Oh and by the way ..I was a teenager too sweetheart.I have been where you are..I know what "better" is for me.I wont pretend to say what is "better for you" ..Because Im grown.And I actually know what an ovum is.

You use your "wisdom" for your self..I'll use mine for myself.

Sad that the immature teenager knows better than the adult.

An old joke comes to mind: "my parents were so stupid when I was a teenager. It's strange how the older I get, the smarter they become."

All mothers and fathers make sacrifices everytime they have a child.

And yes I know people do have babies and give them up for adoption.My aunt did when she was 15.His name is Jeffrey and one of the sweetest people I have ever known.

I know what having a baby is in really really precarious situations.I had a baby at 14 years old for Christ sake.I was in the 8th grade.I wasnt even through growing yet.

I was a grandmother at 40.I have a 9 month old grandbaby by the son I had at 14.

And what does this prove?

I have also had abortions Dawny.So what am I ???A friggen moronic murderer? Or a brave and courageous person that didnt take the easy way out?

Oh I know..Im both.Im a schitzo!

Love

Dallas

In truth, I would have made different choices.

I don't doubt your bravery or courage and I wouldn't dare discount your pain and the emotions you experienced going through the ordeal. I'm not heartless.

The truth...had I been in my sister's position, I don't know what I would have done. I do question at times what type of person I would have been had I carried Connor in my womb and brought him into the world, knowing that he wouldn't thrive. I'm not sure what the "right" choice would have been.

What point are you trying to make? An older couple can give a baby up for adoption just as easily as a teenager can.

Adoption is not the safety net you make it out to be.

Sad that the immature teenager knows better than the adult.

Unsubstantiated claim.

 

[darkendless]

I'm sorry that you feel that way

Im sorry you cant turn the world into a fascist police state that panders to your single-minded moral dilemmas.

As it turns out, it's a very adolescent notion to think you know better than other people what's wise and good for them. Someday, you might look back and laugh at how you were today.

I actually know what a human being is.

I get the point, but I'd have to disagree. When we are young, we look to people that are older than us with awe because of their wisdom. As we get older, we realize their flaws, and in return, gain confidence in our intelligence.

The quote button isn't working..

Darkendless:
It is not controlling people. That is a complete misunderstanding against pro-life views. That is absolutely not our goal. We are saving lives, and that is our only goal here.

Saving lives is not always a good thing. Pro-life people will be the first to complain when we're outstripping the supply for food at an accelerated rate. Even now its concerning. All these people care about though is their petty little moral obligation that they do not fully understand.

I was not saying this at all. I was not saying that younger people are more intelligent or more mature than older people. I was saying that I, individually, know better than her, individually.
I know 10 year olds that are more mature than 40 year olds, and in contrast, I know tons of people my age that act like they are 5 90% of the time. I do not think in any way age determines maturity and I will never judge someone according to their age.

Yes, but aparently you haven't learned how to treat them yet.

Surely, you're not suggesting slaughter is an acceptable solution to food shortage?

 

[darkendless]

It will get to a point Mr Emu sir, i will not deny that. South America has already felt the pinch by accelerating their production of grain for alternative fuels. I don't think slaughter is a good idea. Abortion though can control this. I'd prefer correct family planning and contraception though at first.

You seem unaware of what your statement logically implied.
