Why is everyone still making this out to be, "abort the baby vs. give up your entire life to take a crap job in po-dunk west virginia"
HELLO. There are people willing to raise the freaking kid if you don't want it. You really don't have to kill it, I promise. Is filling out the legal paperwork that scary? It might take some time out of your busy schedule? Is she afraid of being fat for the last 2 months of the pregnancy, or does she just really want to be free to drink and smoke pot for the next 8 months? wtf?

Are you for serious? You realize the lasting emotional effects that giving a kid up for adoption will have on the mother? You think it's just a matter of her being fat' for the next 8 months? It's a huge commitment.

I don't understand how giving a kid up for adoption would lead to larger emotional scars than having an abortion. I've never gone through either situation, so I obviously can't know for sure, but I'd rather bring the kid into the world and give it to a family that desperately wants a child.

Maybe you're right. But I know a woman who gave her kid up for adoption and she's been racked with guilt ever since. Then again, I'm sure she'd feel at least as much guilt if she had an abortion. It comes down to a matter of personal choice.
