Juanita Santos Speaking as a 16 years old that has 5 friends that has had babies in High School as a teenage mother...
Teens are responsible enough to have a child...
Even if you say you are mature & know what you are doing...
But do you know what a pregancy can do to your body if your body has fully developed?
Before you lay down and have sex...
Think about your dreams as a teenager and what your life could be like...
Because once your baby is here...
YOUR DREAMS ARE GONE...
Now do not get me wrong...
You can chase them once your child is older...
But if you wolud have prevented it in the begining...
Your dreams would have came first.
This is my saying...
"If you are dumb enough to lay on your back to have sex... Then you are dumb enough to have a baby"
Even if you are raped...
Maybe then I can understand an abortion...

Myteca Smtih I think that even though you might be a teenager and raising a baby may be hard work as a teen you should'nt have an abortion because no one asks to be brought into this world you choose to have sex and becoming pregnant are one of the consequences. 12/2/2008
karmen im a teen mother i am married and i am in college and me and my baby and husband have a fine life we get along were not struggleing and i have no problem with raising my child. 11/24/2008
morgan i think people need to stay away from sexual sin.
wait until ur married,
abortion is wrong, if u think its okay,
maybe u need to reallly look at some of the pictures
of innocent lives that were taken away, because
of their careless, irresponsible mothers.
not always is it the mothers fault,
but its still not right to taken innocent childrens lives away.
but them up for adoption. give them to someone that
would love to have kids while your fooling around and being
careless.
abortions- MURDER.

kayla i think abbortion shouldint be illegal cuz i mean u hav sumtimes 10/29/2008
kayla I think that abortion is MURDER! I believe that it should be illegal cause it is taking an inosent childs life. Abortions should not be an option for an unwanted child birth because its the mothers fault in the first place. There are other options such as adoption, MURDER IS NOT THE ANSWER! 10/29/2008
