Thread: Abortion questions

An adult having sex with a minor isn't rape, it's called child molestation. At 15 no one would hire me, I couldn't sign myself back into school, and I didn't qualify for welfare. I also couldn't stay in the group home because I was pregnant. They have places now for pregnant teens but they didn't back then.

I'm sorry I am failing to see the connection between this and abortion. A 27 year old with a 15 year old is child molestation, if it was forced its rape no matter the age.

I am threading lightly here because I do not want to offend you and you do not have to answer if you dont want to but since you put it out there. Are you saying he raped you and you had your son? Not sure what you mean. Also this is someone you married so again I am not seeing the connection between this and abortion. Are you saying that you suffered and could have aborted but didnt? Can you clarify? Again, you dont have to.

Hey Split! Thanks for the rebuttal! What say you angel? Angel, you brought it up. Clarification would be a good thing.

Nope and nope, it is called rape! ( i hope he is hanging by his balls, right now! ) Oh, angel, you are younger than I am. They had it WHEN I needed it! They had so many options for me! I took them.

Angel, I apologize for that comment. I live in an area, where foster care, is a joke! I admire you for being a foster parent. You keep doing it! This has nothing to with abortions? Parents that abuse their babies, should have, had the balls to abort. ( wait, humans that abuse their babies, have no balls ) That is my utmost thoughts, on this subject! So are you still married to this guy?

My point was that a woman doesn't need to be raped to issues with the father. Many women have children from abusive relationships and still choose to care for their children.

Ok you are correct but this is a different issue. You are arguing that a woman who is raped by a man she does not love or even know should be forced to keep a child she does not want. In your case, yes an abusive relationship, there was a relationship,I am assuming love. Whether it was underage love with an adult, the scenario is different. During that time I can only assume you loved and cared for the man and wanted to have the child. I have no idea, Yes it is considered child molestation but the scenario is different.

Okay angel, totally confused now. Are you saying, it is okay to stay with an abusive father, to take care of the children? Are you saying, you did not choose abortion and stayed with the guy that raped you at the age of 15? What are you saying?? All in all, what you seem to be defending, is a woman's choice? ( or should I say a child's choice ) With respect to you!!!

I understand that you can't force someone to love their children. I also understand that the concept of love may even be confusing or foreign. But loving your child does not depend on who the father is or what he does or thinks or believes. It depends on you. No is forcing anyone to take care of a baby they can not love. There are more humane ways of getting rid of a child without resorting to destroying his\hers life. Even animals are shown more respect than having their young ripped limb from limb from their mothers womb.

Whoa and back up angel! There are moms out there, that love and would die for their children. We are debating abortion! There are moms, that have been to hell and back for their babies!
It does not not depend on you! It depends on the support, one has, at the time! I am not understanding your story? Apologies, but it it is not adding up?
