What’s the point of that?  Go through the pregnancy and delivery and the trauma of giving up a child up for adoption for what? [/quote]

Dp. The point is to give the baby a chance at life and with a family who wouldlove and cherish them.[/quote]

Give them the chance to wonder why they were given up?  The chance to have lifelong abandonment issues.  People romanticize adoption, it’s ridiculous.  As someone who was adopted out in a very similar situation I hate when people who are clueless about adoption suggest it at every change they get.

[b]So you would have rather been killed In hydro and had had NO life?[/b][/quote]

I will speak up as someone who was the product of an unplanned pregnancy and parents (especially mom) with a Christian savior complex. It is horrible to grow up as an unwanted child. That’s a fact. Your kid will always  know. Maybe they won’t be able to articulate it as a child but that lingering feeling that you’re missing something so fundamentally human will be there forever. Adoption has its own issues and in this case it creates trauma for OP’s living children.

Yes, I would have preferred that my mom had an abortion.
