      ***** A world with safe, accessible abortions is a better place than a world without them. Women (in countries with legal abortion) are no longer getting botched abortions, no longer being suspected of 'murder' when they have a miscarriage, no longer being forced to carry and give birth to a severely deformed child with zero chance of living more than a couple of days. Less children are sleeping on the streets or in group homes, less children are abused, less women are tied to their rapist for 18 years, and less women are being forced to risk pregnancy and birth related death. Bodily autonomy is a beautiful thing.

You always have the right to make decisions for your body. Women having those same rights, which includes abortion, is not unfair or unequal. You're missing the point that there will never be a time where you're forced to do something with your body, so there should never be a time where a woman is either.

      "It's down to both parties involved to make the decision" Ring any bells? Nothing I said was misogynistic. If you accidentally get pregnant because of not bothering to use birth control then why should people be patting you on the back and calling you brave? It make zero sense. Same the man involved, knowing there's a chance that a woman can get pregnant but still going through with it is just naive from both the man and the woman. I believe woman who have medical conditions or rape victims should have a right to an abortion but not woman who can not be bothered to use birth control. Please change my mind by telling me why a woman and man who are having unprotected sex should have the right to abort their child because it was a "mistake". Also as just a side note why turn to abortion when you can put the child up for adoption? At least it can have a chance at life that way.

      @@alexusdumont951 , I'm very surprised to hear you say that, there were several things you said in the video that mildly or strongly suggest otherwise. You state at one point you have no regrets, but in 4 or5 others you talk about crying a lot, that it's been very hard, that you wished your boyfriend would have responded to the news differently, that looking at the ultrasound of the baby was really difficult, I think a few other things too.
      A lie that is perpetuated today is that a baby growing in the womb is just a clump of cells, no! If that is true then we are all clumps of cells also, but of course we are so much more. It is natural, the bond between mother and child, natural and instinctive to want to protect and care for that child, and this is what every woman that has an abortion struggles with to one degree or another, consciously or subconsciously. It's what I heard you squirming and trying to deal with just in the video alone, and I do appreciate your honesty in that. But I have no doubt that it's been far more difficult for you than what we saw here.
      With all my heart, I really hope that the same mistake is not made, that you will come to understand that a precious human life is priceless compared to travel or a job. We all make mistakes, the key is always to learn from them and avoid the same thing.I do wish you a great life.

      @@rumaleovi3244 *warning, long response- srry* I think the premise for your argument has a fundamental difference to a pro-lifers. That would be the value of the human soul. While you might think the onus is on our society to increase education, I think this is an issue of the heart. Most people know the consequences of sex. However, people will still refuse hormonal birth control because of the toll on the body, and many people refuse to use condoms simply because they damper the experience. People know they have abortion to succumb to in the event they get pregnant. I dont want to assume this is the line of logic, but we live in a society that argues so heavily on women choices and undermines the personhood of a small fetus calling it a “clump of cells”, “unconscious”, “unviable”. I think this minimizes the idea of abortion to much of our society. In essence, I believe this removes the weight of an abortion for many who go into that decision. A “pro-lifer” emphasizes that at the time of conception a human life is brought into the world. A human with a soul, with the same potential as every other “viable” human whose mothers let them live. A human soul is different from just a human. There isn’t a perception that we live in nothing more than a finite biological world thats guided only by evolution, cultural relativism, and moralism. Its believed that a human soul is hand crafted by a loving God who sees that living soul as a unique identity and made in his image, having its own set of DNA, own dreams, personality, etc. While sex might be the means to conception, the belief is that God gives life through sex, as he sees suite. Sex without a creator would just be sex and would not create life. So when you say the child is “unwanted”, perhaps by its mother, but not by God. Its an issue of the heart. A mother not willing to give up her whole life for her child. Radical, right? There are a proportional amount of unplanned pregnancies that mothers pursue in hardship who pick up multiple jobs, sacrifice their whole life. Many of those women reap a harvest of joy from their children. So if you want to talk about education… We can talk about what our society doesn’t teach. Our “progressive society” emphasizes self over others. Its actually hardens people’s hearts. The entire life of Christ is to give it up for others. To lay our lives down in love and service. Those sacrifices actually lead to inward thriving, harvesting love, and joy, and peace. Our society doesn’t teach that? I am someone speaking from experience. I got pregnant, unplanned, at 21 y/o. I can say that you give up your whole life for your baby. But there is not another experience in my life that has ever filled my heart the way having a child has. The innocent, precious way a baby looks into your eyes, and giggles, and coos. It lights up your heart. Having a baby.. its not a punishment. Its gods way of teaching us the beauty of life. I wish our society taught more on the sacredness of life and the transforming power of a baby and becoming a parent, and equipped mothers for motherhood in the event they get pregnant. Thats what I wish our society taught.

