Teen Pregnancies

  1. Woah so I must have been doing something wrong since I have got 2 kids and yet I'm not married  how on earth have I brought them up?

    You all need to get off your high horses. Children don't only thrive in homes with married parents kiddies and this whole 'abortion is murder' argument has been done so many times it's boring as hell. Ghostie out. 
     
  2. On the adoption note, so you think abortion is "murder," but you're perfectly fine for the kids to get beaten up, raped, and probably end up living a not too bright life with a high chance of suicide?

    I'm not saying all adoption/foster stories are like this, but I've heard a lot of stories about it. Take for example (and excuse the example, one that came to mind) Marilyn Monroe, who lived in the foster system for a bit and was pretty much almost raped by her aunt's husband and stuff.

    Another example. My ex-supervisor and her boyfriend took in a kid whose mother wasn't much of a mother. I'd hear her complain about the boy and then eventually dropped him off in Las Vegas as soon as he turned 18. I never really found out where they dropped him off, but the story of his life wasn't that pleasant to hear.

    Personally, I'd rather abort than give up the child to a strangers who would probably do worse than the supposed "murderous" abortion.
     
  3. This is a bad topic.

    When you talk about controversial things, you should talk about it from an unbiased standpoint so you aren't influencing opinions or provoke a fight.. But this.
    This one.
     
  4. Let me explain somthing here, teen mother here and I would like to share somthing with all those young ladies who are having unprotected sex, my daughter is three months old I got prenant with her at the age of 17 now I am eighteen the sistuation I was in was most awful the babys dad left me and I was all alone but you know what I stayed in school and graduated u just gotta keep your head up and make sure you have your famliy just bc you have a baby at a young age does not mean its over, but in no means am I telling you to do it either
     
  5. I hate the "abortion is murder" bull. In my opinion, life doesn't begin until birth. I don't think that a tiny ball of cells is a life. And that is when most abortions are performed.

    Most of you have probably seen the propaganda pictures where they show ridiculously tiny babies after an abortion has been performed, but, if you would bother to do some research, you would see that those pictures are fake. That is not what a fetus that is less than 12 weeks old looks like.
     
  6. I'm suggesting you look more into that topic, and then not post your findings, which will contradict your last message, on forums.

    Please and thank you.
     
  7. I have done my research. And I'm not sure how that post contradicts my last one...
     
  8. Agreed Amanda.
     
  9. There is no definite way to determine of something's Alive or not, unless it has all 6 of the criteria for a loving creature. Some things that are considered Alice don't have all 6 of those. (plants are considered alive, but don't have self-initiated movement, fungi are considered alive but don't have self-initiated movement etc), so unless it has all 6 of them, it is not the definition of "alive". Like I said, they don't necessarily need all six to be considered alive, but if they don't, it's just up to interpretation. So the idiots going "abortion is murder", you're morons.
     
  10. You put in the torture....but really guys... They'll all tell you that. Nobody ever mentions the FUN it is to raise your very own child. Im not suggesting you should have a child as a teen. But if your choice is too... It does NOT ruin your life. It maybe exhausting... But what's the difference? You'll be exhausted if your 27 or 16. It wasn't my fault I had my child...The control pills didn't work. And I WAS scared, but when my son Riley was born...he met everything to me. I was 18 when I had Riley (boy). And now at 21 I have my second, Triston (girl) And me and my fiancé are very happy with our life. We did get full educations... INCLUDING college and a scholarship. So you see..it is an amazing experience. And if your 18 or 25 you'll still be exhausted and even if your 18 you'll still love them as much as you could when your 25.
     
  11. Crap this turned into an abortion war
     
  12. I don't think this is a war... Just people stating their reasons for their beliefs. It's only a war if it devolves into insult hurling. [:
     
  13. Eli, I applaud you for finishing shook and getting a degree, but, again, you are a rare breed. Most teens aren't mature enough to handle the responsibilities and don't end up going to college.

    But I don't really think you can say your first pregnancy wasn't your fault. The pill failing wasn't your fault. But you made the choice to have sex and you knew the risks and consequences. Knowingly engaging in sexual intercourse makes you and the father 100% responsible/at fault for the pregnancy. Just sayin'.
     
  14. Every situation is different, and all everyone is doing here is generalizing a sensitive topic.
     
  15. Being a pregnant is hard..
    if you a catholic don't used condom and if you have a boyfriend that he what to sex with you even you and your boyfriend love each other refuse him is too young to get sex even trying you to sex with refuse or break up with him.
     
  16. being a teen pregnant is hard..
    If you a catholic don't used condom as the church ordered and if you have a boyfriend that he want to sex with you refuse him and your boyfriend keep trying to sex with you refuse or break up with him.
     
  17.  am waiting till marriage 
     
  18. Me too, if it's a girl.

    If it's a guy then no. 
     
  19. Ooo ooo! I learned about this im my government class!

    15% of people say NO abortion for any reason
    85% of people say Abortion for girls who were RAPED

    55% of the 85% say Abortion for any reason
    30% of the 85% say only Abortion for girls who were raped.

    I'm kinda part of the 30% except it's a little more complex.


    Also, I just lost my virginity. Girls, IT HURTS! But then it feels good.... But wait for someone you KNOW is special. I waited for someone I thought was special...
    But I was on birth control AND he had a condom. So yeah. No baby in this oven!
     
  20.  still wanting till I get married 
