wow.

i just came across this site- http://www.helpmybabylive.com/

it's a young couple asking for donations. if they get $50,000 in 3 months they'll continue the pregnancy and raise the baby. if they do not reach their goal they will abort.

That makes me sick! I can't believe someone did that..

But it kinda makes me wonder, are the even pregnant or is it just a scam to get money? Either way these people need to grow up and get a darn job!

i just can't believe that it's real.

i've decided it's either a scam or some sort of social experiment.

It kinda sounds like a social experiment to me. I think I am going to check it out though and see if it is legit. The poor child if it is.

wow. talk about feeling mixed emotions right now. this couple is disgusting. i'm sorry, but i value the life of a child very much, but i wouldn't donate a cent to them. even if they do make their $50,000 - how responsible could they really be if they're in desperate need of other people's money to raise .T.H.E.I.R kid? seriously, this has to be some sort of scam.

I'm furious with that, whether it's real or not.
Are you kidding me!?

"we'll never tell"
I really hope this is a scam!

I must ask, how in the world do you find this stuff? You always seem to find such obscure information.


I am too disgusted to even think about what I just read. I would like to think it is a social experiment. I can't imagine the other possibilities.

i just spend waaaaay too much time on the computer. actually, this one was posted on another forum i go to.

so if it's real (and i highly doubt that it is), they're basically holding their unborn child ransom.

did anyone read the terms and conditions? by giving them money you agree to them, if you violate anything you must give them $25,000. and this is the first term/condition-

"You are _giving_ us money, with no expectation of getting anything in return, ever. We are not obligated to do, or refrain from, anything as a result of your or anyone else's donation."

so basically that says that even if they get the money they can still decide to abort.

I think this is one of the most ridiculous things .I have ever heard in my entire life.
I am curious to know if they do get enough to "save their baby" what kind of scam are they going to pull to "save their toddler"?

Some people simply should not be allowed to reproduce. Period.

The only thing I can think of saying at this moment is how sick do you have to be to place this burden on anyone who may come across your web site and have a heart and be gullible enough to give money that they have saved up in case of emergencies or for a well needed vacation because they feel that if they do that they may be saving the life of a innocent child, when in actuality do you really think that if this is not a scam that these people should be raising a child to have morals such as this? and I am sure that at some point in this childs life whether it be as a child or as an adult they will find out that their "parents" (using the term loosely) did this. This really angers me and makes me sick to even think that there are people like this in the world. Evil or

Lol Terra...
I wasnt going to write anything here because I just dont know what to think about it. I dont think that their site is right at all, all I could do was shake my head and try not to think about it.

How Horrible! I hope she is not pregnant and this is a scam and they get busted! I wouldn't want parents like that! Just my opinion.
