[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I could never abort in that situation, but many people obviously would. Your child could also be extremely easily placed via adoption — this is literally most adoptive parents dream scenario (stable, non addict mother who genuinely voluntarily chooses not to parent despite having the means to), if you wanted to go that route. It’s really ultimately how you personally feel about it.[/quote]

You know nothing about the agony of relinquishing a child for adoption.  Of course you are thinking of the dream scenario for adopters.  But what does a child feel when she finds out that her mother was healthy and capable but just didn't want her?  What does a woman feel when she carries a pregnancy to term but can't be in contact with her child or be sure she is okay?

You also completely discount the fact that pregnancy and childbirth change a woman's body in major ways, sometimes debilitating ways.  A friend of mine has severe vaginal prolapse.  I had pre-eclampsia and now have cardiac issues.

Terminating a pregnancy is a much safer and less painful option if the pregnant woman does not want to be a mother.[/quote]

Didn’t want is very different than could not raise at that time.

Often adoption is the must mature and selfless decision a person can make.[/quote]
