    I would tell my son that if she does not agree with him on abortion then she is not the one for him. Also let him know that if he keeps talking about this topic it means he is bothered by it. If he is bothered by it it means he should not be with her. Ask him if he could ever see himself marrying a girl who thought it was okay to have an abortion? If he says no then he should dump this girl. If he keeps talking about the topic tell him I am sorry but I cannot give you any more advice because you will not listen to what I have already told you.

    I also believe it is wrong and I think it speaks volumes about her morale and how it differs from his ideas of what is right. Either he can brush this off and let it go, or he needs to leave her. What if she gets pregnant and has an abortion? He wouldn't be able to stand it. And chances are they are sleeping together right? So theres quite a big chance thats a problem they might have one day. And his child will be literally slaughtered by this uneducated piece of crap of a girlfriend.

    Theres a video link on youtube. It was a little blurry but you can find other copies of it online. Make your sons gf watch that video. If she can still say abortion is ok when shes done watching it, he needs to leave the cold and heartless piece of crap.

    Well, Your son shouldn't even be dating someone who doesnt view the same opinions as he. Its ok to have different views, but an abortion is a very big deal, as a mom i think you have to tell him to find another person he can trust/love. This person he could be dating can/maybe will have an influence on him some how....so I suggest that you may advise him to find other suitable ladies.

    As long as they use protection until they plan to have a baby this should not be an issue. She has her opinion, he has his. It will only be a problem is she gets pregnant and wants an abortion and he wants the baby. If he can't accept her with her opinion he needs to move on.

    If he needs to ask his mother how to handle his relationship, he's not mature enough to have one.

    If their disagreement on one thing is causing so much trouble, maybe they shouldn't be together. If they can get past it because they truly care about each other, then they should.

    If he believes that it's okay, then it's his beliefs, I'm sure he's old enough to believe in what he wants. You can't control his beliefs and religion.