I mean it seems to me that she had pretty much fun getting laid, so why couldn't she had fun confronting the situation she knew she could had gotten into? there's no excuse. if she was young n financially unstable she should had kept her pretty legs shut.

    my best friend took a pregnancy test in the school bathroom sophomore year. it came out positive. we kept the secret for a while until she had to tell her mom. fifteen at the time. she was in an abusive on and off relationship. he told her they would keep the baby and he would drop out of school and get a job and so would she. she didn’t want this. her mom took her to the clinic to get an abortion. it was very traumatic she named her child and got a tattoo for it. this ultimately the right decision for her. i was raped when i was thirteen, had never gotten my first period, and found out i was pregnant. my aunt took me to get an abortion. this was the right situation for me. the father would have been a fifty year old man. planned parenthood is very kind. they do a lot more than just abortions. both of these situations are viewed as more acceptable for abortion. but i believe all situations are acceptable. no matter how old or young you are, what your health is, if you were raped or not, you should be able to decide what you want to do with your own body.

    I remember being younger working for Starbucks I ran a night shift. One of the girls on my shift had an abortion, against her families wishes. What bothered me the most is that my boss wouldn't allow me to let her stay home. She came to work and could barely walk. I let her sit at a table and she just cried. She had to show some paperwork to my boss, and it mentioned she had shingles in the past. My boss fired her for not divulging that info at hire. But to be honest I doubt that girl would have known to mention it. I just remember thinking that was disgusting treatment of a human during the hardest time of her life. Nothing I said mattered though, I was not well liked by my boss either.
    I later list my first baby to miscarriage and thought of that girl. It's a horribly lonely experience to birth death.

      @@alexusdumont951 That's why pro-life and pro-choice are really misleading terms. The terms really should be that you are for the legalization of abortion are you are against the legalization of abortion. I'm against the legalization of abortion - I think it's a crime against human rights, specifically the most basic right to live. However, I'm not against any person's right to choose what they do with their lives or bodies, although I recognize that choices necessarily have consequences, sometimes legal ones. That said, I also don't think that people who are for the legalization of abortion are fundamentally against life. I think their focus is more on the right of a woman to choose what she will do with her body. The only problem I have with their argument is that a woman's choice involves not simply her ORGANS but another human ORGANISM. As an analogy, I would say that I have the right to do whatever I want with my hands. I can use them to cook food, perform surgery, fix a car or anything else. But at the moment that what I choose to do with my hands harms someone else (like, perhaps using my hand to slap someone), the right to choose becomes problematic. As a note, I am a woman, so I do understand what a hard thing this is.

