A Real Tough Decision..What Would You Do??

I'd take the pill (morning after or BC) , I couldnt have an adoption but i guess abortion would be the last resort but at 14 yrs old i couldnt keep it and i certainly wouldnt tell anyone but my very close friends.

Maybe when im older i might choose a different option but not now b/c at the end of the day i wouldn't want my parents to know b/c i jus wouldnt be able to live with myself.

I had no idea so many women were raped,

 

I've actually been there......it was before the morning after pill and I had to abort it.... I didn't have much choice really... if I tried to carry it to term I would have had major complications ..... not to mention I had only turned 15 when I found out I was preg.... At the time I was having a hard time dealing with the rape itself..... the thought of a piece of him being with me for life.... no child should ever be thought of as a burden in my eyes.... and in my head right then that's all I could think..... people can look down on me all they want for being pro-choice..... but if I, personally, hadn't had that choice....... I would not even be close to where I am now or close to the person I am now.

 

I'd probably be too shocked to react quickly enough to take the morning after pill (or too in denial), but as soon as I would come to, I would get an abortion, followed by an examination for STI's, followed by whatever treatment would be needed to get rid of any STI'd, followed by extensive counselling.

 

It would all depend on my situation in life and age, i don't think i could ever have an abortion, i would just try to work something else out so that the child could have a good life, plus it is half mine and although the pain would be hard for me to deal with i think the pain of terminating it would be much worse for me personally.

 

the only way I'd have an abortion is if there was something really wrong with the baby that would make its quality of life exceedingly poor. As to whether I'd keep it or not, it would depend on whether my boyfriend could accept the baby and raise it as his own. If he couldn't, then I'd find a good home for it.

 

erm......im completely against abortion. but you know? i cant honestly say, ive never (thank goodness) been raped and gotten pregnant by it.
i'd be on the morning after pill very quickly, too, but if that didnt work, id raise the kid.
i believe that no matter what, every person deserves:
-a chance to live, and
-a chance to have their real mother by their side.

 

Every person deserves that, but embryos aren't people.

 

thats CRAP
thats like telling me my embryo child i miscarried "wasnt a real child"
thats not an ok thing to say.....

 

if it happened to me, I would quickly abort!

 

It's never the baby's fault. I think males have to understand that they are responsible. Abortion is about ending the life of something they began. If they gave more thought to beginning life, perhaps abortion would be unnecessary.

 

I would either get the morning after pill or if it was too late i would terminate the baby as fast as i could but it would really hard for me because it wasnt its fault. Just knowing that your killing something thats really yours and deserves a chance at life is so sad.

 

Terminate the pregnancy as soon as possible.

Unless I'd be truly desperate in wishing for a baby...

 

Terminate the pregnancy

 

I think I would carry it and give it up for adoption. Only because I had a pre-labor abortion when I was raped and I hated knowing I killed a child like that. I had to, though, because I was so young and it was too big of a risk for me and it was causing severe health problems.

 

1. Keep the baby and raise him/her regardless BUT ONLY IF the child was tested ASAP for disease or anything like that. It's a really tough topic actually because what if you keep the child and it seems fine until she/he gets older? I guess us women would have to use our intuition...

 

It would depend on many things. Those are all good options.
1. If she really wanted a baby and didn't feel too bad about being raped (but who wouldn't) and raising a baby that was a product of rape, and was emotionally and financially stable then she could keep it.
2nd and 3rd though I think are the best options. Why would she keep a baby that came from rape? Nobody should expect her to do that. I wouldn't even expect her to carry it, but if she didn't want to have an abortion then I guess she'd have to.
Me, I would terminate.

 

unintended babies should be aborted...earth already has enough population problems

 

That is what you think.. and It is not what I think.... but weather you want to believe it or not it is a baby.

 

my first sexual experience was a rape.....i was only 14 and got pregnant. i decided to keep it--i felt it wasn't the baby's fault his dad was an asshole & maybe this was a miracle coming from something ugly and that maybe this baby was 'meant to be' exactly the way it came--we had something to teach each other. i loved being pregnant & i loved this little baby--it almost was a happy distraction from the rape--the rape was small compared to this living thing growing inside me.

sadly it was a stillborn......but in a way that was a blessing in that the baby left on its own so i don't carry the heaviness of an "abortion" on my plate. i trusted universal intelligence to let things unfold the way it should....and i guess it did.

 

I'd carry the baby full term and give it up for adoption.
I don't believe in abortion. It's not the babies fault.
Why would I kill something that did nothing wrong, when it could be given to a family that can't have kids, who would give it all the love they had, and treat it as their own.
Regardless of whether I was ready to have kids, I'd still go through with having it.
