So I just repsonded to the question about being 12 and pregnant. OK, I missed the part about the difference between stating she was 12 and 16 minutes earlier.
Anyway, who really cares?
The point is, people got VERY judgmental. And I've known twelve-year old girls, or, usually, friends or cousins of them,
who were RAPED at twelve?
Where is compassion?
Where is the ability to say- hey, I don't know all of the facts here?
I am not even properly Christian, but I feel like there are many people who would say they are, who come out with very nasty things!
Who actually thinks about these things?

I totally agree with you. Look at all the judgements whenever an abortion question is asked. Inevitably 80% of the people will say "use protection or don't have sex". Well guess what? I did use protection and *still* got pregnant, so I guess birth control isn't the only answer (I'm happily pregnant now). Anyway...yes, people are ridiculously judgemental on here sometimes.

I think her question actually got deleted. Unless I am missing something. I agree with you that people should try not to be judgmental about other's situations. But the problem I have with her questions is that not one of them matches the others, so I would logically assume one or all of them are made up. In one she's pregnant, in the other her boyfriend won't answer the phone, in the other her boyfriend's mother won't answer the phone because she's mad that she's pregnant (at 16), and in the other, he's not even her boyfriend because he has another girlfriend. It seems like a misuse of Yahoo answers to me. People come on looking for and sharing knowledge, and I tried to give her a helpful and truthful answer. I mean, I don't really care if people come on here and ask silly questions, but if they do, they should expect silly answers.

The question was deleted when I tried to read it. I completely agree with you. So many people jump to conclusions and are very judgemental. Before posting things, please really needs to take into account the situation that person is in and try to relate to it. For instance, I posted a question yesterday asking when I would start to show (I am 5 weeks pregnant) Some random guy posted "Your baby is dead, have a nice day" I just thought to myself how rude and inconsiderate. Some people really do not have a heart and do not care what they say to others.

She may be pregnant and she may not be, she could just be trolling. I simply asked how old she really was? I am not going to take her seriously until she takes asking a question seriously. If she wants our advice than she needs to at least seem genuine and honest and she has not accomplished this. Many people abuse this site, so why should I waste mt advice on someone who cannot even get their story straight.

I tried to find the question you were talking about, but I couldn't. I don't know why people judge others. Usually it is an attempt to validate themselves by saying "At least I'm not like that."
All you can do is try and be nice to people and try not to judge yourself.

most people state if their pregnancy was because of a rape. especially if they are asking for or need help because it's background info. i guess if that person doe not want to give all the proper information, then they should be prepared for what answers they might get.

Thank You. Thats what I was thinking. Besides who says she is the only one posting on her account? People can be so brutal.
