I've been reading posts on here, and some are young expecting mothers asking for support, where others are teens who have decided to abort the baby.

either way, they get shot down.

so which is the better choice? Going down the harder lower-class possibly welfare client, but keeping the kid?

or aborting it and getting a handle on life until your REALLY ready to have one?

Adoption is there i guess- the orphanages are just jam packed with kids who need homes and loving parents... it seems so cruel to add to that.

Keeping the kid is way better than abortion.

On LiveWire, you'd probably get more shot down for having the kid. It's pretty equal though.

Personally, I respect the woman's right to choose and most of the time I also respect her decision, if it's educated and well thought out.

If a teen mom REALLY thinks she's prepared to take on the responsibility of caring for a child, then keep it. If she's not, abort it.

Personally, I'd rather have an abortion. Some girls just aren't mentally ready to bring up a child and I think it's wrong to make the kid suffer because of it.
Plus, I want to get the most out of my life before settling down with kids. Although, those who do choose to keep it and bring it up properly, I have a lot of respect for them.

I highly respect any teenage mom that can stand up & say "Yes, I screwed up, but now I'm having a beautiful baby." ... I am pro-life.

The parents don't decide the fate the child, he or she has the right to choose live or not live.

 Abortion is evil why does the kid have to pay the price, when the teen parents are the people that screw up WTF

I believe if you cant take care of a kid, then you shouldnt be having sex. I know others dont believe that, but if you cant take care of one, then take yourself out of any chance to have one
