I got angrier and angrier as I read this, especially at the whole cavalier attitude of this "mother." The only thing keeping me from hitting the ceiling is my 4-year-old who is beside me on a music keyboard, playing a piece she calls, "The I love You song."
This 4-year-old is my 6th child, who came at a most inconvenient time, and though I was 41, I didn't even consider "getting rid of" her.
Nearly every reason people give to kill their unborns, I could give for one or another of my children, but they are all loved and wanted. Why do some people find it hard to believe that kids are a little more important than small jars of mayonnaise?

This 4-year-old is my 6th child, who came at a most inconvenient time, and though I was 41, I didn't even consider "getting rid of" her.

Thank You! I never wanted to have children of my own and fortunately never got pregnant.

Since I never got the maternal craving I didn't feel I deserved a child, besides the responsibility for another human being scares the heck out of me. My husband and I didn't do anything to prevent my getting pregnant after the first five years of marriage and I didn't.

But someone has to provide for the future and take on that HUGE responsibility and I thank you again for the sacrifices you have made for people like me.
