NP-Sorry, but what she "wants" to do is pretty far down on the list of things to consider.


Her body, her choice.

Are you advocating for someone other than the mother to decide when an abortion is appropriate or not?


No, but I'm also not willing to just accept that an immature addict has the skills to make a decision without pointing out to her that she's no longer the most important part of the equation and that she needs to make a realistic plan.

This baby will have an awful upbringing if she decides to keep it.

No Father, an addicted Mother, life in the projects, etc.
Will probably be raised on welfare/food stamps/Medicaid, etc.

OP already stated that the goddaughter decided to keep the baby. Is ‘my body, my choice’ true only when a woman is choosing what we think is the best for her? Are you really advocating for a forced abortion?


According to OP the kid attended a posh private school. Op didn’t say but did the deceased parents leave a trust in the child’s name? Presumably she gets survivor benefits and is of good intelligence.
