I totally agree with Melinda,God does not tolerate muder, and aabortion is child murder.Think of all those childless parents who would want a baby so bad,and here are kids having sex for entertainment, and having abortion.Okay do you see the right in that? I don't.Thats why God intended sex for marriage.May God bless all those that are pregnant and keep the baby,for it is a precious gift,not all can have.

I would still think it would take alot of thought! I have a 16 year old son and I know if he came home and told me his girlfriend was pregnant and it was too late for an abortion and she was putting the child up for adoption I would take and raise my grand child myself! Teen Pregnancy is soooo sooooo rough on mother as well as baby! The younger- say 13- she has her whole life ahead of her and a baby would be be a big burden on mom as well as baby and it would be better off with a loving couple- family if u can! If the girl chooses to have an abortion- thats her right-its her body. I couldnt do it but I dont tell others what is right for them either! Whjats good for me may not be good for them. Rape- thats different for me. I dont think I could go thru with the pregnancy- or could i????? Its up to each woman to do what is best in their life!

It depends on the circumstances. I am would say first and for most that I don't think it is right to get an aboration, but it is not my place to judge. If a girl gets raped I can see the girl might want to get an abortion, but there are so many people out in the world that cannot have kids and would love the baby to the ends of the earth. But if the girl has sex with her boyfriend and doesn't protect herself then no I don't think it is right. They are still human no matter what science or the government says. If teens are to immature to deal with the outcome of having sex then they shouldn't have sex!

I think it's up to any person who gets pregnant to decide and i'm curious do you think that it's right for women over 18 just because they are over 18?? Would you rather a 13 yr old be a mother??

No the teens aren't right, women in their 20's aren't right and women of older age aren't right to get an abortion done.
Everyone knows that sex can lead to pregnancy. We are put on this earth to live and reproduce. Sex is not meant for just man's pleasure alone.
America has been using abortion as a form of birth control for too long. It is ridiculously disgusting and cold hearted. Go to the website abort73.com and read the information on there.
Under no circumstances whatsoever, is abortion justifiable.
There are plenty of men and women who can't concieve and that would love to adopt a non-aborted child. We are all here because our mothers made the decision to let us live. We too, should show that same love and respect for God's creation. Afterall, He is the giver of life.
Source(s): Proverbs 6:16-19 There are six things the Lord hates--no, seven things he detests. haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that kill the innocent, a heart that plots evil, feet that race to do wrong, a false witness who pours out lies, a person who sows discord among brothers. - 1 decade ago
I don;t think anyone should get an abortion. It is wrong. If god wants you to have a child then you will. If you are unable to take care of it then let someone adopt it that can take care of it. That would be the right way to do it. It isn't right to have an abortion.

I think it is absolutely wrong. I do not believe abortion should be legal, and if a teenager or anyone gets pregnant and doesn't want a child or can't take care of a child, to give the baby up for adoption.

A lot depends on the circumstances from which the pregnancy occurred (incest, rape), the age. The mental health, physical health, and welfare of the mother-to-be should be considered as well. No, I do not believe in abortion and think that all possible avenues should be considered before undergoing a procedure which would forever alter your life and rob the world of a child who could possibly bring so much into this world of ours.

No teens should not get abortions...they should not have sex if they do not want to have babies. They are just children themselves. That is why parents and adults enforce to teens to not have sex because they are not mature or responsible to engage in adult activities.
If a teenage girl can lay down and have sex then by all means she can deal with the fact that sex leads to babies and have that baby just like any other female on this earth can. If she does not want to have any babies then she needs to keep her legs CLOSED till she is a grown woman...plain and simple.

Yes. Defineately. They are in no physical or emotional condition to be carrying a child, giving birth to a child, and raising a child.
Abortion is right for anybody who wants and/or needs one but especially for teens. Everybody under 20 should get an abortion.
