Abortion, from a baby's view

[Elspeth]

My 13 year old daughter sent me this.

I know abortion is a volitile issue and I am hesitiant to post this, even in K&C, but it is rather moving. Please take it in the spirit intended and let's not argue here.


month 1
Mommy, I am only 8 inches long, but
I have all my organs. I love the sound of your voice.
Every time I hear it, I wave my arms and legs. The
sound of your heart beat is my favorite lullaby.

month 2
Mommy, today I learned how to suck my thumb.
If you could see me, you could definatley tell that I am a
baby. I'm not big enough to survive outside my home though. It is so nice and warm in here.

month 3
You no what Mommy, I'm a girl!! I hope that makes you happy. I always want you to be happy. I dont like it when
you cry. You sound so sad. It makes me sad too, and I
cry with you even though you cant hear me.

month 4
Mommy, my hair is starting to grow. It is very short and fine, but I will have a lot of it. I spend alot of my time exercising. I can turn my head and curl my fingers and toes, and strtch my arms and legs. I am becoming quite good at it too.

month 5
You went to the doctor today. Mommy, he lied to you, He said that I'm not a baby. I am a baby Mommy, your baby. I think and feel. I can hear you and I know and love you. Mommy what is an abortion?

month 6
I can hear that doctor again. I dont like him. He seems cold and heartless. Something is intruding my home. The doctor called it a needle. Mommy what is it? It burns! Please maked him stop! I cant get away from it! Mommy!! HELP me!! Mommy, please make it stop Mommy!! I'm sorry Mommy! Make it stop! Please make it stop!!...

month 7
Mommy, I am okay. I am in Jesus's arms. He is holding me.

Even though my son and his girl friend decided to keep the baby, I gave them the abortion talk. I do not feel that at that point it was a baby. However, at 7 months(which NO clinic will preform an abortion, unless it threatens the mother's life) the is no reason for an abortion. It has gone on far to long, even by my standards.

dogshirt evidently you have never heard of partial birth abortion.

the only difference between you and that baby in the womb is time sir.

with the advances of medical science the chance of the birth of a baby ever effecting the mothers health (physical) are extremly rare if ever. so now we have the libreral crowd bring up the question of the mothers mental health.

abortion is nothing but a means of last ditch birth control for the people that didnt take the initiative to begin with a convienece. and it SUCKS!

I forgot I could make this a closed topic.

Since we don't want to argue in church, I'm going to turn this into a read-only thread.
