Subject: Abortion thoughts

"Abortion Thoughts?"
Question:
This is a serious issue. A baby isn't a baby until it is born. At this stage, it is just a bundle of cells with the capabilities of becoming a life. Having an abortion could prevent the baby from growing up in a struggling home and save the parents from ruining her lives. Babies are only for mature adults who can take care of them. Thank you for your time and I would appreciate it if you write back to me and tell me your thoughts.
Female, Age 16

Answer: I think the problem is if the teenager that gets pregnant wants to keep or not the baby’s life. In the majority of the cases they don’t think they can have the parents’ support to help in this task of take care of the new born and they start to think about abortion and other things as leaving home. The parents’ support sometimes takes more time to come, mainly by the father that is more resistant to accept that his daughter is pregnant, but after some time he becomes more open to the idea of being grandfather. There are other cases that the girls don’t receive the parents’ support. Even in that case I think if the teenagers really want to have their babies they should look for friends, government’s organizations or something like that to help them.
At first, one pregnancy seems to the teenager as the end of the world. They think they will lose their teenager hood taking care of their babies and so on. But I know some women that have passed by these experiences and they say that they could do everything again if it were the case. After they have passed by this experience they never regret for the choice made. This is different in the case of the women that decided to have an abortion. They usually do not forgive themselves for have done that.
My advice for all the women, mainly the teenagers, is that there are many possibilities when a situation like that comes to their lives and it is important to think in all of those possibilities before to decide to have an abortion. There are real lives inside them and in my opinion, in most of the cases, we should do everything to keep them, unless it is an special case as risk of death for the mother etc….
