The whole "their life might not be good' argument really isn't all that compelling. Their life might also be great.

But let's not make this an abortion argument thread.

Why? Financial reasons? You don't feel you're ready for a child yet?

I know everyone isnt going to agree with what I choose but...

It's your body. Do what you feel is best for you.

Look, there's a lot of other options as well. If you can take care of a baby, and you feel you could, you should.

Also, survival in a foster home is preferable than death.

It's your choice to make, though, no matter what anyone says.

If you simply must abort, do so ASAP before the baby develops a brain and nerves.

Boy, that's not biased advice at all...

Whatever you think is the right thing to do is what you should do, MG. Don't let people sway you either way. If you don't think you're ready to raise a child, there's nothing wrong with that. But ultimately it's your choice and no one else's.

imo i dont think ppl should have kids unless they can properly provide for them and not struggle after all the child didnt ask to be born especially into a life that is difficult and hard..

I'm not going to comment on the stupidity behind "abort the baby for his sake" arguments.

She said she was ready.

Being ready and wanting to are different things.

Exactly, and wanting a child is part of being ready for one. Just because one has the means to raise a child doesn't mean they necessarily want to.

o jeez... I said I was ready but there are a lot of other factors that play into this not making it a good situation

what factors?

independence not willing to commit?

tell us woman forum wants to know.. this is my soap opera moment you got me fixated

MG, kids are a trial. Take it from me: I'm one of the few KMC'ers who is an actual parent. My daughter is my life. I couldnt imagine life without her. Kids are hard, but rewarding.

When you have a child, you have to give up your life. Period.

No arguments.

I considered aborting my daughter via discussion with my wife, but we decided not to.

I now live my life for the happiness of my child. My happiness is second.

The only thing I can say is: If you have this child, make sure you are ready to so the same.
