What Would You Do Posted: 02-13-07 18:14pm
Would you make your daughter carry a child
full term even if she didnt want it?
Would you be willing to support both your
daughter and her kids without repremanding
her? Whats ur view on children having
children and what is acceptable by
society?

never. Her body, her choice.

that would depend on her age, and why she
was pregnant. A teen, I would suggest
abortion or adoption to. If she kept
it, i'd help during her highschool years
but after that she'd need to find help
from the govrnment. I'd help her find
this support, but if she wants a baby,
that makes her an adult in my eyes.
I'll care for her till she's 18 or
graduated from highschool, whichever
happens last.

i don't think children should be having
children; they are not ready physically,
emotionally, financially, or mentally.
I also don't think it is acceptable by our
society, and I don't think it should be.
There is a time and a place to have
babies. Highschool is not it.

never. Just like I
wouldn't force a woman in my care to
obtain an abortion against her will
either.

if she's old enough to
be having children, she is pretty much too
old for me to be reprimanding her. And,
no, I would not be willing to support both
her and her children. If she is old
enough to have children, she is old enough
to care for those children. If, after
some time on her own, she realizes she
cannot do it alone (depending on her age),
I would secure her legal representation to
obtain an adoption. I would not throw
her out onto the street but I would
require her to get a job (while still in
school, she would not be allowed to drop
out) and pay me rent and some other bills.
I would help her locate what little
government support is available but I
would expect her to start taking on total
responsibility for herself and her child.
If she's such an adult to go through such
a life changing event, then she's adult
enough to start shouldering her fair share
of responsibility for herself.

it's always happened and
at least society no longer treats the
children horribly for something they had
no control over.

thing is it still happens, after reading
alot of prolife post I want to post the
negatives of the other options they
treasure dearly, so what is the best
option?
Some woman are coerced or forced into a
pregnacy, if they do not keep it society
frowns on them. If a child has a child,
pro-life is happy but they that child
cannot support a newborn and henc the
parent are left with the dirty work.
Society frowns upons both and I honestly
feel that both should be open to anyone.
So in the end neither side wins, except
pro-choice has the advantage of promoting
everything in unbiased manner isnt that
freedom? Being able to make choices?
Being able to learn evolve etc?
I just dont understand some of the bs I
see on here, how can a fetus suffer when
it cannot feel pain, explain that one?
Explain to me why a childs parent should
be forced to take care of a
child/grandchild upon their will?
Why should I be judged for being
pro-choice when that is my belief, I
believe in freedom of thought, freedom to
make choices and equality, so if your
pro-life wouldnt that make you somewhat
prejudist?

I would not force my daughter to carry to
term but if she wanted to then I would
support her all the way. If she wasn't
old enough to support herself and her
child then I would do so. I wouldn't
like my daughter to have an abortion
because in my mind she would be killing my
grandchild but if, after being presented
with all her options, she chose abortion
then I would be there to hold her hand
when she went through with it. I would
never stop loving my daughter although I
would find it hard to like her if she
continued to have unwanted pregnancies and
abortions because of carelessness.
As for the foetal pain issue, I think the
jury is still out on that one but science
is giving us a clearer picture on it every
day. However, the issue for me is not so
much the pain a foetus feels (although of
course that is a big issue) but the fact
that a human life is being taken by
another.

i wouldn't make her do anything. I would
not suggest a course of action; I would
only present her with information,
including that I will be supportive of her
and her child if she chooses to have it.
I would not want my daughter and my
granddaughter to be in the situation so
many young mothers are in, so I would
support her. It takes a village...
I don't think children should be having
children. (reminds me of the .Sly .Stone
song with the lyrics, "babies makin'
babies") more education, birth control,
and promoting self-confidence in kids is
needed.

I tihnk there was a topic (or irrelevant
discussion within another topic) similar
to this, and I got flamed massively for my
response. I'll just keep this concise:
i would never force my daughter to carry a
pregnancy to term, but if she chose to
keep the child, she'd be finding herself a
new place to live (if she was still living
with me, that is). If she wants to mess
up her life, then that's fine - but I
wouldn't be the one shelling out the money
for her mistakes.
