is abortion right if you were 14?

Question

do you think it is acceptable if a 14 year old girl has an abortion because the boyfriend has said he doesnt want anything to do with it. should her mum persuade her to have one?

Answer 1

no its not. thats killing a baby. a 14 year old shouldnt b doing anything to be getting pregnant. its not tht babys fault their parents were stupid.

Answer 2

Some people are "for" abortions, some people are "against" abortions, but, how do you feel about it and at the age of 14, I don't think you are capable of making a logical decision. It's not up to me to tell you whether it's right or wrong. It's a personal choice. At 14 you might think you are ready to have a baby, but, you will need a lot of help because you made the choice to have the baby therefore you will no longer be able to enjoy your teen years whether your mom or other family members assist you in caring for the baby. If you decide to abort the baby, ask yourself how would you feel once it's done. No one can make you feel more guilty about your situation than you. Whatever your decision is you need to prepare yourself for the emotional consequences you will go through. Also, think about having the baby and then let someone adopt the baby. Your lesson learned should be stop having sex now that you know what can happen, listen to your mom because she knows a lot more than you think she does, more importantly get an education so you can be well informed on life's choices. You or whomever your question is concerning, choose to have sex and ignored the fact that the results could lead to getting pregnant. Consider the situation a lesson learned. Ask yourself this, if a grown woman gets pregnant and she is struggling with the same decision, what makes you or whomever you are speaking of think the situation is easy or other people can resolve your problem for you.

Answer 3

If the boyfriend says he doesnt want anything to do with the baby then let him be. No matter how much you feel you love him or how much pain or resentment you feel from him, You gotta stay strong and as healthy as possible. Age 14 is quite a young age to be messing around and getting pregnant but when you have sex, you know your consequences, wether you think about them or not. Every mistake has a consequence. Thats common sense. Wether youre 14 or 35, abortion is wrong either way. You have a living baby inside you from the begginning of conception. The best way is going full term and giving your baby up for adoption. The baby can have a life still, and be taken care of. Would you rather kill your OWN child or give it to someone you know it can be taken care of and have a good life. Abortion is murder...check these pictures at. www.mttu.com/abort-pics

Answer 4

If the doctor feels it is safe for her to carry a baby to term then she should . It is not the babies fault that his/her parents are children. Adoption is a much better option and perhaps more would be learned from the experience by going through a pregnancy/labor and seeing this is a human rather than thinking she can just "erase" the problem and possibly go on to repeat it again as she had no real consequences. There are so many people (including myself ) who would love to adopt and would be so happy to give a baby a loving home , a second mistake doesn't erase the first mistake. Sometimes lessons must be learned the hard way and if a child thinks she is old enought to have sex then she needs to learn other grown up things come with it ... like putting the needs of the life you created above your own , even if it is hard for you . Perhaps before she decides to become sexually active again she will take precautions thinking about what pregnancy/labor was like and not desiring to give up another baby (even if it was the right thing to do)
Also if mom pushes for abortion then when the 14 year old has heard time dealing with that emotionally she will see herself as a victim of her mean mom , rather than see that she made the mistakes to begin with.

Answer 5

Hi, well as other people have said abotion is a very personal thing. Some people agree and some do not. At the end of the day the decision has to come from the 14 year old, she is the one that will have to live with her decision. If her mum persaudes her then her mum is likely to get the blame maybe at a later date from her daughter. The mum should take a suportive role and point out not only the negative things of having a baby so young but also the possitive. Hope this helps....

Answer 6

It all depends on how you feel about having one. If you feel that a baby just isn't right for you right now then there are other options adoption is a great way to help out another family that cant have children. 14 is very young to have a baby and I myself am a young mother not that young but I'm 20 with a 16 month old daughter, my mother told me that abortion was an option that I should think about. I however didn't take that way I kept my baby. You are so young and you have alot of things you can do with you life. You have different ways you could go about it just don't forget that if you are against abortion don't let anyone make you, you could help out another family that wants that baby. I hope this helped

Answer 7

At 14 yrs old u r still going through stages where u need a mother, 2 b a mother 4 some1 else woud b really hard. U r not emotionally ready 4 this kind of challenge, especially without a father in the baby's life 2 at least help u through it. I would have an abortion if I were 14 too. Since u have made the choice 2 b sexually active u should protect urself there's alot more things u should protect urself from besides getting pregnant, like STDs.

Answer 8

Abortion is the medical term for murder of the unborn. In this case a 14 year old shouldn't have gotten pregnant, and the mother should persuade her to have her baby. If this is what her daughter wanted then she should learn the responsibilities of being a full-time, single parent. She needs to learn that babies aren't just cute little toys you play with and put to sleep, so it should teach her a lesson. Also, if the pressure is too much on the daughter and her family, the boyfriend should be active in the child's well-being.

Answer 9

I dont think it is acceptable for anyone to have an abortion even if rape was the case. If worse came to worse then yeah give the baby up after it is born. There are so many couples out there who cant have kids. But honestly if it was me weather I was 14 or 1 or even 16 I still would not have an abortion. But you make up your own mind just take the info into consideration. Good luck

Answer 10

i think in the situation of a pregnant 14 year old there are really only two realistic options
1) she has the baby and a mistake she made as a child ruins her life and keeps her from receiving the education she needs to make something of herself and she becomes destined to fast food or factories or her parents raise the child when they should be able to do other things in life they are saddled with a mistake their teenage daughter made or she gives it up for adoption and spends the rest of her life wondering where the child is and how it is doing and questioning her choice to give it up and probably trying to find the child
2) get an abortion if it were my daughter this is the choice i would hope she made and i would try to persuade her to do so a 14 year old is a child and children shouldn't have children sometimes being born into a situation like this is worse than being born at all subconsciously she will always blame the child for all she missed in life a stupid mistake shouldnt have lifelong consequences for a child this age but the issue of her having sex at this age really needs to be addressed

Answer 11

14 is too young to have a baby but you have to think about this. In my opinion abortion is murder. Your a murderer if you do. God has plans for this baby now and just because the 14 year old made a bad choice by having sex or not using a comdon is really not the baby's fault. Bring the baby into this world and if the girl can't take care of it which considering the girl is only 14...give the baby up for adortion but make sure your in the baby's life. Don't let the baby grow up and not know who their mother really is.
