[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]she didn't say having the baby and putting it up for adoption was an option

I mean, sure, it MIGHT be an option, but I can't even imagine someone in her situation with 2 older kids going through with the pregnancy only to give their sibling up for adoption.

My sister in law did. She had two kids, got pregnant at 32 and didn't want a third so she put the baby up for adoption. She changed the lives of a lovely couple who now have a son. Everyone involved feels like that was the right decision. [/quote]

I honestly find that horrifying. I think the greater good is terminating in that scenario. My guess is most people who do this actually missed the termination time limit. [/quote]

Well I find it horrifying you think it would have been better for her to terminate a baby that has brought joy to a lot of people lives. I thought it was the right to CHOOSE. She made a choice everyone was happy with. Except you, stranger on the internet apparently. [/quote]

You’re turning the child into an object here.  A source of joy.  Do you have any idea what it is like to be abandoned, given to another family, while your parents and your older siblings all got to stay together?  Do you know the survivor’s guilt of you parents giving your youngest siblings away?  No?[/quote]
