Quiet Storm Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 In my case, the guys I dated were attracted to the fact that I had young children. The fact that you see that as a good thing is scary. 7 Link to post Share on other sites
NoIDidn't Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Okay you lost me. You agree with my son? What did my son say? I think you may have responded to my post without actually reading it. Oh, sorry. Your post actually said "IF" one of your adult sons were to say that. So it must be that WE agree. Better? Link to post Share on other sites

If someone really loves you, they will love your children also. Kareena, I hope you have your baby and I know that an abortion would be a very big mistake. Ending a life will be something that you might regret for the rest of your life...it's not just "your" life, there is a baby's life involved too. Yuck, yuck, yuck, and even more yuck. Sounds very disturbing if for no other fact that I know many friends that were molested by their mother's boyfriends - who also loved the fact that their mothers had young children. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

SoxPrincess Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Kareena, I've not posted on this thread yet but have kept up with it & wanted to offer my support to you. I think it was VERY strong of you to realize that at the current time you're unable to properly care for a child & VERY strong to know that you wouldn't be able to follow through if you decided on adoption. Both of those things, combined with talking to a professional, are extremely commendable. I had an abortion when I was 19. There were a million reasons why I made the decision I did (young, not financially stable in any sense of the word, no support at the time from family or friends...the list goes on) & while it is an extraordinarily difficult choice to make, I am of the mind it is much more respectable than bringing a child into the world that you cannot take care of. I now have 2 beautiful daughters and there are times I wonder how things would be if they had an older sibling but deep down inside, I know I made the best choice I could with what I had at the time. You'll go through many different emotions in the days, weeks, months and years to come; that I can guarantee. Don't EVER let anyone make you feel bad for making the choice that you have. People tend to get all high & mighty, trying to pour their morals into you, which sure, everyone has the right to their own opinion but the bottom line is...your body..your choice. I wish you all the best & please feel free to PM me if you ever need someone to talk to. I've been there & I truly understand. (((hugs))) Link to post Share on other sites
