you want, and I can bring mine up however I want. Alright

oh and babies are not a conciquence of sex...Think of a better way to say it.


And just for the record I didnt know about abortion until I was about...15 years old. And I believed in father christmas till I was 8. I played with barbies till I was 8. I didnt know about murder3rs and the harsh would till I was in my teens. In no means was I not ever ready for the world living in a fantasy world.


Like I said children are children, not mini adults, leave some things till they are older, unless u want them to grow up fast and be out the house with a job at 13. Thats your way hun, not everyones way. Remember your not the only mother in the world, you shouldnt question other people parenting skills. Cause then they can question yours, which you and I both know you wont like.

Childrens minds are innocent and they should be left that way until they are old enough. And 5 years old is not old enough. Well not in my views anyway.

lmao I am in england hun and as for me questioning other peoples parenting skills I think you will find that was you directed at nightangle

also a slip up on my part but I have just noticed that you have put the act of serial killer in with abortion are you now saying abortion is homicide?

Any questions on my parenting skills I would be only to happy to answer as my children may be young and innocent but I have also made sure they have knowledge of the real world and they know it isn't full of sunshine and flowers and that they d.T.N I keep my children safe by instilling the knowledge that the world is an evil place to be.

My children have all the imaginitive play they need btw they just know it is nothing like the fairytale world in reality and that they will always need to be on their guard against the bad in the world now if that is bad parenting then I stand quilty as charged but as I have succesfully raised 2 of my children to adult hood with no mishaps I am very confident that my parenting is up to scratch.

Thank you for your concern for my childerns welfare though I assure you it is not needed.

are not most horror movies if not all horror movies an 18 rated, so children should not be watching them, so do you not think it is a bit hypocritical for you to be complaining about pictures of aborted fetus, when it is ok by you for children to watch horror movies, which are far worse than any abortion picture.

Lmao no lolbah I didnt say that. My 3 years old cousin for example it took so long for me to try and convince him there was a baby in his mothers 9 month belly but he kept telling me, yes, then the stork brings it to the house. Some kids dont even wanna know. I leave it at that. And he has a great imagineation. As long as he knows right from wrong its alright it my eyes. I thought about the whole stork thing till I was older than 5, and I turned out fine.
Diamond I am not questioning your parental skills, or worries for your childrens benefit lmao. Theyre your kids. Raise them how you please. I was just reminding you some people dont parent the same was as you. I dont come on here trying to offend anyone. Unlike some people.

children can still remain innocent without resorting to lies just because you prepare your child for the bad things in life as well as the good things does not mean that they lose their innocence.

I Have to Reply to This One
Posted: 06-20-06 16:28pm

I really dont think that it is appropriate for a child to see those type of pictures regardless of the age.. And I do believe that some children could have nightmares.. And I have to reply to one of the comments.. There are some things that your children just dont need to know. You are not lying to them you just tell them that you dont think that they are old enough to understand and when you think that they are old enough you will eplain it to your child then. A parent is a provider and protector and a nourisher.. So there are some things that we just need to protect our children from and pictures about abortion in my own opinion is one of them.. I too think that it should be banned. There is no reason why a child ( child age 0-13) maybe a little older just depending on the maturity and etc. In my opinion do not under no circumstance at all need to see anything like that..

i don't recall my mom ever saying me that a child come from any stork. When I have children I will decide what will be the appropiate answers to those questions but thank you for the prayer. I am praying for you as well. As regard to the picket like I said this situation is very unlikely to happen. I remember a time when I was little I slept with parents for some time because of some horror movie I saw. I was older maybe like 10 years old. It was those of antichrist movies, like owen. But you know for taking my sleep away it took a lot to see of the movie. Glancing at a pic for just seconds I don't see how that could cause nightmares. Obviously you are not going to stay for a while in the picket hanging with a 5 year old kid.

Yes we lie to our children just like all of the childrens books. :roll:

Anyway another pointless dicussion...Tazzy d really had it all in one.
