Another important part of the whole abortion issue. A lot of women choose abortion because it’s the easy way out, or so they think at the time. It’s later when they realize that isn’t always the case at all. It can have a devastating impact on the rest of a persons life and you can’t turn back the clock. Once it’s done, that’s it and I think a lot of people don’t realize that at the time. Later though, it can be really painful, especially when people start having a family. That really slams it home.
And I get that people aren’t ready to have a kid sometimes, but just because you don’t get an abortion doesn’t mean you have to be a parent. There are a LOT of people out there who are never ready to really settle down and raise a child, there is nothing wrong with that at all.
It’s just that there are countless people who want a child more than anything in the world but who can’t conceive. I wish people would choose adoption over abortion.
The aftermath of abortion is a painful process for millions of people. But what really bugs me, as I said before, is the fact that it’s all about the women.
If you had wanted to keep that child and the girl was dead set against it and wanted an abortion, no changing her mind, she would have been able to get it anyway. That’s just not right. Men should have a say in what happens to their children too.
I also think that guys should talk about what it’s like for them. We hear about women who regret having an abortion but rarely about the men. They are out there though. Like you said, you have feelings about what happened, tons of guys do but for some reason it seems to be a taboo type of subject. Like abortion is something that only happens to women. It’s often traumatic for the fathers too, I think they need some support as well.
I could go on and on and on but I’ll shut up now
