I hear this at times too and it makes me so mad. I do believe that abortion is wrong because it is taking an innocent human being’s life. But I know how you feel. People talk about it so carelessly; I even overheard a couple once who were on there way to have an abortion and they were joking about it and about pregnancy in general. I felt awful. I’ve never been pregnant but I have helped to raise my younger brothers and sisters, and I hope to raise a family of my own someday (when I meet the right guy). I’ve heard of lots of girls who do regret their abortion. Abortion is not the answer to the problem; it just creates a new one.
Hey, just my thoughts…
I do believe it’s best to wait until marriage to have sex.
That said, I think it’s wonderful that you and Kyle are open to having a baby. So many young people (including some of my friends) think it is best to put off having kids, if they want to have any or get married at all. So I think it’s neat that you two do want kids. There is also growing evidence that contraception can harm relationships because it prevents you from giving all of yourself to your spouse/boyfriend/girlfriend. (I am NOT pointing fingers at anyone, on this site or off, so please don’t take this offensively in anyway). Raising a kid can definitely help a relationship, not kill it. My parents raised six kids and it has really helped their relationship, they also lost a baby (my brother). All of us kids are really good friends (this doesn’t mean there isn’t the occasional fight or misunderstanding though lol).Just to offer some support, Megan and Kyle. I do think it’s good that you want to have a baby, and I wish you both all the best in life 🙂
Hey there! You won’t regret keeping your baby; your baby will love you for it! Anyways, all the best, and congrats. I took some online courses in high school (from home) and they went really well. Let me know if you ever need anything, and all the best 🙂
For boys, some of my favourites are Damian, Sean, Ned, and Liam.
For girls, Hayley, Abby, Eliza, Anthia, and Shannah.
I love the name Logan too; I’ve heard it on both guys and girls. My puppy’s name is Tayla, we really like it.
Hope this helped a little 🙂 All the best!
I haven’t been through an abortion but know people who have had abortions often do regret them. They are also finding that abortion can lead to other health problems, such as difficulty conceiving again and breast cancer later in life. As Julia said, remember that abortion isn’t your only option, and that there are people who will be willing to help you and won’t judge you. I’m not sure where you are located, but one place if you need someone to help is the Sisters of Life (http://sistersoflife.org/); I’ve met them and they’re really nice, but there are others who can help as well. Adoption is also a beautiful option; there are so many misconceptions about it but it is truly a wonderful option for the birth mother, baby, and adoptive family. Let me know if I can help at all.
Take care!I’m so sorry to hear about your abortion; the hurt of that can never really go away but I’m also happy you are finding it easier now 🙂 And congrats on the new baby!! Pressure from friends/family is one of the biggest reasons why girls get abortions; I know it’s hard that your mother isn’t supportive but this little girl is YOUR baby, and you are so fortunate to have her. Don’t let anyone change your mind. I’ve never been through what you are going through but I have heard stories where the girl’s mother changed her mind after she saw the baby. And don’t be afraid if you think adoption might be the right road; two of my cousins were adopted and they are the sweetest and most beautiful little girls I’ve ever met!! I honestly can’t imagine my life without them. Anyway, I hope this helps, and feel free to contact me if you need a friend 🙂 Take care and all the best!
