What would your say if your mother told you to abort your baby?

I called my mother and told her I was pregnant last weekend. She asked me if I had told my husband yet. Of COURSE I told my husband. She said that I was stupid for telling him and that I should have just gotten an abortion. I didn't know what to say. I'm married and I'm well old enough to make my own decisions! What would you say to her? I don't even know how to respond anymore. Thanks!

    You're right. You're old enough to make your own decisions. Don't ever let someone tell you what to do when it comes to something like that. You need to tell your mom that you don't appreciate what she said and that she needs to keep those kinds of comments to herself and if she doesn't then you won't talk to her until she can control herself. She should be excited to be having a grandbaby. As long as you and your husband are happy that is all that matters. Hope it all works out for you.

    Wow, did you ask her to expand on that comment and why she would think that an abortion whould be your best option? I would. Does she have issues with your husband? Do you have other children and going through financial dificulties? There has to be an explanation of why she feels this way. Ask her and see what she says. If you disagree with her answer I would tell her why you disagree and maybe even detach from her all together. Your baby was made out of love and you will always love your baby if she disagrees then she shouldn't be aloud the benefits of being a grandmother.
