[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][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] NP, I would so much rather have an abortion than know my child is somewhere out there in the world in the care of strangers. I have no problem terminating the growth of a few cells, but it would kill me to carry a pregnancy to term and then hand over my baby. Call me selfish. I don’t care. You have to be very cold to just hand over your living, breathing baby and go on like nothing happened.[/quote] I agree, I would think about them and imagine what it would’ve been like frequently.[/quote] +1 Most people cannot do this: carry a baby, deal with the morning sickness and other stresses, attend doctor's appointments, modify their diet and lifestyle, and then just give the baby away.[/quote] +100. Seriously-I hate when people are all casually like “just give the baby up for adoption”. Like-the amount of physical and emotional stress involved in a pregnancy is not casual. Everyone around you will know you are pregnant and ask you questions. It’s not as easy at all and it’s a very big deal. And it’s about 6 billion times more traumatic for the mother than an abortion. And also, as if people aren’t aware of that option? Like you just suggested something nobody has ever thought about before? Give me a break.[/quote]
