That would be my point as well. I think, no matter what your situation, any life deserves a chance. You don't know what your child will grow up to be, no. You don't know if he'll be happy, succesful, a bum, an abusive alcoholic. No one can make you what you are. Did I become a serial killer just because I got slapped around as a kid and a teenager? No. I grew up thinking I want to help people like me, and I think I can make a difference in this world.

And I will.

I think it's utterly selfish to put your wants and needs before that of an unborn. Everyone, EVERYONE deserves a chance, and I don't think it's for anyone to decide to take that away. How would you feel if you had your chances taken away because someone deemed it better because oh, well, it's not a good time for me right now. And you might not turn out so well, so I'll just squish you out of existance. And the saddest thing is when you do that to an unborn child, they'll never even realize it. Which I don't think is humane: I think it's horrible cruel.

I'd say: take responsibility. No, you don't have to raise the child. Yes, there is adoption. You're not just throwing it to a stranger. The parent can make full decisions with the future parents, get to know them, even stay in contact and still be a part of the child's family. Don't be cold and heartless. There are so many good things in this world. Give a person a chance to experience them.



Again, just my opinion. I respect other people's, just as I hope mine is respected too.
