You obviously know that you are a good mother, you don’t need anyone to tell you that. When I am faced with situations like these, where I have people questioning my abilities as a soon-to-be mom or giving me an unsupportive reaction to my decision to keep my baby, I do my best to show them that I am mature enough to handle the responsibility reguardless of what they think by saying things like…
"I appriciate you telling me your opinion, however, I disagree with you, and I hope you can be supportive of my decision." By lashing out you are only making the problem bigger, but you can’t sit there and say nothing. If she continues to act unsupportive, then don’t spend time with her. Surround yourself with people who do support you, and put yourself and your baby in a POSITIVE enviornment.
Or you could try voodoo or something. hahaha.I saw it and liked it. It was very cheerful and funny for such a serious subject, which makes it of course unrealistic. And in my opinion kind of glamorizes teen pregnancy, which I don’t agree with. But definately go see it!!!!
A few years back I was totally and completely pro-life. I was someone who was always saying, "How could someone do that to their own flesh and blood?" Well, ask and you shall recieve, because when I was 14 I found out I was pregnant. After a lot of thought and tears, I decided to have an abortion. It has been almost 5 years since then. I have only recently started going to counseling specifically for coping with an abortion. I have only recently started to forgive myself and to belive that God will forgive me too. Having an abortion was the hardest thing I have ever done, and I have had my share of hardships. It is something that, much like having another child, will change you for the rest of your life. YOU are the one who has to live with the consequences of every decision you make. I hope that this is at least a little helpful.
