Question

here is a great site to help people understand abortion and the toll it takes on people www.teenbreaks.com do you know that almost all the people that have abortions regret it? that when they talk to the doctor he doesnt even try to share other options with them and why should he? he is there for the money and once the operation is finished it is no longer his problem.did you know that after the operation patiens suffer from extream self hate, deppresion, and thoughts of suicide just to name a few?..you will even find docs on the site that quit the practise cause it was so stressful?..they (the docs & even the patiens themseves) admit that it is killing a human child! how can we continue to claim that it is right and only tissue when the people that have been through it and practised it admit that its wrong? there is something wrong in the world today when you can't disipline a child but you can kill one!.pls read what i have said and look at the site then tell me what you think.

i know most people say to keep your nose in your won business but im just stating this becasue people need to be made aware of what abortion truly means and by not knowing the unborn babies and the mothers emotional sate are the ones to pay the price... i do not say any of this out of hate or stupidity only love and concern for those with out a voice...childern need or love and protection...even before they are born...love daisy

Answer 1

Thanks for speaking out and for the information...

It's funny how a secular Life Span Development text book defines Life as "Patterns of change, involving growth and decline beginning AT CONCEPTION (NOT BIRTH) and continuing through the human life span."

This is NOT a religious text book. Funny how the definition of LIFE includes conception... that so called clump of cells that everyone seems to think isn't alive is in the definition of LIFE...

Answer 2

Well, abortion is obviously a HUGE issue today. Everyone who posts these questions get some sort of hateful feedback. From your question, I see you are probably against... but you also have the open mind to hear what others think... Awesome. I looked at the site, and the other day in church we talked about this. I actually think that it's up to other people whether they want to or not, because I feel that it's their choice. I just wouldn;t do it myself, because I know i couldn't live with myself afterwards. I also have a LOT going on in my life right now, and I know I could NOT support a child, if by some freak occurence I got pregnant, I would feel ljoyed to have abortion as an option, but probably wouldn't because of how it would make me feel. And if by some other freak thing I couldn't get pregnant again... later on, I'd hate myself forever. And, if I did get pregnant later on and had the child and I realized how I stole life from another, you never know, I may resent the child or something, so, it's a huge decision... and I don't think I could do it. But I am definitely all for having the option. So, thus... Pro-Coice.... Well, I'd like to say more, but I wish to not bore you further... Good luck with this question!!!

Answer 3

"do you know that almost all the people that have abortions regret it?"

Most of Japan is actually just fine with it... if you go for plan B here a doctor's first reaction is to tell you to wait and see, and the they can just give you an abortion if you actually get pregnant.

What you're describing is the reaction of people socially (not naturally) conditioned to view their actions that way. And yes, if you view it as a human being and not a thumbnail of cells, then it can be traumatic and you probably shouldn't have one.

Edit: It's very easy to say "If I was raped, I wouldn't have an abortion" if you haven't been raped and left pregnant. Try not to be too judgemental of people who may not be strong enough emotionally to handle something that you seem to think would be a walk in the park. It's not as simple as "Oh, you'll love the baby anyways".... because really, you're just as likely to despise it as a reminder of trauma.

Answer 4

What is amazing is according to you it is the doctor that forces the abortion on the person.

What happens when you take abortion away? Suicide, women that want abortions sometimes kill themselves trying to get rid of the child.

Abortion won't go away simply because you make it illegal. It is a foolish idea to even contemplate. People who want it will just fine other ways. A fetus is far too fragile. Miscarriages aren't that hard to create. They might kill the mother, but what do you care. You are on a false crusade.

If you want abortion to go away, then come up with a way to make sure every single person and child will be taken care of. That is not possible in this society at this time.

Answer 5

well, the thin is that a lot of the people who have abortion are at a point in their life where they can't afford, care for, or raise a child. Most doctors DON'T say that it is killing a child. Look the way I see it is, if I got a girl pregnant I would be man enough to accept the responsibility, but not all men are like me. A lot of guys are irresponsible, and leave the woman to raise the kid for themselves. I am not judging these single mothers... they deserve praise for doing what they do. I think we as a society should help people who need the help. However there are people who are against abortion, and at the same time they are against paying for free health care, welfare, after school programs, school lunch or food stamps. I also never see anti abortion people adopting kids, if they do god bless them, but if anyone is so anti abortion, then how about adopting a couple of kids? Look I don't judge you for your beliefs, in fact I understand them, but I don't feel it is my placwe to condemn, to reject or to push away women who decide that the best for them is to have an abortion. They have their reasons. Not every case is the same, and if they will be judged in another life, it won't be by me.

