I have done that, I am not 100% sure what my feelings are, but my best friend had one, and I took her there, and brought her home, and held her hand.......it something you have to do for a friend.

Absolutely. If it's your friend contemplating an abortion, that's her decision and you should fully support her in every way you can. Perhaps she knows your viewpoint, perhaps she doesn't, if you are against it then if you are ever in a situation then you won't be doing the such. However each person must live and make decisions that they feel is right for them, and at that time, and you should support her decision without trying to change her mind, or mess with her head, or tell her she's doing something wrong because you don't agree with her.
If you are a friend you'll be nothing but supportive regardless of her decision.

Now that is really a tough question. No, I wouldn't suppress my feelings on it. Perhaps it could save her from having to go through another abortion.

YES, else you would not be a friend. you have to understand that you may not see eye to eye on everything, but if u r a friend you would still support her no matter her choice. that's what friend's do. now if you feel so strongly against abortion and would not want to see your friend kill her baby then you could "suggest" in a very sensitive and supportive way adoption. you could get pamphlets and what not to show her and alternative method rather then death of a fetus.
But in the end its her body and her choice. True friends stand by each other through thick and thin..

Abortion invokes strong feelings in many people as does war. I don't support the war yet I will celebrate the hero's from it.
With abortion I don't support it and asked my opinion will give it. However if a friend decides it is necessary for them I will give them the support she needs after the deed is complete. I will not support the deed but be there for her after she had it done. She is still alive and deserves a second chance and also forgiveness.

If I were against it then yes, I'd keep my opinions to myself. The last thing a person going through the emotions and such after an abortion is a friend to preach at them for having made the 'wrong' decision. A true friend would be there for you no matter what decision you made and help you get through the aftermath.

I personally would support my friend without suppressing my feelings. I would never be pushy and obnoxious enough to make a Friend feel bad about a decision that is already very difficult to make. Whether my friends choose as I would, I still support them and help them to make the best of their life situations.

If she was a really great friend then I would explain to her how I felt, but at the end of the day I would stand by whatever decision she made because thats what friends do.
And your own opinion isn't necessarily right. I don't agree with abortions, I could never have one. I think they are cruel and rotten and selfish (unless of course the woman has been raped) but if my friend got herself into that situation, at the end of the day it is her body and she can do with it what she wishes.
This has been an argument for years.
Support her, or you may lose her, someone going through something like this needs you.

Unless you have ever been faced with the issue I don't believe your opinion on Abortion matters anyway.
As a friend you should understand that you've never had to make a decision like the one she is being forced to make.
Don't judge her support her in anything she decides.
But that's just what a friend who is capable of rational thought should do. As a christian you should probly make her feel guilty for even considering it. Maybe a few bible verses and a condemnation to HELL!!!
Thanks SKY DADDY

that is merely her decision. you could no longer attempt to impact it, yet fairly know her id and private ideals interior a similar way that she with any luck respects yours. finally, no person is going to improve that infant for her yet herself. If she isn't arranged for this, she would be able to make a sparkling and all the way down to earth decision independently of what every physique says. She does no longer abort if "deep down" she needed the infant. in case you experience you won't be able to be there for her considering that is merely too a lot against your ethical ideals, then do your maximum suitable to softly tell her or ward off the area on a similar time as finding her a secondary and equivalent source of help. otherwise, positioned your judgment aside and be a chum to her whilst she desires it. stable acquaintances in existence are complicated to discover, we ought to continually no longer unfastened them over politics or moralistic variations.

I don't have to suppress any negative feeling about abortion, because I have none. I strongly support a woman's right to choose.
