I have grown up in a heavily religious community for just over fourteen years, attending mass every Sunday I have become accustomed to the vengeful and spiteful god painted by the Reverend. A god who made lists of sins and beliefs humans must abide by to get under his good graces. One being the sanctity of life regardless of circumstance, the termination of life will result in eternal condemnation.
I found out I was pregnant in the beginning of grade 9, it came as a total shock , I didn't know what to do. I knew my parents would've been furious and disowned their daughter as total whore. The father was a one night stand so I didn't have his phone number and when I finally did reach him and I spit out the words "I'm pregnant", he ran. I have never felt so alone.
Yesterday I passed by our county's family planning office on my way to school enveloped by protesters with signs that read,"You can't be a Catholic and pro- abortion", "Her blood is on your hands", " I regret my abortion. Just as I was about to continue on when a girl caught my eye . She couldn't have been older than myself, she looked like she hadn't slept in weeks she was trying to wedge herself through the wall of protesters. I watched her get eaten alive.
As of this point I had been trying to shove my pregnancy to the back of

Somehow I'll have to shove school somewhere between pulling overtime and changing diapers. I could go live with a friend and their parents but it only be short term and I'd still have to get a job . Child protective services would probably get involved anyway and put me and my child in the system. Making it so I might as well have put in up for adoption in the first place. The thing about both is it involves people finding out how much of a slut I am and pushing a living thing out of me. Both sound about equally
Abortion is killing innocent children and affecting the lives of many women across the United States. These actions speak words loudly saying, I don't want the child so I’m taking the easy way out and killing the baby. Abortion is just another excuse to not take responsibility for the actions you took. The United States should make abortion illegal. Abortion is wrong because there are many different options other than killing the baby, it is unsafe for the woman, and women that have had abortions live with that fact every day physically and emotionally.
- The overwhelming majority of abortion clinic—88%—experienced at least one form of harassment in 2008. 87% reported picketing, 42% were picketing with patient blocking, and 21% cited incidents of vandalism. And more shockingly, nearly one-fifth of all of the largest abortion facilities reported a bomb threat. (Jones, 2011)
On March 30, as of three thirty in the morning, my life has officially changed. The labor pains had set in and it was time to have a baby. I had never felt a pain so excruciating in my life, and I thought that cramps were terrible, labor pains do not even compare. I climbed the stairs to my aunts room to let her know that it was time to go to the hospital. After watching her run around the room frantically she finally was able to rush me to the hospital. She zoomed through street lights rushing for fear that I may have the baby in the car and she would pass out. Had
As one of the major co-sponsors of #ProtestPP, we coordinating pro-life protest at Planned Parenthood facilities across the country. We will confront the many abortionists and their allies wherever they are. We protest outside abortion facilities and at pro-abortion events, infiltrate their meetings and groups, investigate and expose their illegal activity, and even creatively confront them with the reality of what they’re doing. We have also published the moving testimonies of former abortion providers. (1)
An 18 year old girl gets pregnant and can’t decide whether to keep the baby or have an abortion. Her parents are very religious and do not believe in sex before marriage therefore would not take to kindly to their daughter being pregnant.
I come from a home that is very religious and strict, we went to church every Sunday morning and evening and on Wednesday nights. It was during the summer after my sophomore year of high school, when I got pregnant. I had no idea up until I started getting the dreadful symptoms of being pregnant, yes, I’m talking about morning sickness. My dad came to me and said, “There is no way you could be pregnant, right?”. I did not want to talk about
I would least want to work with the clients who wish to do abortions. Based on my Christian faith, I believe that it is a sin to abort an unborn baby. The fact that I take part in the decision making put me in the position of a sinner. I feel that this could affect my spirituality as a dedicated Christian. For the sake of maintaining my commitment to my Christian faith, I would rather not deal with abortion-related problems.
