[quote=Anonymous]I'm always amazed when someone struggling with fertility wishes infertility on others.  I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.  I think this is a sign that you need to get into some therapy.  Along the way, you're going to come across people who have abortions, people who you think you would make a better parent than, people whose parenting styles you find awful (not talking abuse) etc.  If you go through life wishing ill thoughts towards these people, you'll end up very bitter.

I understand why you're mad at your friend, I really do.  After struggling with infertility for X number of years, a close friend had an abortion a month after I had a very rough miscarriage (She found out she was pregnant around the time I was miscarrying).  She was honest about it and I HATED her for awhile.  It was the wife of DH's best friend and I couldn't be around her for quite awhile because of the situation.  Finally, DH sat me down and explained why they didn't think it was the right time to have a baby, and honestly, it made me realize that they were not cut out to be parents at that moment in time.  The baby honestly would not have been brought up in a very good environment because of issues they were having between themselves, as well as financially.   It's been about 7 months, and things are almost back to normal between us.  [/quote]
