i don't see why pro-lifers
should have to 'leave' this board. As
long as they are not being argumentative
and imflammatory then I think their
opinions and advice is just as useful as a
pro-choicer's (to whom the same rules
apply). Obviously, if someone is
writing to say they are certain they want
an abortion and want to know about
procedures and stuff then it would be
inappropraite for a pro-lifer to tell that
person that they are evil and wrong etc.
However, if someone wants advice about
what to do in their circumstances of, for
example, an unwanted pregnancy, then a
pro-lifer has as much right as a
pro-choicer to respond on this board.
Everyone just needs to respect each
other's opinions, not stoop to childish
name-calling and most of all, be
supportive and helpful to the original
poster.
like I said, I only asked them to leave as
they were not offering support. This is
an abortion support forum. Is that
really so hard to understand? Ive been
coming on here a long time, and everytime
a pro-lifer comes on here it is
non-support. So from my experience. I
was right again. Neither of them offered
support. That why I asked them to leave.
Jesus.
This isnt even about the original topic
anymore. So lets just leave it at that
shall we.

i totally agree. I hope what I said
didn't come across the wrong way and I
wasn't having a personal dig, i've just
realised I was wrong to quote what one
person had said and for that I apologise
cowboys.
But leave the health forum to the debate
forum. If you don't like what someone
has said then don't reply to it. Please
don't think i've joined this forum and am
trying to take over or anything, I just
don't think i'll be coming back for advice
about my current situation after reading
through a few of the topics on here. If
the replys are just going to be people
health forum about what other people have
said, i'm not interested. I need support
and understanding at the moment, not a
slanging match. (again, don't take that
the wrong way, I know nothing has been
aimed at me, but I don't want to put
myself in the situation where it can be)
thanks anyway, was worth a try, good luck
to everyone :d

agrees, some of us can take it too far we
have all done it but agree with purest
hope you get the help you need
Shame on you lot! Only carifairy here
seems to have actually responded in a
polite and decent way to a woman seeking
help and support. I don't want to lower
my level to that of some of the people
here, but I must say, nataliachick7, you
revolt me to the bone. It appears that
here and in many other threads you attack
and abusively criticise women in need. I
wish you would leave this forum; you
probably won't, though, however the
moderators here should block you.
So, on with my support offerings: it
appears way too late to abort (by law)
and, assuming that your friend is
financially and mentally stable, she
wouldn't get the two agreements from her
doctors to allow her to terminate the
pregnancy. On a personal level, I would
agree with you in that your friend doesn't
seem very certain about wanting to abort.
I would imagine her to be one of the
unfortunate women who would suffer with
guilt and a lot of depression
post-abortion. The best thing she can do
is tell her partner that she cheated on
him, that he may not be the father of the
baby, and to hopefully work out some sort
of arrangement. I mean, even if the baby
does turn out to be his, her boyfriend may
not forgive her for her adultery. Maybe
he will. But the point is, he as her
partner and possible father-to-be of her
child has a right to know of his
girlfriend's fling and the possible
consequences.
Depending on her partner's reaction, your
friend may end up being a single parent.
Make sure she knows this and that she
needs to prepare for the consequences now
(as opposed to when her child is born
(assuming s/he will be full white)).
There are many options and abortion seems
a very unlikely one. Reassure her that
you will always be there to offer your
friendship and support, whatever
happens.

thats great, im honest, and I dont sugar
coat things, and I dont care if you dont
like it. It was incredibly idiotic of
this person to be having one night stands
unprotected. Are you not aware that there
are deadly diseases out there? Do you not
realize that you probably know nothing
about this one night stands health
history? Its time to wake up. That is
just stupidity. And then to become
pregnant on top of it, and not want the
baby because of race-that is truly
revolting.