    Abortion is not fun. I'm pro-choice and even I know that. Nobody has an abortion because it's fun or because it's easy. It's not. But I believe that it's important to allow every single person to make their own decision on whether or not to have a baby. Sometimes it's the only option people feel they have.
    We don't force people to donate blood or organs to save people's lives because it's not legal or ethical to force someone to do that. We can't remove organs from people who have died to save someone else's life unless they had an organ donor card. It's illegal. Just think about that before sending this poor girl hate. You can see she didn't have the time of her life with this experience, nor was it something she did lightly.
    Pro-choice people are not for 'killing babies'. We're about allowing people to make decisions about their own body, which is how it should be. There are many people who are pro-choice who would never get an abortion themselves but still believe that other people should have a choice to choose differently from them.

    I'm an 80 year old man. My first wife had a baby "out of wedlock" as we used to say. We married and I adopted the child. A few years later she told me that she had wanted to abort the pregnancy but couldn't afford it. I really don't believe men should have a say in it one way or the other. It's a women's issue, but the laws prohibiting abortion are always passed by men. My child is now 58. This child is my best friend and closer to me than other children I have had. I have always been grateful the the child was not aborted, but I still believe that a woman has the right to safely do what is best for her. More women need to run for elective office so that they my have a voice that has to be heard in the legislative bodies. I also believe it is a mistake to allow each state to make up it's own rules. I wish the best to all and hope whatever decisions are made work out for the best.

      Robert Dennis I do not believe this is just a woman issue. I have two sons. My oldest son I became pregnant with at 17 years old. I did not want an abortion and very much wanted my child. Six months after having my son his father left me high and dry for another woman. It was hard. But I remarried and gave birth to my second son. I always talked honestly with my boys about safe sex and that I didn't want a teen pregnancy to happen in their lives because I knew how hard it is. They also know that I am pro life. My oldest son's girlfriend becomes pregnant at 17. He was so afraid to tell me that he ended up telling me through text while she was in her second trimester. I just texted him back an "ok" and then cried for them all night. That Sunday my husband and I told our pastor at church. He responded with, "I think it's great! You guys are going to be Grandparents!" At that point I decided not to feel sad for them but to focus on the baby and be excited for them. He is now 4 years old and has a little brother that is two and yes it's still hard for them and they do struggle financially but I am so very glad that she didn't abort and I help them as much as I possibly can. I also enjoy spoiling those babies every chance I get. I can't imagine life without them.

      +cazzawee No, it is not taking responsibility at all. Quite the opposite. Abortion is the action a woman or in some cases a decision a couple makes after they fuck and find out that suprisingly!(because shit what are the odds) they got pregant. They end up wanting to run away from taking responsibility of their actions. Every action has a consequence and theres no way one can justify the stupidity of not knowing the simple fact that putting sperm and eggs together via the action called SEX will result in the creation of a human life (basic ass biology - reproductive system). Aborting that human being's life is called ending a human being's life and ending a human being's life is called killing a human being and those who kill human beings are called killers. So women who abort are killers, like it or not thats a fact and facts regardless of the argument or excuse are immutable.

      Fun fact, We are ALL. a cluster of cells in all our stages of development. You are a bunch of cells does that mean you are not alive? Idiot. Living cells are alive. The offspring of a human being is a human being. You dont look like an infant today because you developed into whatever you are now, adult /teen? You lack bones that you had when you were an infant. Technically infants are not the same as adults or elders. Our bodies change. Blastocysts already have a mouth that connects to the anal. A BLASTOCYST. Lets not even talk about how fast a blastocyst turns into a fetus. Those are simply names to classify a stage of human development.
      So yes when she aborted her offspring was alive since the day she conceived.

    To hear this story it makes me relate to her and I understand her 100%.

Hopefully she gets over it, she's still in pain because it's not easy to forget about something like this. What I admire is the support of her mom... I am going through something similar, but my parents don't approve of the abortion, I'm not in a relationship with this guy and unfortunately he's not exalty what you would call daddy material. It kind of comforts me to hear talk about her experience because in a few weeks I could be going through the exact same thing. I really hope that it's all negative, but that won't save me... I'm afraid, I'm terrified, I'm lonely, I'm depressed and so many other emotions that I feel.

