My
Girlfriend Wants An Abortion
If
someone you care about is contemplating an abortion,
you must not remain silent. You have a responsiblity
to your child and yourself to dicuss the options with
your girlfriend.
Abortion
carries traumatic consequences, not only for the baby,
but also for the mother and father. This may seem to
be an option that hides the fact that your girlfriend
is pregnant. You may think the problem is gone. However,
evidence-based research has shown that many men and
women suffer traumatic consequences called post
abortion trauma. They are filled with guilt and
shame, regretting the choice they made.
Society
will tell you that this life is just a piece of tissue
and this "simple" procedure" will eliminate
all your problems. It is not quite that easy. Your child
is a life. It is not an extension of your girlfriend's
body. See the first 9
months of a baby.
Sometimes
we make bad decisions. It is always wise to accept responsibility
for our mistakes and make better decisions. The danger
would be to make another unwise decision that would
lead to more regret and heartache for you and your girlfriend.
Don't stand by in silence while your girlfriend makes
this decision alone.
