Extreme Anti-Abortion Issues

i would hope that if you had done that to daughter she would have found a way to ensure you have nothing whatsoever to do with your grandchild's life. in generally i don't think the child should be told, and definitely not while still a child.

My child, you are loved. You are worthy of life. You are beautiful and perfect in every way to me. Your smile is the sunshine of my day. Your laughter is the music to my life. You were the light in my darkness, the shining beacon of hope that guided my heart from bitterness and hatred to love and forgiveness. You are yourself, not the "product" of any evil, even if evil was meant towards me. You are not a product, you are a worthy person and here because I loved you more than I hated him. You are the healing balm that allowed me to find a reason to live and worth any sacrifice I made. What more should you tell any child, other than you love them?

If you smart, and have a brain, you don't tell the child. NEVER. Not that I am anti-abortion. On the contrary. But these days, the people on the witchunt for rapists and other things, are doing more harm than good. There were a case in the US not long ago, where they did find a woman which had been abducted by a couple as a child. That young woman was working, was happy and living what she believed to be a perfect normal life. When the couple was arrested, the young woman was told that she had been abducted as a child, and molested and raped by her abductor. Overnight, she went from being a normal person, to a total wreck. We were told that it would take her years to recover mentally before she could live a normal life again. What we see here, is a total lack of compassion for the victim. We use the victim in order to make sure the culprit will get the maximum sentance. People in their desire for vengeance are losing the plot. It should not be about satisfying your thirst for justice. It should be about helping the victim.

I can't wait for some of the "good" answers you'll no doubt get! Annie

Why should the child be punished for the sins of the father? If you don't want the child, then fine, there are plenty of people out there who do and would be happy to raise him/her. But why deny a child their right to life because of the horrors inflicted by their father?

The choice would be hers and I would support her regardless of her decision. I may fall of the side of life but that is my belief and I respect that others have their own. If she wanted to have the baby I would make sure she got the care she needed to have a healthy pregnancy. If she decided on an abortion I would make sure she was given the best of care in that respect.

If you were the child of rape how would you want to be told? and would you want to be alive?

It's hilarious (and telling) just how "anti choice" most "pro choice" people are. Are you saying here that any woman who chose to not abort a baby concieved in violence is being "abusive"?

If my daughter got pregnant in an attack when she is 15 years old I would be very sad for her. She wouldn't have chosen to get pregnant and the father would be called a rapist. I would get some help for my daughter so she could speak to professionals. I would support her to have her baby and call is a baby without a father in his or her life. Well, the father would be in jail. I wouldn't suggest that the child ever found out he or she is a product of a rape. That would be horrible and most unfair to the child to have that awful information. The father could simply be 'unknown'. My daughter is currently 17 months old.

I would support their decision no matter what as I am a pro choice person it is not an issue that should be any real business of the governments. Also forcing anyone against their will into something like this would be damaging to the persons mental health. There is such things as the morning after pill which terminates the pregnancy before it can reach a stage of being anything more than a cell or a small multi-celluar organism classified as a parasite. That is what humans are for their first few months even when outside of the womb a parasite. Anyway it is a personal choice. As for the reporting of it to parents I believe this should be required as the parent could be the Rapist or abusive person that the baby is theirs. That is more likely than many other cases. It is a personal choice as it is a personal belief if the baby is a human while inside the mother or not. So it would depend on the persons beliefs so it should be allowed to stay as a persons personal liberty to make the judgment call. If they protected transplanting the baby into another womb or even in to a artificial womb then we could see abortions go away to another system of getting rid of the child. But that is a little scifi and not sure how the religious people would think of babies being supported by machines or being transplanted into another person. (Not sure how we would transplant the baby into another person and have the mothers body kick in to handle the fertilized egg.) As for the Child being alive in the womb here is a question then why aren't they counted on the census?