I do not agree with abortion but I do wrong things all the time and Jesus still chooses to forgive me. Jesus looked at the woman who was caught in adultery (which was a death penalty by public stoning at the time) and said, "He without sin cast the first stone."Not one was free from sin and no one is perfect today. He looked at her and said"where are your accusers?, and she replied there is none. and He said , "nor do I accuse you. Go and sin no more." Jesus loves you and is so do I. There is hope, redemption, forgiveness and healing through Jesus.
      John 3:16-17. For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

Also, these unwanted pregnancies are not always the result of "pleasurable" sex. again, the whole over simplification thing (if only this world was so easy, eh?)

    This video makes me so sad. I got pregnant at 17 (had my daughter at 18) and almost had an abortion. I went to the clinic, paid the fee, and then they told me that I needed to have an ultrasound beforehand. After that I just couldn’t go through with it. I told my boyfriend and he was surprisingly super supportive. So thankful we ended up keeping her because I can’t imagine life without her. I’m 28 now, and everything turned out ok for us thankfully, but I know that’s not always the case. So sorry you had to go through this.

Did you have a one night stand or something? Ending ones life is something you can never undo... Why would that be a better choice than the alternative, letting the person live? You're already a mother. You know a fetus is a person. You're not ignorant. Why would you choose to kill an innocent person?

    • @ramywiles
      @ramywiles 5 років тому +9

      Nat C I mean... adding a second child to the mix isn't something you should do lightly. It's not a question of convenience; it's a question of whether or not you can afford (physically, mentally, financially) to support not just one, but two tiny people who are dependent on you for literally everything. Or, if it's not that, it's a question of whether or not you can afford (physically, mentally, financially) to carry a second pregnancy to term while also going through everything involved in giving it up. Sometimes abortion is what's necessary and responsible to all parties involved, and that's fine.
      Also, if you're genuinely "just trying to understand"... using loaded language like "why would you choose to kill an innocent person" is a phrase that inherently casts judgment on someone's choice; you're no longer trying to understand them, you're just going after them. I'd suggest being careful with that kind of language.

A female that is looking at this option, she is scared, confused, and doesn't need all of that hellfire, damnation stuff. it is not an easy decision. It is scary. It is forever. You cannot ever take it back.
    I am not at all going to belittle her. She was young. I feel like she is hurting as she is talking about it. She needed more support.
    I noticed that she left a comment for someone on down and said that she is well. That is great.

      Hunter Clasen - True. They probably told her that at the clinic but I'm just assuming as it is different from one state to the next, one clinic to the next. Perhaps if someone has anxiety of doing a full 9 months, adoption might not sound so great either. Also, I bet some have a fear if they decide to carry out the term for adoption, they might even change their mind and feel obligated to keep the baby for themselves, which is a lot of anxiety if one is very young, unprepared emotionally, socially and economically for such a life changing event.

    I passed through it as well as you, just a year ago, I was just 16. I just gotta say that.. it’s definitely the most difficult decision I’ve ever done and I’m pretty sure the saddest in my life. Omg I can’t believe that I’ve did it, I can’t even realise at all at this point that actually happened. I was forced to did it even I don’t want it, the guy and I broke up just a month before I discover my pregnancy so he obviously don’t took the notice so good, I was so shocked, so angry and so sad, but the saddest thing was the way he treats me, was horrible; we dated by a year and he supposed to love me and in that bad times he acted like an asshole. When I went to the ultrasound I heard the heartbeats and I remember how my body get cold because I catch that my 6 weeks baby was alive! At that point I changed my mind, I wanna have my baby but I obviously haven’t the support I needed. Those days were terrible, I still remember it so fresh. Something incredible it’s that I don’t even find relief or peace after the abortion, I felt worst and worst...that was just the beginning of my forever pain. I cried so much, and i still do it, it was my baby, my kid, I would never know him/her or see it’s cutie face. At that moment my decision it’s going to define my life, sometimes I regret it but also my “relief” is that my angel is in a better place, it wasn’t my moment to became a mother, I was a 16 year old girl alone with none support so...
    My experience is been so sadly, Just a months ago i finally start learning how to handle it, comforting myself by the phrase “your baby isn’t suffering”
    I most say I’ve became a Stronger girl, I’ve forced myself to keep fighting, nobody is gonna take you out of pain so you only have yourself and you decide if you transform bad things that happened to a better change, or sank into the deep.
    I would keep in mind my baby forever, recently I tattooed the number of beats in the first ultrasound.
    Girl I just wanna say you’re such a good and stronger woman, only you know how much pain you felt and how difficult it was, but keep fighting and don’t give up, life has their painful moments but then you will find relief and happiness again.

