How can I convince my friend not to have an abortion?

What gives you the right to dictate your friends life? Are you going to sit around with a baby and feed it every 4 hours? Are you going to change the diapers, clothe it, put it through school? Are you going to be going through the emotional and financial turmoil of the next well forever? If not, back off, this is none of your business…

I agree with ty. Put yourself in her shoes. You should support the choice she makes and be there for her. Preaching your thoughts to her may just ruin your friendship.

Ugh. Don’t listen to none of them. You are right. She willl be killing another human being. Just try and be there for her. Whatever she choses just stick with her and be the best for her. She’s going through a rough time =).

I know its not my choice.. but the reason im so against her getting an abortion is because I knew her opinion about it, she might do it purely for the reason she feels she has to, and she asked me for my advice. so im not all up in her business

im being her friend, this is what im supposed to do

1. God doesnt make mistakes if he didnt want the child created it wouldnt have been. 2)what will she say to her future kids?”I killed your brother or sister”? 3)The bible says that God has a soft spot for kids and that murder is an unforgivable sin.Put two and two together and think of the punishment shell recieve. 4)Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together. 5)Ask her whats shes gonna do when she gets older and sees children as a good thing then thinks “I could have had one” and cries herself to sleep becasue she cant take back the murder of her child.

omg people shes not murdering the fkkn thing its NOT EVEN ALIVE YET.

Shes a fkkn teenager! shes obviously not ready to be a mom!

its HER CHOICE.

why does everyone let GOD run their lives??

its the FRIEND’S decision, nobody else’s!!

Got did not ruin. Anybodys like wtf. He made you so you shouldn’t even be talking. And that thing is a baby. And human life that hopefully will be born and put to adoption. Annndd her friend is going through a lot. So she can’t make the decision alone!

I’m going to tell it like it is. Please don’t be angry with me.

I totally get where you’re coming from. She shouldn’t kill another human being and all, but technically its not killing it because the heart isnt beating yet.

another thing is, you wouldnt be the one to have to go through the pregnancy. and even if she just put it up for adoption, it would still be emotionally scarring to have to carry the thing in your stomach for nine months, then hand it over to someone else.

nevertheless, you’re her best friend. you should understand that studies have proven that almost every teenage girl feels empty and used after sex with someone they dont truly love. (something about marriage’s bonds of love and security being better for sex)

do you feel she doesnt understand the depth of what she’s done? maybe she didnt think about responsibility- it’s called hormones, and they go crazy once in a while, and EVERYONE MAKES MISTAKES.

the fact is, it isnt your job to tell her what to do with the baby. if she asks for your advice, give her your honest opinion. it isnt your life and overall whatever she chooses, your going to have to suck it up and deal with it.

im sorry if I sound rude (im kind of only 13, but im told I have wisdom beyond my years) because I honestly dont mean to be. im just giving you MY advice.

1 Adoption is the key - Instead of killing the child (and thats what it is, a CHILD) why not give it life and than to one of the 50,000,000 families in America who cant have a child but want one?

2 Mental Stress - MOST women who have abortions go through so much stress and anxiety because they know deep down they have killed another person, driving some as far as suicide in some cases.

3 Abortion harms women physically, if she kills her current child, it increases the risk of breast cancer, and may make her unable to have children in the future.

4 When she continues the pregnancy, she will have access to all types of councilling services in crisis pregnncy centres, there workers will be there to help her all the way (most of the time its a free service to), whereas should she choose death over life, planned parenthood will sit her in the chair rip the life out from inside her and send her the bill. No care in the world, they wont be there to council her or to care for her.

5 Life begins at conception, your friends chid, allthough unseen and unheard, is ALIVE, s/he is moving round, playing with there toes and fingers. More importantly, s/he is not a clump of cells but a REAL person - this has been proven in science (despite what the pro-aborts will tell you)

Here are just a few arguements, if you need anymore advice, please feel free to PM me and I will help you as best I can.
