YOUR BODY, YOUR MIND, YOUR CHOICE.
Abortions are very common. NEVER LET ANYONE ELSE MAKE UP YOUR MIND FOR YOU. If neither you nor your boyfriend are ready to bring a living thing into this world.. then DON'T!! And whether you do or don't decide to get an abortion ... make a trip to your local Planned Parenthood.. they have FREE condoms! ;]

There are only two reasons when getting an abortion would be justified:
1. When a girl has been raped; and
2. When it can be said with absolute certainty (which is still not possible in medicine today) that a child will be born stillborn. In this case, saving the mother the pain of bearing and giving birth to a stillborn child would be worth it. But as I've said, today's medical world does not yet have the capability to predict a stillborn child.
Any reason other than the above is complete nonsense. And sorry to say but there is no such thing as "accidentally getting pregnant". If you are mature enough to be having sex, you should both be mature enough to take All the appropriate precautions. I have zero respect for people who play with fire, get pregnant and then take the easy way out - abortion. Neither you or anyone else has the choice of whether to save a life or not. It is not in your hands. I consider anyone who is brave enough to have unprotected sex but not brave enough to deal with the consequences as an absolute COWARD!

It doesn't matter how the baby was conceived. An abortion is a personal choice. If you're not ready for a child explore your options but this is not the only option you have, certainly. Take your time and think it through. Don't rush and regret your decision. Abortions are common for people for a variety of reasons. It's never a simple decision, perhaps they hardest you will ever have to make because it concerns a human life.

Yes, it's common. No, I would not have one. It's simply cruel, in my opinion. If people are bold enough to have sex without or even with contraceptives, they should be bold enough to consider pregnancy and accept their own baby (if "bold" is even the right word). But it happens, and if you and your partner honestly both feel that you DONT want the baby, then it really is your decision. I would never have an abortion, but I would never take away a woman's right to have one. At least try to have the baby and put it up for adoption. And it seems as if the main reason for that is because they're scared to tell their parents, or because they have too much going on for them at the moment to be able to handle it (literally). And I'd just like to add that it's interesting, the way you put your question: "if your boyfriend accidentally impregnate you..." as if it was his wrong-doing. Lol.

I would say it is very common, but not neccasarily right, but that is just my beliefs, abortion is a very hard decision and may haunt you and your b/f later, my mother had an abortion at a young age, her b/f from the time later found her and it stirred up some very bad feelings and wasnt good for me or my siblings, if you are both willing to take care of the child then you should not get an abortion and if you have any doubt about it at all, dont even continue to considere it

No, I would never pay someone to kill my own child. If you are considering an abortion, please take a look at this information before you do something you may regret the rest of your life:

WOW I guess if you look long enough you find all sorts of questions. First off I'm 32 years old and don't have children yet and have wanted at least one since I was 19 so if my girl friend or wife were pregnant with MY flesh and blood would I let her do that my answer "Hell NO" there are SO many couples that want children that cant have them. And if you are someone or if you know someone who doesn't want children then they shouldn't engage in "human contact" meaning the art of making love . Last but not least almost All religions believe in the 10 Commandments one of them is " Thy shall not kill " there is a human life in that womb. PS ... I understand everyone is entitled to their opinion but I pray for your change of heart.

No you don't HAVE to get an abortion, if anything give the baby up for adoption.

depends in which country you are
but it takes two to have these kind of accidents,
and you cant just go arround with this kind of callous attitude
how accidental was it
were you making lunch and he walked into you whilst he was reading the paper maybe
or were you actually thinking about each others bodies
the mind boggles.

It is impossible to accidentally impregnate someone. There is rape, and there is choice. Where does the accident come in?