Answer 6

Some people like to spout about how women who have undergone an abortion experience self loathing, guilt and thoughts of suicide. I had an abortion. Do I loath myself, or have I entertained thoughts of suicide? No. I haven't. Was the abortion procedure a horrendous, agonising experience that left me needing emergency surgery? No. I took some pills, and the next day I started a painless 'period'. Having an abortion has enabled me to complete my education (I have a masters degree and a science PhD before I was 30), safe in the knowledge that when I do choose to have children, I will be financially and emotionally secure and able to provide for them. I feel no guilt or shame. All women should have the right to inexpensive, effective contraception. If that contraception fails, as it might in ~3% of cases, women should have the right to a timely, safe abortion. Having observed some of the self-righteous comments appearing on this site regarding abortion, I feel a need to redress the balance and provide an objective view of what abortion feels like for the woman concerned.

Answer 7

I have mixed views on abortion

I think that there are enough kids in this world who don't have parents who can and need to be adopted. If a person can't take care of a child than they shouldn't have it, don't give it away, that just creates more of those kids that don't have parents.

Some people can deal with having an abortion, I've known plenty that are glad they did it and don't regret it because it would've ruined their life. I know a person now who is going to give up her 8 year-old son because he can't be controlled. Everyone is different.

Why bring a child into a world that is overpopulated as is - why not adopt what is out there?

We are slowly killing our world and we need to do something about it.

Answer 8

I believe in the right to choose. It is the parent(s) right to choose what to do about a pregnancy. There are more reasons than an unwanted child for abortion. What if a pregnancy will kill mother or child or even both. The same goes for adoption. Kids have been given up for adoption because the mother and/or father could not take care of them.
When abortion was illegal women still had them. There were a lot of injuries and poor medical care. Women died at times.

Answer 10

Some women do feel the way you have listed and some are happy with the decision to abort that they have made. Everyones situation is different and we live in a country where we have choice and freedom and you will NEVER see everyone on the same side of this issue. You can't speak for everyone but your point of view should be respected because you do deserve to be heard; as do the people who do not share your views..

Answer 11

OUCH!! What a question!!

I do not need to visit any website to tell me the horrors, stresses, in’s & out’s of abortion… I have been there and lost a child!!

What a contentious issue and subject to discuss… there are 1000000001 arguments on all sides, with all believing that they are right!!

I am a Christian, have been for 20+ years: therefore I have to believe that abortion is wrong, and that ‘ALL’ life is precious: no matter how young!! And this is a belief I have carried ‘ALL’ my life… not just as a Christian!!

Abortion for ‘Convenience’… wrong guy… work… fashion… figure… etc, etc, etc is arguable: and in my eyes very wrong!!

BUT!!

Who am I to tell a 13 year old girl, who has been severely beaten, cut, threatened with death, and raped in any and every way possible… to then find out she is pregnant from the attack: that she can not have an abortion?

I praise you wholly, that you say if you were raped and found yourself pregnant from the attack, that you would keep the baby… as it was not the babies fault: and it did not ask to be conceived!! If you can say this… and ‘MEAN’ it… then you are a woman to be praised!!

But how can you… until you have been through that ATACK!!

Not all women/girls are as strong hearted: or as determined as you make yourself out to sound. And as you have already said… Counselling: Support: and help in these areas are severely lacking in some cases!! And the baby would be a constant reminder for ‘9’ months +, through no fault of its own… of what happened!!

I wont for obvious reasons go into any detail… but I know for a FACT… my ex-girlfriend would have taken her own life after her rape: if she had found out she had been pregnant from it… let alone told ‘Not’ to have an abortion!!

But here we have only talked about those who have been abused or raped!! What about those who find their baby will be born with sever Mental, Physical, or BOTH disabilities??

Another ex-girlfriend of mine suffered from sever ‘Acne’ of all things… Bloody bad spots!! For this the doctor put her on medication: medication that she was told under ‘No Circumstances’ to try to conceive whilst still taking: as it would cause the child to be born with sever physical, mental disabilities, and disfigurement!!

After an accident on our ‘First’ sexual experience together… (the condom burst)… she found herself to be ‘Pregnant’… to cut a long story very short… this was the end of our relationship… and the end of the pregnancy: I had no say in the matter of either!!

This is a MINE FIELD subject: and one, which will be argued about until the end of time: with all sides believing that they are RIGHT!! But until you have been put in that position of making that final decision… who can say what was right or wrong? I thank Christ I am a man, and will never be put in that position personally… as I really do not know what I would do… as what I feel I would want to do…and what I would do: would cause a sever conflict!!!

God bless you all!!
