So I saw this stupid bumper sticker today, on the car parked next to us. It said : "Smile! Your mom chose LIFE!"It's a pro-life sticker. I don't understand this, either this person is just stupid or doesn't understand that not every woman has the option to choose life or abortion.
I hate to assume, but it honestly seemed like they were the type of person who thinks that adoption is the answer to everything. Don't want a child? Put them up for adoption!
Little do they know that just because you put your child up for adoption, doesn't mean they'll be adopted. It seems like most of the kids who are adopted are from foreign countries (just going by what I see). Not that it's a bad thing, I am thinking of the children here, but you just don't see people adopting kids from the US.
Anyway, after I read the sticker, I thought to myself, "the only reason I'm still here is because my mother didn't know she was pregnant until 5 months in, so it was too late to terminate me."
Stupid sticker.
Not that my mom didn't want or love me, but it just shows how un-knowledgeable some people are. Just because I'm here doesn't mean my mom wanted to have me. I was an accident, unplanned, a surprise, call it what you want, but my mom didn't want me, she only wanted me when she knew I was there.
hahah agreed lol
ReplyDeleteAhh that bumper sticker sucks. I didn't bother doing a post on abortion because it's such a tender topic lol. I could never be a journalist. XD
ReplyDeleteBut, yeah, what if the girl was raped? Then adoption would suck too. Because the girl would know that her child is out there somewhere and it's the product of rape. o.O
I'm very pro-abortion, since you're not "saving a life" by putting a child in an adoption center where they may be underfed and abused.
ReplyDeleteAnd that child will more likely be a criminal because of it's bad upbringing.
But that's my theory. =]
Lol I'm just "pro choice." I'm not FOR abortion, but if it must be done, then so do it. There's too many exceptions to take away the option of aborting.
ReplyDeleteI'd have to agree with you, though, many kids who go into adoption agencies and foster homes, etc, have anger and trust issues. It's hard to fix, too. Not everyone who adopts is a bad parent, but the kids here in the US aren't paid much attention to as needy kids in foreign countries, and it's sad, since they need just as much attention as other kids.
this topic seems sensitive,but there should be general debate on it
ReplyDeleteThere's always debates on abortion. I wasn't really aiming the post to be about it, just the sticker and the ignorance of some pro-life people.
