ORIGINAL: slaverosebeauty Abortion is murder. Darlin....i've held this view my entire life, but sometimes, even something as bad as this need to be rethought. (I can't believe I just said that) If you don't want to have a child, then use birthcontrol ALL the time That deosn't always work. Two of my kids are living proof. Not only did I use the pill, but used rubber as well. Thier is NO justification for murdering a child, that is what an abortion is, murder. It stops a beating heart, therefor it is murder. I pray every day for Roe v.Wade to be overturned, when that happens, I want it to be made a felony, just like any other murder or henius crime, its torture and murder, simple as that. Would you rather mom go to a back alley or use a coathanger and take the risk of killing herself as well? Those who DO support this murder, have you ever SEEN an abortion preformed? The baby MOVES, it reacts to pain, its alive and responsive. The baby get sucked out with a vaccum like device, its head gets crushed, and all the while, its moving and ALIVE. Yes....I have seen real abortions. and yes...it's very ugly...one of the reason why I have been against abortion for so long. After my last post here last night, I ended up calling my daughter to talk to my grandaughter. After speaking with the little one, her mom takes the phone and asks me what's wrong. I said..Who said anything was wrong? She comes back with..Mom, your calling at 3am to talk to the baby. She got me on that. That's something I don't do. So I told her about this discussion...told her about the different things people said here and of course what I said. She said..."How did I feel I was any different than what the government was trying to do?" I asked her to explain and she asked if I remembered what I said a few years ago when she first came to me about being pregnat and thinking of abortion.....I remembered what I said clear as day. "If you didn't want a kid, you should have kept your legs closed. Not only are you going to carry and give birth to this child, but your going to get a job, care for it, teach it what it needs to know and be a mother to it. You made your bed, now your going to lay in it." I became so dumfounded. She was right....I was no better than the government. I apologized to her for it, but she said not to as she was glad I made her keep the baby, she loves the baby. She told me to remember, that not every woman making this choice had the backing she had raising her child. I again asked what she meant...She said..."The whole time raising my little girl, who was there to correct me when I made a mistake, who picked me up when I fell....who took the baby when she became too much for me, who has always been there and is still there if I need...you mom. Unfortunately, a lot of women making the choice to abort, don't have someone there to hold their hand if they decide to keep the baby. They don't always have someone to hug them and assure them that the child they carry through rape is not going to turn out like the dad who made it...or comfort the memories as the child is a reminder of rape. They don't always have the resources to raise a normal child, much less one that might be born with a disibility." And we continued talking till almost 6am. I was so awestruck by what my daughter was telling me. She's a bright kid. She also made one more statement before hanging the phone...."Mom....just because you may change your opinion...one you've carried for so long....doesn't mean your any less of a person....it just means you've finally woken up." And with that, I layed my head down as a tear strolled down the side of my face.
