Topic: Abortion
Quote: I\'ve new to this site and everything and have spent a lot of time going through the abortion forum because I\'m about to have one and am curious as to what people are discussing. It seems that a lot of people have very strong opinions on abortion, but that\'s about as far as it goes, opinions. Has anybody on this forum ever had any experience with abortions? Ever had one yourself or know someone who had gone through it?\nJust curious as to how many people have gone through this traumatic event because I know that for myself, even being pro-choice, my opinions and views have changed. For instance, I don\'t for a second buy into the bs that is "a fetus is not alive or a human being". I know for a fact that the baby growing inside me alive, I just cannot accept it at this time in my life. Thanks for your responses.
Response: You have a lot of choices. My wife had an abortion before we met. My mother also had an abortion when I was about 8. They both have regretted it greatly. Have you considered adoption? There are many many many great couples who cannot have babies that would love to have one and some companies can set you up with those that are willing to pay for the doctors fees and hospital fees etc.\nThis is indeed traumatic and a difficult choice. It is one I do not wish on anyone. I hope you know some folks you can trust to guide you and to lean on regardless of your decision.\nYou can still keep it, even though it will be hard, giving life is a wonderful thing.\nI would suggest that you consider all angles. Talk with those that lead you both ways. Be wary of anyone who just confirms whatever you say. They are not likely giving you sound wisdom but just want you to like them. Pay attention to those that are secure enough in your relationship with them to speak openly and honestly to you. They may confirm your thoughts they may deny them.\nGood luck.\nEF
