A... would be the most common answer imo. it almost deserves a thread of its own lol

speaking from a woman's perspective, i think the only answer is pro-choice. though i am not for abortion absolutely, i believe there are certain instances where the option is essential. if a woman is *****, if her life is directly threatened by giving birth, if the child's life is directly threatened by giving birth, etc. i do not believe that teenage irresponsibility is a reason to justify an abortion. i've heard some of you blame girls for going out and being sexually active... you have to point the finger to the boy who is involved, as well. i am all for teaching about contraception and ****** abstinence, but there has to be another option.

personally, i could never live with myself if i had to make that decision to abort my baby. my solution would be adoption. i know some of you will counter that this is the only moral solution to an unwanted pregnancy, but think of all the children that are put up for adoption, how difficult the adoption process actually is, and how many kids remain in foster homes or bounce around from family to family until they become of age. that's not fair for them to not have a normal childhood, either.

i just want you guys to think about how this affects the woman. this is a decision that she will have to live with for the rest of her life. it's not as simple as throwing a piece of garbage in the trash can. i can guarantee that any normal, emotional human being would be haunted by this kind of decision for as long as they live.

thats kinda what i think too. much of what i have said you also said. i just dont understand whow it can be a complete yes or no subject. like i said there is a medium but it will more than likely never be met.

I would personally never encourage abortion, but it's not my place to tell others either way.

totally agreed. my opinion is you can't regulate morality. each woman has to make their own decision on this. what is right for some, may not be right for others. but having the option to choose is what makes this country what it is.

agreed, like i said, people think you should live by their beliefs and should not have your own choice on many things in life.

This is the basis for my backing pro choice as well. For some reason, it is easier to adopt a kid from China than an American.
