Abortions

I cant believe I am admitting this to you all, but if it will help anyone then I have always said my life is open to anyone that asks. When I was 15 I started dating guy who was 7 years older. We date almost for 2 year. Toward the middle of the 2nd year I got pregnant. I never even thought about keeping or having the baby. It was drilled into my head that it couldnt/shouldnt happen. My cousin worked for our local planned parenthood at the time so I went for a test & verified it. Our local planned parenthood didnt do abortions so we contacted my CF clinic. I go to a catholic center so they couldnt do it there, but the director of my clinic at the time referred us somewhere. For those wondering......the guy I was with told me he had an injury as a boy that left him sterile. I was not educated by my parents on sex & I was "IN LOVE" so I didnt ??? him. Not until the end when he must have known I was pregnant & started using condoms "just in case". TUrns out when I told him about the pregnancy (against my mothers wishes) that he denied it because he used condoms. He didnt calculate well tho. I was too far along for the condom usage to clear him of fatherhood.

I have had to make the hard choice of whether to have an abortion or not. Mine was not health issues, but personal.



My personal choice was I could not go through with an abortion, BUT I am very pro choice. I do not believe men in the government should be able to tell a woman if she can have an abortion or not.



It is a very personal choice, and only the woman going through it can decide what is best for her body and mind.



Just my opinion!

Yes, thanks for keeping this civil everyone. I'm the original anony poster. Two of you have mentioned experiencing this, but you were really young. I'm much older then that, very happily married and I'm still questioning this because of my health. If I am pregnant, I don't know yet for sure, then my husband and I have serious business to think over.

My doctor told me a few years ago that if I wanted to have kids that I should have had them then, right then, before anything happened to my health. Years later, we are married and my health has gone downhill. We've discussed adoption, except now with this current desicion to make, I don't know what to do. I'm trying to prepare myself. It is a very personal choice.

Amy,

I found your question quite rude. If I wanted to discuss which child I had to make this decision about I would have stated it in my original post.

Melissa,

I'm sorry you had to go through that at such a young age. As I read your post I pictured Lauren who is 15. Did your parents support you through it? I hope so. I hope your family was there to give you their love and support.

I have always told the girls if they get pregnant to come and talk to us about it. I want them to know that although we will not be happy about it, we will be there to support them 100% and help them make the best choice for them.

I understand why you object to amy's question, but I can also see her side. Obviously, you're willing to mention this on an internet forum which is clearly linked to your name and images of you which your children and other friends and family know about. Therefore it seems obvious that this is not something that you're going to efforts to avoid. Knowing which child adds information, because it helps to see if it was due to a youth thing, a I already have young kids who are wearing me out, or already have my boy and girl or whatever...

You're definitely justified to choose not to answer, but getting an attitude about it towards Amy just isn't fair. You don't even have to choose to express your intent to not answer -- you could just not answer if that was easier. But you brought it up, attacking her for reading and responding to you just isn't in good style.
