I am with smiley21: I myself would choose NOT to have an abortion if I were pregnant...

I am old enough to know where babies come from... I also consider myself a responsible adult who made the choice to sleep with man unprotected and know that I could get pregnant... So, basically, I am saying, I made my bed, so I now could lie in it...

One thing to consider:

For the ladies:

If none of you have been pregnant, then you really don't know what you will do until you are in that situation...


For the gentlemen:

If you haven't ever gotten a woman pregnant, then how do you really know what you will do when you have gotten into that situation???


On that note: I have a close friend who carries a severe genetic disorder. She does not have the genetic disorder, but she is a carrier... At any rate, she has a 1 in 50 chance in producing offspring that could have this disorder... If her egg is fertilized and implants into the uterus and becomes a fetus, it possibly with live until birth... But the child born will have no skull, none of the organs will develop fully and it will not live passed day 2 outside of the mother... Well, she found out thru genetic testing on her first pregnancy, that her child had the disorder. She decided to abort at 6 months...

I have had other friends and family use abortion as birth control...

I have had other friends and family use abortion because it was their choice...

Then I have had friends and family who have had their children, and jacked up their children's lives...

Sooooo??? I dunno...

But either way we look at it, the concept of abortion is a political one... The bottom line is a personal one...
