I'm not saying that that is either, but the child still deserves to live and have an opportunity to be in a family where it is loved. How would you (to anyone in general) feel if you were that baby that was planned to be aborted?

I was going to be aborted, however it wasn't readily available in the area at the time, so my grandmother told my mom to just have the baby and everything would be fine. With all the health problems and mental/emotional ones, I've often wished she'd told my grandmother to fuck off and done it anyways.

Banning abortion, or condemming those who want/have had them is not the answer. The answer is regulation. Who qualifies, what can be charged for them. If someone goes in at 21 weeks and says "I want an abortion" I personally think the answer should be "no." but if someone walks in at 6 weeks, they should have the option....

Kids should require to notify their parents and attend a meeting with a counselor before hand.

It shouldn't be private, it should be placed on your medical record (in canada, it is not placed on your records at all, I could have gotten sick the day after mine ,and if no one had known, they'd have had no idea), and it should be covered by insurance when being done for medical reasons.

There is so much that could be put in place other than just banning it.... the world is not ready to take on such a high number of new babies each year.. we're talking millions.

I disagree on that part, because everyone has a different situation. There are certain situations where the parents knowing of their daughter's abortion or desire to have one, would either get the girl severly beaten, or killed (in some cases).
Some parents aren't as open-minded or supportive of their daughters/abortion, as yours may be (I don't actually know exactly what your situation was, but from what I've inferred, your mother seemed pretty supportive) so yeah.

You get what I'm trying to say?

I get what you're saying, and part of me agrees.

But if a teenage boy and girl knew that if they had sex and got pregnant that they had to tell their parents, they might think twice before doing it in the first place.

My main goal behind putting a  lot of rules on Abortion, is to stop people from having more than one.

Well seeing as you'll never be in the situation to need to make a choice about whether or not to abort, your decision about the matter isn't really that important.

Well, sewing as you're a cocky prepubescent girl who can't keep her pants on, your input matters all the more.

I'm not prepubescent, and my sex life is none of your business, but I won't deny the fact that I'm cocky.

And you're right about another thing too: seeing as I may be in the situation where I have to decide whether or not to abort, my input does matter more.

Im guessing the day you have sex, we can label you a man-slut?

Youve already been labelled a retard, may as well keep 'em coming.

Oh I love when you insult me. It really makes you look mature.

I notice how you haven't said anything about why you think abortions are wrong. You seem to have a bit of trouble staying on topic, darling.

Hit me with your best shot. Insult my age (which you don't know), my sex life (which you also don't know), my family, my education, my existence in general (all topics on which you have no education), and then when you finally get back onto the topic of abortion, everyone will already know that you talk about things you have absolutely no knowledge of, so my work will be basically done.

It's really great debating with people like you, because you prove yourself wrong before I even get a chance to. Leaves me more time to have home-wrecking pre-marital lesbian sex after my seventh abortion

ROTFLMAO...

Oh this is going to be good if it happens. But I agree, if people can't give a reason as to why they're pro-life, then they may as well just vote and not reply. All we're going to do is ask why, and they'll start being insulting.

And you know, it sort of bothers me when a guy says he's pro-life... I know too many guys who talk their girlfriends out of abortions, and take off either right before the baby comes, or right after.. and bitch that they have to pay child support. May as well let her h ave the abortion she wanted in the first place eh?

Notice how you care only about yourself and not of the lives of others including the fetus you may be killing.

Your maturity could be compared to that of a prostitute. You put pleasure before moral and that is what makes you selfish now and forevermore.

Really, though, debating with a Canadian is a lost cause and not worth the effort.

Oh sweetie, but I don't only care for myself. I also care about the taxpayers who would be paying for my baby via my welfare check, the check I would be receiving because of how expensive independent living with a baby is. And my boyfriend, who wouldn't be able to afford child support, and my family and everyone around me who would also suffer from the unexpected, unwanted (and entirely hypothetical, by the way) pregnancy.  

I'm like a prostitute eh? That's cute. But I don't recall ever claiming to put pleasure before morality. But you know, I'm 16 going on 17, and I need someone older wiser telling me what to do. Since you're so much older and smarter, can you do me the humble favour of telling me when I've ever put pleasure before morality? I mean since you know so much about me, I'd just like you to remind me of the time, because I'm not recalling.

Also: my nationality? Nice one! I wouldn't have thought of that on my own.

You remind me of a small child who realizes he's cornered so starts calling people doo doo heads.
