Abortion questions?

Question

Do you think abortion questions belong in this section? I mean I understand that it has to do with being pregnant, but shouldn't it be in another section, or maybe they can have an abortion category. Most us us in this section or either pregnant, trying to get pregnant or have given birth and it's sad when you are trying to get pregnant, especially if you have been trying for a long time, and have to read about all those who are trying to get rid of theirs. Regardless of your view on abortion, I feel people have a right to ask their questions regarding it, but I just don't think this is the appropriate section. What are your thought on this?

I am pro-life and agree with those of you who say it's murder. However because it's legal, I didn't think it would be possible to try and control people's asking questions about it alltogether.

Answer 1

yes i agree that this is not an appropriate section for these types of questions. i think women's health would be more appropriate and if these people just stopped for a second and used their God-given brain they would see that this would be the only accurate option to choose.

then again, if these people stopped for a second and used their God-given brains at all, they would see, that possibly, just maybe, abortion would be the inaccurate option to choose.

Things happen for a reason. whether or not we understand the reasoning behind each event does not matter. trusting nature, God or whatever you hold in high regard, including trusting yourself, should be proof enough.

We are people who should be held accountable for our actions. and since every action has a reaction, we are also responsible for that.

lastly, people who are trying to conceive or have just given birth or who have decided to keep their babies and deal with their situation, are the absolute last people on earth who want to hear the sob stories of those who refuse to take responsibility and accountability for their actions; and this includes those who are raped and do not seek immediate medical care.

Answer 2

I agree with Amanda, how does someon else wanting to have an abortion have anything to do with anyone else's pregnancy. I'm 16 weeks pregnant and although I don't agree with abortion, other people have different views. I do hate seeing people use abortion as an excuse b/c they weren't using protection or any type of BC but when they have a question about it, if you are pro-choice then why do you reply to the question...people are looking for positive feedback even if its on a topic that we don't lilke. It's really just a waste of an answer....abortion is always going to be under pregnancy unless they make a spot for it and there's nothing that can be done about it.

Answer 3

It's own section. I am not sure that I would want to encourage it! I personally believe (as you do) that abortion is murder. I know so many couples who are unable to have children, but would love to be parents, and it breaks my heart to hear these calloused people tell teenaged girls "oh, just abort so you don't mess up the rest of your life". Why aren't they saying "just ADOPT so that you don't mess up the rest of your life?" It's so sad, so sad to see such a huge segment of our population declare that taking an innocent life is acceptable and normal and a "better" alternative.

I know that I always answer abortion questions and then post the following two sites:

Answer 4

They *sort of* belong in this section. People who have abortions are (for a short time, anyway) pregnant. I don't think the people who ask abortion questions simply to start fights and stir up trouble should be allowed to post here though.

Besides--where else could you put the questions re: abortion?

Answer 5

if this section is labeled "parenting", then NO. logically it is for people who are growing & caring for children and not for people who are killing children.

If this section is labeled "pregnancy" then "YES" because these thoughts are included when a woman is pregnant. Perhaps there is some help to be given.

if the killers are parents and want to know the effects on the family, mind,religion, etc. before they murder a child, then perhaps others can give some suggestions.

i am open to the subject (when i feel like discussing it) because i understand there are both sides of the story. my teaching tells me that you just don't kill anyone...if you play, you pay...if you live like an adult, then you should stand up to the responsiblity no matter how old you are...God knows us even before we are born, so obviously we are human at any stage and deserve a chance to live...you should have thought about the effects of "ruining" your life before you laid down.

on the other hand, i am taught that if you have a choice of your life and the life of your child for medical reasons or some other drastic thing, then feel free to choose. you may choose to give your life for your child or to kill the child so that you can live. for some moms, there is no choice. they choose to make sure their child stays alive.

bottom line, please take your blood plans to another forum. there are people who are trying to be constructive here. if you feel you need an outlet, then get a subject line going for "baby killing" if that is all you are looking to achieve...
stay away from the one called pregnacy AND parenting. the subject is not needed here.

Answer 6

I don't see how another woman's abortion affects your pregnancy/desire for pregnancy at all.

That said, a separate "abortion" category would be good. Though I hate when someone asks about abortion, pro-life extremists go off on a "OMGbabyKILLER!!!1!" rampage. That wasn't the question. Shut up, move on.

So I imagine the section would fire me up quite a bit, lol.

Answer 7

Abortion is sick and wrong. You took the chance, therefore you deal with the 9 months of carrying a child that YOU brought in this world. Once the baby is born give it up for adoption or even leave it at the hospital, they will take it, NO QUESTIONS ASKED.

There shouldnt even be abortion discussed on here.

It would be like having a section on here asking people the right way to go about murdering someone.

Good luck in your endeavor of having a child. I wish you the best. :)

Answer 8

well somtimes women want somebody's advice from somebody they don't know, and know they will never meet. it's very scary to talk to somebody face to face about abortion. believe me i know. these women don't mean to bring the rest of us down, they're just looking for sum help at this stressful time in their lives. u never know why a woman has to get an abortion, that's their business. i think we should just try to help them and if we can, talk them out of it. but in a way that's respectful. it's not nice to call them murderers. they're just trying to do what they think is right. we shouldn't judge them

Answer 9

Maybe something as sensitive as abortion shouldn't be allowed on the site. It just makes everyone mad.

Answer 10

I agree with you 100%! Is there someway we can let Y!answers know that we would like it to be in a seperate category?
