I am 23 years old. I have 2 boys. They are 1 and 3. I am shocked at how a woman could under any circumstances actually murder her own child. A baby is a baby no matter where it is. Whether it has came out to greet you and say hello or whether it is still in its nice cozy home… A mother’s belly. I have always been against abortion. I did in the past though think that under extreme circumstances it should be ok. I no longer feel that way. If you are old enough to en gage in intercourse you should be old enough to take care of a child. If you are raped and get pregnant I can understand you may be angry. I suggest if you don’t want the baby adopt it out. It is not the babies fault! I have known people as young as 14 to have a baby. They kept it though. I think women don’t realize that when they get an abortion it is going to haunt them forever because they are killing their child and deep down in their heart they know this. It is a sad world that we can actually be ok with a woman killing a baby. Please tell me if a woman walks into a hospital room where her baby lays and kills it...is it murder? Of course, so why if a woman walks into a abortion clinic and lets a doctor take her baby of her hands and murder it is it legal? Some people may say well if it weren’t legal it would just be done on the black market like it was so long ago. Who cares? if that where the case it wouldn’t happen as often as it does now. Maybe some babies would be saved. They are so small and fragile. It is our job as adults to protect them. Whether we are protecting them from ourselves, our family, or even our wife or husband. If I knew a woman who wanted an abortion I would flat out say can I please take the baby and raise it. I will never ask you for anything. That is what I Would say. There are women out there who cannot have a child and want one so very, very bad. So why not just let them adopt the child? Also why would a woman listen to a man when he says get an abortion? It’s not his body or his heart being messed with. The word pro choice makes me sick. Prochoice for what? The choice of whether you should kill your child or not. Oh yay we as women get the choice to either KILL our baby or keep it alive. Wow! We really got screwed over. That should not even be a choice. That is a shame. I don’t who in their right mind would actually say I would rather murder my child than let someone w=else take it off my hands. I am saddened and disappointed by this. Please listen to me when I say if you are even thinking about an abortion just remember its murder. Your baby actually has a heartbeat, it could already have fingers, toes, hair, and it feels pain. So when the doctor sucks it out and kills it, it hurts the baby. It feels pain. That is the most important thing to remember. PAIN! I am a young mother who is struggling but my children always come first. If I only had a dollar in my pocket it would be all there’s if they needed it. I may not be able to give them the world but I gave them their life. That is the most precious and important thing I could have ever given them. I prayed for them and so far I am doing ok. I got pregnant at 18 and married. They are the love of my life. Sometimes it is stressful because I am only 23 and haven’t really got to have a lot of fun but I just say I will have my fun when they are grown. i beg of a woman if you get anything from this paper I have written please let it be they are a baby no matter their age size or location. They are alive and living in you. Please don’t hurt them.