      God that's so stupid. First, the idea that people who are opposed to abortion don't care about the welfare of children after they're born is just a ridiculous attempt to slander people you disagree with. What is it based on? As far as I can tell it's just based on the fact that the political party opposed to abortion is also the party that's for less government spending. That's it. Never mind that the people opposed to abortion also give more money to charity. All that matter is the tenuous political connection. Then you've got this idea, well If you save someone from being killed then you personally must ensure they live a happy life. What is that, some damn ancient proverb? If you save someone's life that doesn't mean that you owe them anything. Last year there were firefighters called to the apartment building I lived because of a fire. If they saved someone's life that night, did that make them responsible for the person they saved? It's a ridiculous idea. And then there's the idea that someone is better off dead rather than in a foster home! Well, I guess he's for emptying all the foster homes by executing the children. I mean if there better of dead, then it'd be a mercy killing, right? Also, the children in foster homes are NOT children who were given up for adoption when they were born. Advocates of abortion never seem to understand this. Kids end up in the foster system precisely because they were NOT available for adoption when they were a baby. There's actually far more demand than there is supply when it comes to adopting babies. That's why so many people are travelling to Korea and India just to find a baby to adopt. Jeez, what a bunch of nonsense.

    I went through a very similar situation. I had an abortion, but a medical one. I wish I did not have to make that choice, but I could not have been able to provide for my baby. I regret it, I miss being pregnant, I will never know their gender, I'll never see their face and I'll never be able to hold them in my arms. It was the hardest decision of my whole life and I don't know how I will ever get over it. But I also know that I could not have been able to give them the life they deserved. And I was also not willing to grow my baby inside of me for 9 months and then give them up.

      " And I was also not willing to grow my baby inside of me for 9 months and then give them up." Why not? How could killing the baby ever have been better than giving them up for adoption? If you had to change residences where you can have no pets, would you euthanize your pet or at the very least attempt to place it in a shelter? Most people would take the pet to a shelter and let it live , how much more should one do that with a human being. I am sorry to be so blunt but frankly you are still in denial and rationalizing what you did. "Only you know what's best for yourselves." No, I'm sorry God created humans and He understands what is best for us. That is why there is a prohibition against murder in the 10 commandments. I wish you no harm but you will never find peace until you realize what you have done and cry tears of repentance and call to God for forgiveness. I have a female relative that had an abortion in part because of the conniving of her husband and the gynecologist. She never acknowledged her part in what she did and has developed a fairly serious mental illness. I have another friend who had an abortion, after some years of having no peace she repented and spends her Saturdays in front of Planned Parenthood begging women not to go through with their scheduled abortions. She has peace and forgiveness and she wants to prevent women from going through the hell she went through. Now she has the satisfaction that dozens of beloved children are alive and loved by their parents either biological or adoptive because of her counsel. Unfortunately that one child died but God has prevented the lives of dozens from being lost through her.

      Lola Hart mind your own then 😂. You should never be proud that you’re pregnant at 14. You just ruined your life, and that parasites life as well. You’re going to struggle the rest of your miserable life trying to raise a parasite.

