Should she have it?

Question

She is 20 yrs. old, paralyzed from the waist down(the result of a car accident she caused), recovered from a meth addiction, no job, very little education, not very motivated to get her life in order.... and she just found out she's pregnant - from a guy that is a loser and doesn't want anything to do with her anymore.
She lives with her dad and gets social security and state medical insurance. He (her dad) doesn't want to deal with raising a baby as well as facing dealing with her during pregnancy (she may face TOTAL bedrest...for at least 5 months!!) She could go live with her mother but they don't get along - and she has only lived on her own (ie; her own apartment) for one month of her life.
Should she have it?

Answer 1

Yes. Who are we to play God. Abortion is wrong in EVERY case. There is NO acceptable reasons for abortion. And by the way "Scarlett Rose", We already know what you would do, you are a cold blooded serial killer.

Answer 2

Well...since she's already pregnant, of course she should have it, that's the only way for 'it' to get out of her body without having to be killed first! Adoption is a loving option, although, if she is as irresponsible and selfish as you have made it sound, she may not see it that way. She may think a baby is a cool 'thing' to have to love her. Remind her how much work a baby takes, that her partying days would be way over, that all her money would now go to diapers and clothes and food....she's made a hard road for herself and everyone else. At least if she places this baby for adoption he will get to live and get a family better equipped to raise him. She can handpick the family in a private adoption, and lots of them have varying degrees of openness. Some private adoption agreements even allow the adoptive parents to help provide for pregnancy expenses if they so choose. Encourage her to go for this option, if she doesn't want to give up her partying and running around.

Answer 3

Does SHE have any say in it? There are yes and no points. Yes, as might make her more responsible for her actions, but no, in case nothing really changes and the child grows up to be a loser, with nothing to contribute to society.
That's a hard choice to make. I would never really condone an abortion just for the hell of it.
Maybe think about giving it up for adoption, I'm sure there would be a loving couple out there somewhere that could give that child a loving home.

Answer 4

She already HAS the baby. It's just small and hidden now. None of the circumstances of the mother's life are the baby's fault. The baby has done nothing to deserve death. She deserves her mother's love and protection. If the mother wants, she can place her child with a loving adoptive family. There are currently about 40 couples waiting to adopt every one infant who is available in this country.

Answer 5

why doesnt she give it up for adoption and give this precious gift living inside her a chance? so what if she doesnt have her life together? im guessing one of the million or so people who are looking to adopt a baby have it together and would kill for a chance for a baby. Having a baby is the single most precious gift someone can have.. and giving it to someone who cant have one could be the best thing you could have ever done for someone. It may even be a good enough reason to turn her life around.

yes.

Answer 6

God has plan for that baby, and maybe His plan is to help this girl turn her life around using the baby as motivation. Or maybe He plans for this baby to be adopted by a couple who has tried for years to get pregnant and will provide a wonderful loving home.

Answer 7

Despite having so many problems I think she should have it. A baby might be the one thing that she needs in this life to be happy. There's no guarantee that she'll get another chance and if she can have sex...then she should be mature enough to face the consequences of it. If its no danger to her life, she should go ahead and try to have the baby...it'll be something wonderful to love but she'll need help raising it.

Answer 8

i think that giving the baby up for adoption would be best and give a capable couple a chance to raise this child in a loving home. the child deserves a right to live.

Answer 10

Yes, she should have the baby (not "it") she should give the baby up for adoption. She does not sound fit to raise a child.
