What is your opinion on women who use abortion as birth control?

Question

My brother's ex had at least 3 abortions while they were together and I'm not sure about the actual count before they were together. But I think that waiting until the pt. that you are pg. is the wrong time to think about what to do about preventing pg. I think if you are mature enough to have sex, you should be mature enough to think about birth control before sex.


I am not judging those who have made the choice to have an abortion, I am asking about those who abuse it.

I am not only laying the blame at my brother's ex's feet, I feel he is as resposible as she is. I never meant to imply that I did. I agree that he should've gotten out of the relationship sooner. Now that he is, he has a healthy 2 yr old daughter w/ his current wife.

Answer 1

At first I wanted to say it's pretty horrible. But I paused for a second and thought about it. Really, I think it's up to her how she treats her own body. Every abortion is just going to hurt her more physicly but it's her, not me.

Personally, I would never date a woman who does this. Not because of the abortion itself, but because of the reflection upon her judgement and self esteem. In my opinion, it doesn't say a whole lot of positive things about here.

Answer 2

First of all let me say I'm sorry that you have been through that. That is a hurtful thing, and for them to tell you there's a baby then to say it has been aborted....that is terrible.

I think that they are cruel, especially if after the first abortion. A light bulb should go off in their heads. I'm not trying to pass judgment on anyone, that's not my place to do so. That would be wrong of me, judgement is reserved for God. I don't condone it, or agree with abortion. Because it's a human life at the point of conception. Three abortions are just too many. There was no birth control in the earlier periods of the world, but those people had their children. Since abortion has become available some do try to use it as a form of birth contol. At that point it's really too late, there's a baby that has been created with a beating heart.

I'm a mother to three girls. My youngest is 22 months....My daughter's father tried to talk me into having an abortion. I couldn't do that...I am saved, and I love all my children. I was scared because I knew I would have to raise another child alone. My oldest two are 12, and 7. I've already raised them alone, and wasn't up for the idea again. I found my strength in God...he should have been supportive and that's what I was looking for, instead he was talking of an abortion. Now I'm raising three girls alone, but I love them dearly. The choice was between him and my child. I chose my child.

Answer 3

That's heinous. I'd never personally abort my baby, but I wouldn't judge another girl if she slipped up and felt she needed to do so because I'm sure she'd have her reasons and it's not my place to judge...however...three times??? That's just being irresponsible to have 3 unwanted pregnancies in the first place. It's called taking the pill and wrapping the tool. The first time should be a wake-up call...and OMYGOD YES birth control should be the FIRST thing you think about before you even get naked.

Some people are idiots. Barbaric idiots. "Uh-oh, I made a boo-boo. Better destroy the evidence...I mean, child."

Answer 4

I am sorry but this person has poor judgement. To make a mistake once is understandable. ( I personally could never have an abortion). But to continue to do this is wrong. A embryo has a heart beat that shows up on an ultrasound (transvaginal) at six weeks. There are too many other options out there for this to even be a reasonable choice.

Answer 5

Using abortion as birth control is inexcusable. After the first one, she should have thought of some other sort of birth control. There are so many choices out there, and a lot of them aren't every day. Maybe you could talk to your brother about your concern and give him a Planned Parenthood pamphlet. She could get an IUD, a shot, patch, pill, etc. Also, she didn't get pregnant by herself, so maybe your brother can think about what he can do. Childbirth is very hard on your body, so I can only imagine the trauma to her body after multiple abortions.

Answer 6

seventy 5% of girls people who've abortions have in no way had a million till now. 25% would not even say how conventional. the lady would have had one while she replaced into 19, long previous on had teenagers later and have been given yet another abortion at 40 5 after raising toddlers. in case you do in comparison to abortion in basic terms don't get one. Its that easy. Bullshit they're lumped mutually. study the textual content cloth lower back. Its 20% of the 25% have had greater desirable than 2. it may say 40 5% have had greater desirable than one abortion and out of this 40 5% 20% have had greater desirable than 2. Sorry you the two could stop intentionally mendacity or re study ok i replaced into incorrect. i did no longer study your link, I study your textual content cloth that wasn't very sparkling. the two way I nevertheless do no longer care and isn't any longer changing my opinion on abortion. those information do no longer tell the great tale with reference to the girls people who have been given them. and that i'm no longer one to choose. It would not subject me interior the slightest although by using fact i understand out of those woman who've had greater desirable than a million that maximum folk of them is unlikely in all that usually. blunders happen, beginning administration fails, financial status adjustments, well being hazards happen and for all those that do use it as beginning administration, oh nicely its them no longer me who has to bypass for the duration of the annoying adventure of what an abortion is.

Answer 7

I can't help but notice that your brother is getting off easy here! HELLO!! What was he doing about birth control!?! After paying for one (probably very expensive) abortion didn't it occur to him to make a few changes? THREE is ridiculous!

I am Pro-Choice. I think that this woman is one of the reasons why we have had to fight for this right. I have been fortunate...I have never had to make this decision. But...Why would you choose a majorly intrusive procedure over popping a pill once a day!?

Now he knows better. No excuses next time!!

Answer 8

I think it's wrong! But I also believe in God and know the risks of having sex. When people were created sex wasn't what it is today. It was something sacred that was only used to produce children. That's why we have sex, that's why men have a penis and we have a vagina. I believe that woman should be visited by a spirit..........lol. I understand that there is a need for abortion in some cases. Maybe you will die, maybe there's something wrong, maybe you've been raped or violated. Every situation is different and every person is different. Think about all the people that want babies and can't have them because of medical issues? I'm 27 weeks pregnant with a boy. I would think the father of this baby would want to be involved with his son, wat him to cary his last name and his genes. I've met men that would let you cut off there balls to give them a son that shares DNA. People in this world don't care anymore. They just hav no sense of right and wrong. Your brother should have gotten out of that relationship earlier. Best of luck to him!

Answer 9

That is exactly the kind of abortion I am against. I can understand it in cases of rape or serious health threats.

But as a form of birth control I think the term "freedom of choice" is a total misnomer. When a woman decides to have sex (using birth control or not) she's made here choice - choice is over, now it's time to be responsible for that decision.

Answer 10

I personally would never have an abortion and the fact she already killed 3+ babies is awful. She seriously needs to get on some long term birth control.
