Well, you'll be very pleased to hear that she went though with it. Her boyfriend's ghoulish parents paid to have the baby killed, and the little one was butchered yesterday at 1:00 pm CST.
I'm sure that will make your day.

Oh, Skooz, I am so sorry for you and your family, and for her, and especially for that little baby.
I know that you did your best to dissuade her.
There are some people that are bullheaded and cannot be persuaded. They have to learn things the hard way. I guess she's one of them.
But God's mercy is infinite.

There are some people that are bullheaded and cannot be persuaded. They have to learn things the hard way. I guess she's one of them. After Amanda left and things calmed down a bit, my mom turned to me and told me that Amanda has too much of me in her. She's too much like her uncle Skooz. That's true.

and it's only happened 40,000,000 times in this country
That's the problem skooz. It's become so commonplace it's like taking out the laundry.

I'd probably feel bad about it in the morning, but I'd have her stuff on the front step. If she values this boy and his parents opinon over her own parents, she can go be with them then. Tough love I guess, but she is 18, no long legally their responsibility. But then again, like I said, I'd probably feel bad about it after the shock and anger wore off. Two wrongs really don't make a right.
Best wishes. I hope she sees the light about him and his family before this happens again or a rift forms. Maybe this one incident will straighten her out.

Please, are you saying that there is nothing wrong in this; that the woman should go ahead and kill the baby - per boyfriend's parents ultimatum? No I'm saying that a parent can't say "never again" to a 16 year old. In 2 years he will be 18. I'm also saying that the parents are monsters in the first place for saying that. I made a post earlier where I expressed my feelings about marriage for them too.
To: Skooz
Skooz, I'm so sorry for your family, for Amanda, and for her dear baby. Unfortunately, her decision reflects the culture in which she lives, her family's efforts notwithstanding. I'm sorry she didn't have the strength to resist the pressure of her boyfriend's parents; it's a hard thing for such a young woman to withstand. I fear she has more pain ahead. It strengthens my resolve to address this with our own sons as they come into adolescence and adulthood. We wouldn't want them to create life until they are ready to nurture a family. This is a tragic outcome.
To: Skooz
The little one resides in Heaven now. Let my tears serve as the baby's mermorial.
To: ThinkingMan
Thank you. We are all deeply upset right now. It's been a bad week for all of us, including my niece. We have never dealt with anything like this before.

I cannot even begin to imagine your pain. Remember that God has a plan for each of us and it is beyond our abilities to understand His plan. He will carry you and yours through this difficult time if He is allowed to. I will pray for his peace and love to blanket your family.
To: Skooz
I'm so sorry for you and for her, she'll suffer the rest of her life for a bit of convenience. I hope she is able to turn to the mercy of God when she realizes what she has done.

I'm so sorry, Skooz.
At least you know that you all really tried to save that baby. God bless you for that.

I'm sorry to hear that. Make sure she gets some counseling.

I am so sorry, sounds like you did everything you could. I agree with AppyPappy. Some counseling would probably help. Too bad she wouldn't go before the abortion.
I just don't understand the reasoning behind Amanda's saying she would rather have an abortion than give the baby up for adoption. So many good families are waiting and waiting for years to have what she just threw away.
I also hope the boyfirned doesn't dump her now, although with his parents being like that it would probably be a blessing in the long run. We'll keep you all in our prayers. Time will heal - somewhat.
To: Skooz
I am so sorry.
To: Skooz
Skooz--
I've never corresponded with you, but I was so sorry to hear your story. Your pain and fear were palpable, and I hope you received some measure of comfort from your friends here.
Trust that your niece's baby is in a much better place than this world, where she never had a chance.
And trust also that the poor child has already forgiven your niece.
To: Skooz
I'm so very sorry. I pray that God will somehow be able to make some good come from this.
I also hope that young Amanda will be consolable when she and her despicable little "man" separate in a few months.
