There are millions of people like me, the chance of a child of foster care actually being a functioning member of society is less than 3%. I am pro choice from the unwanted babies point of view. Look at Manson and tell me abortion should not have been an option there....

I am sorry about your mother's choice in your case. I hope you have felt and done better as you've become an adult. I cannot say I know how you feel, because I cannot begin to imagine how you feel. Thanks for sharing your side and horrible experience.

Manson was the product of a prostitute and no father in his life. He was in and out of homes and different child care facilities his entire life. Mommy should have used birth control. It wasn't fair to him or you.

I've said it before, but, any asshole can make a baby, but, we need licenses to fish, drive, have a dog or cat, and so many more things! Unfortunately, one never knows what will happen when a female is pregnant. I decided as a teenager I didn't want the responsibility of another life and birth control has worked all my life. Some people find it inconvenient. Some people think it won't happen to them. I think alot don't think at all.

I still have the maternal instincts with my nieces, nephew, great niece and great nephew and when they're in my care, they're not out of my sight for a second when they are babies and toddlers.

The way people are today, I wouldn't want any of them going anywhere alone or driving until they were at least 21 and could make their own decisions :) I love them all dearly! Three are over 18 and they do drive and go places alone.

We are supposed to be an intelligent species?!?!?!

I don't think anyone should resort to abortion as an actual birth control method. However, sometimes birth control can fail or you may be raped at the time you're not on one. That's why I am pro choice, with the emphasis on word choice: forced abortions are as bad as forcing the woman to carry the child. Giving the baby up to adoption might sometimes be a good choice as well but it can be also very stigmatizing: some may consider the woman "selfish" or "heartless" because of giving up the child she gave birth to. This is a very touchy topic overall and certainly provokes all kinds of opinions, but I think it is very unfortunate that sometimes it escalates into blaming solely women for being irresponsible whores. I can't force my views on anyone but since I'm most certainly not a flawless person myself, I'm not going to judge anyone struggling with as delicate issue as unwanted pregnancy is.

No need to mince words....pro-choice is just an apology or a mask for being pro-abortion. These are the same people that protest war and execution yet find it easy to take out a weak and innocent life. These are the same people who value animals over human's lives cause they believe them to be innocent. I believe before, during and after that the aborted human may have been innocent also. And we all know that most abortions are influenced by pure selfishness as well as weakness. You can fuck without responsibility but cant put your life on hold to care for a human being that you helped create.

~400,000 children in America alone need adopted but instead live in foster care. But sure, let's make it so people can't have abortions so we can get that number higher. And as far as it's concerned, if you want to argue that stance, then men are killing millions of babies during materbation and women are killing babies during their periods. It is only an opinion as to where one drawa the line. Pro-choice isn't a guise for pro-abortion, it is he only stance to take that let's people do with their body as they please. And face it, if the baby is still attached, then it is still part of the woman, and thus only logical to be part of their discretion.

ABORTION ISN'T SUPPOSE TO BE LEGAL UNLESS RAPE IS INVOLVED I.M.O. Come on, people have been using condoms for thousands of years now and if fucktards learn to slip on on their penises, innocent little babies will never be harm. And by the way, you'll never know, one of these babies could have grown up to find a cure for cancer or something extraordinary.