Two years had passed and I was now in the fifth grade. Still no siblings, but my mom did babysit at home, which gave me the opportunity to help out and feel as though I had younger siblings again. One day after school my mom and dad were waiting for me in the car outside of Denkmann Elementary School. I ran out to the car and opened my door and sitting on the center console of the back seat there was a pregnancy test that read positive. I knew my parents had been trying, but they had never been able to conceive. It took me a second to process what I was seeing, but once I did I began to shake with excitement. I was finally going to have a sibling of my own.
I was 5 years old and it was just me my mom and my dad, for the longest time I wanted a sibling to play with and you know how five year olds are they want everything there friends have . So when my mom told me i was getting a sister I was so excited as the months went by we got more and more girls’ things for my “sister”. As the date came closer I became more and more anxious, so when the date came I was at preschool when one of the teachers came to my classroom that my mother had gone through labor but instead of a girl it was a boy, I was very Very confused.
Ten little fingers, ten little toes, two little eyes, one little nose, but nobody knows. Thinking back to the day it all came out. Being a recent high school graduate thinking you are grown, working part time, and going to school is far from easy then adding the reasonability of a tiny human is unbearable. However, the worst part is having to tell your mom your having a baby at the age of nineteen. I remember crying in the bathroom on the floor thinking of all the ways I could tell or the places I could go so I would not have to tell her. One thing I can say is my mother loves her child and can always tell when something is going on. The rollercoaster of events that led up to me finally telling my mom I’m pregnant was definitely a life changing conversation that has shaped me into the strong independent young woman I am today.
I’m a 16 year old girl who is 6 weeks pregnant. I did not think I would ever say that. So far, my boyfriend whose name is Jayden, his mom, and my mom are the only people who knew. It was extremely difficult to tell my mom this. I was born and raised in a very Christian family who take their religion and values seriously. When I had the courage to tell my mom I was pregnant, I was not only embarrassed, but ashamed of myself. My mom was not angry at me. She was only disappointed.
I was in seventh grade when I found out that my mother was pregnant. My sister, dad, and I were standing in line at Chipotle while my mom was in Chicago for work. Our dad started saying something and he abruptly stopped speaking, causing us to bombard him with questions. “WHAT?.. TELL US!” He finally came out to say that we were going to have another sibling soon. “WHAT?” my sister and I responded with a blank face, not believing that it was true because it was very unexpected. Eventually, after arguing for a few minutes over the truth, we believed that it was happening and
The fourth reasoning to disagree with abortion is because it ruins lives. The mother’s life is ruined, first of all, because she will from that point on think about the child she never had because of this stupid mistake. In some situations, women have an abortion to save their relationship with her significant other. Men typically don’t want children, so if a woman becomes pregnant she has an abortion to fix the relationship. In most cases though, this doesn’t fix these relationships. They couple ends up splitting and the women is left alone. She lost her baby and her significant other. If she didn’t get an abortion and was honest with her situation, maybe she wouldn’t end up alone. This hardening story brings readers to see that abortion is wrong, it doesn’t solve any problems, but creates new ones. Taking an innocent life away is not the answer to everyone’s problems.
For years, abortion providers have been targeted on a spectrum of aggressiveness. The National Abortion Federation reports more than 176,000 instances of picketing at clinics (and nearly 34,000 arrests) since 1977. It has documented more than 16,000 reported cases of hate mail or harassing phone calls, over 1,500 acts of vandalism and 400 death threats. (Hutcherson, 2015) There have been more than 200 bombings and arson attacks at facilities that offer abortion services, the organization reports. According to the federation, the first reported clinic
What is abortion? Abortion is the ending of a pregnancy before birth. Early in a pregnancy, the fertilized egg that grows and develops is called the embryo. After three months of development, it is usually called a fetus. An abortion causes the embryo or fetus to die. Abortion is a very inhumane thing to do I could never think of giving up a baby even when it is not an actual humane, when it is in the lady it is still considered a person to me no matter what. I have five nephews and nieces and I don't know what I would have done if one of my sisters would have got an abortion.