    Thank you for sharing, this is so traumatic for women, those men are dicks. I broke up with a guy because he made his ex-girlfriend do such a thing ( and they were in their 30s), don't be with a guy who's heartless to his own baby

    I almost went through with one, I was 16.. I was scared I wanted to run away but God helped me and now I have a beautiful son he's just turned 3 years old. He's an absolute blessing. I'm not here to judge you. But I hope God heals your heart. Ask him for help and he will forgive you. Your baby is watching over you from heaven and knows why you did what you did. Although there's no excuse for taking the life of the unborn I understand your pain. God is amazing and he will help you he will not fail you and he will forgive you. Give your baby a name. Talk to him. The baby loves you and you will meet him one day. Don't use a permanent solution for a temporary "problem" I'm saying this with love. God bless you ♥️♥️♥️

      She did not make the decision to have a baby she made the decision to have an orgasm. Of course she took the easy road. She took contraceptives and they failed. All temporary contraceptives on the market are not 100%, this is common knowledge. We live in a time where people have sex before they marry and have multiple sexual partners throughout their lives. On average a portion of a population WILL be in her shoes. Why do you think she should deserves to submit her life to carrying all that extra weight shoulders. when she's only starting college. Because the contraceptives she took fucked up? And if you feel that bad about it enough to have to comment, then so be it but who the fuck are you to judge.

    • @Tekton177
      @Tekton177 7 років тому +5

      BudSmoke37 what if next time not only does her contraceptives fail but she catches AIDS from one of her multiple sex partners, will her orgasm have been worth it? Women who had sex with multiple partners used to be called Whores.

    I've never left a comment on UA-cam before, but I had to tell you how important this video is. When I terminated my pregnancy two years ago, I had such a hard time finding unbiased information, and felt so alone and scared. Even watching this now after the fact is comforting, being able to listen to someone who went through the same emotions that I did. Thank you for your bravery.

    I was 14 when I got an abortion back in 2007. I was young and dumb and the guy I was dating was abusive and controlling, which was a huge factor. It was a scary process and I am forever thankful my mom saw me through and to this day, never made me feel bad about my decision. I remember waiting in the room all day, and this one girl about my age was there too, and her mom kept making remarks about “I can’t believe I had to take a day off work and bring your dumb ass down here.” I can’t imagine what that girl felt either, and I think of her often. My thoughts are with you wherever you are these days, and I fully support your decision and your story. Thank you for sharing, bc especially these days there needs to be more openness about it.

    As someone who is Pro-Life... I am glad you were in a nice facility to be taken care of....
    Imagine this girl as your daughter, and she is going to go through with terminating her pregnancy... No matter your beliefs, would you rather have a nice clean sterile facility with doctors and staff on hand to handle anything that might go wrong, and live another day....
    or....
    If there were no abortion clinics.... and your daughter is going through with an abortion, this puts her in a very risky situation of a room in a house or hotel, or even the back of a van, where it's done quickly, and if something were to go wrong, they would abandon her for fear of getting caught....
    These scenario's right here are why I don not wish abortion clinics to be closed down, no matter how pro-life I am....

    • @ramywiles
      @ramywiles 6 років тому +23

      This is EXACTLY it, because no matter how effectively we work to reduce abortion, all we can ever do is reduce it. We can't eliminate it. People who don't want to be pregnant will seek out the means to end their pregnancies, and they deserve to be able to do so safely and legally. If we remove that resource, we put more women at risk of dying, and that's not something I'm ok with. (I'm pro choice to begin with, but this particular point is at the core of my own arguments.)

    • @kwpp7

      You're not pro-life at all. I couldn't care less about the health and security of the executioner. So you have no problem with babies being torn apart and thrown into the garbage, so long as it is done properly and nicely. Where is your compassion towards the REAL victim of abortion? Oh yeah, you don't have any. Because you're cold-hearted but dress it up as "compassion." I see right through your bullshit.
