I don't think you should rush to this just yet.

I can only imagine how hard it is being a single parent  - my sister is one.  But a sibling to your DC might be a good thing, especially if you do divorce.

Are you worried that your baby might be bipolar, too?  I can understand that. I think I would be, too.[/quote]

Their marriage is on the rocks.  Why the hell would you bring a child in to that situation?  That is selfish.[/quote]

I love when people pretend the selfish decision is to NOT have an abortion. Why doesn't she just kill her five year old too? I mean, isn't it selfish for her to allow her daughter to be in that situation?[/quote]

I think it's absolutely the wrong decision to bring a second child into this situation. You're so concerned about the 5-year-old? Fine. The 5-year-old's parents are on the brink of divorce, the father is abusive (such that their counselor won't see them until he completes anger management therapy) and the mother is pregnant. So that 5-year-old you're so worried about is facing the possibility of two homes, one with abusive bipolar dad and one with mom and brand new baby. A new baby OR a divorce are huge adjustment issues for a kid of any age, but all these things combined? Yeah, it's selfish to bring a second child into this situation.

Also, according to the law, killing a 5-year-old child is a crime. Ending a 6 week pregnancy is not. Your opinion is your opinion. A large percentage of the population does not share your opinion and the law is on our side, not yours.

OP, for your sake, I hope that things work out in whatever way is best for your family. Is your husband going to anger management therapy already? Does he know you are pregnant?[/quote]
