| I hate abortions. I personally think that no matter how short the pregnancy is, it's still a living being inside of you. Fetus'... I just cringe at the thought that I was in that sittuation once. I was that tiny, that undeveloped and vunrable. And i grew into the person i am now. To me, a fetus is still a life just waiting to expand. It would be terrible if i got pregnant now. I am no way old enough and matture enough to have a baby. But I know that if i did become pregnant, i doubt I could go through with an abortion. Just knowing i'm responsible for making a life then choosing to let it die, it freaks me out. It deserves a chance. Not just that.. and this is a silly thing to say because i'm only seventeen.. but it's not just a life. It's a life combined from myself and the person i love more than anyone in the world. I couldn't stand the thought of aborting something that is a mixture of my boyfriend and I.
However, dispite all these passionate feelings against abortion, i see why it's appropiate in alot of sittuations. For example. My cousin kellie became pregnant at fifteen. She kept her child and is the worst mother i know. And i don't speak to her anymore because i hate the way she treats her child. She's no mother. She discusts me. She's got this precious little baby and all she cares about is herself.
Then i have another cousin, kim. Who accidently became pregnant at sixteen and abortion was the right choice for her. She has moved on in life, she's doing well.
I can see abortion is the right answer for people, and i respect their views and reasons for why they did it.
But I personally would not have an abortion myself. I just feel a fetus is a life, however small it is.  |
