You need to ask yourself a serious question here. Is ____ important enough?
I don't know your situation, I don't know how old you are, if your parents are pushing you, how much money you make, who the father is, but one thing is obvious according to your post.

You want to keep the baby, yet you feel compelled because of ____ to abort.

No matter what you do, this is a decision that will effect the rest of your life.
If you do abort the baby you're going to have to deal with the *guilt* because somewhere in the back of your mind you're going to think you killed someone.

If you keep the baby, you're going to have a life altering experience. You're going to discover what it's like to *really* love someone. You're going to start thinking of someone else more than you think of yourself, at least that's the way it is for me. You're also going to give up a lot, like being able to 'just leave' the house without thinking about it. You're going to start thinking about things like daycare, and where are the freaking socks for this kid. Having a kid is a major responsibility. This is someone's life.

You could give your child up for adoption, this is great, and sucks at the same time. There are lots of people who can't have kids, and they would love to raise a child. Some day, you're looking at the chance of your child showing up and asking why ... but personally I think this is a better option than abortion.

If your child was a result of rape, or incest you really need to think this one through, talk to your parents about it, and if one of them are involved with bringing this baby into the world, you need to talk to someone you trust. Here's the messed up thing. If you got to a pastor you're going to get a "keep the baby" message, and if you go to a social worker of some sort it always seems like they are going to push "abort the baby." Just think really hard and long about this one.

Last but not least... if you're concerned about bad genetics - heart disease, mental disorder - from you or your partner getting passed on, you should have the baby. Bad genetics or not, you want this child.

why? If u already love this child then you shouldn't have it aborted. If you TRULY cannot take care of it if u have no family or there is a healrisk I understand...but truly think about it. Abortion is not your only option...

If you WANT to keep it, don't abort it, you will regret it for the rest of your life.
Abortion is a hard thing to go through especially if you don't want to do it.

I know a girl that was adopted. When she finally looked up her birth parents she found out that they had tried to abort her too late and that it resulted in her being prematurely born or some chaotic weirdness that actually ended up saving her life. She was so depressed afterwards. Knowing that she could have missed all of the romances and best friends and greatest moments in her life really took a piece out of her. She hasn't completely been the same since and if she had heard you say that she would have went into hysterics.

I, too am going to have an abortion. Next Wednesday. It isn't easy, but sometimes you need to just do what is right for you. However, you said that you want to keep it..then why abort?

if you want it, yet you are giving it up... you are the PRIME reason why so many people are against abortion... people like you that abuse it then waste tax dollars on rehab afterwards because you regreat it. do the world a favor... BIRTH CONTROL pills if you intend on doing sensless things like this
