final project

Since having a baby is not easy at all, many teen moms struggle with choosing the options of having an abortion or having an adoption.  If I was a teen mom I would pick neither of these two. I think if you’re responsible enough to have sex then you’re responsible enough to have a baby. Yes having a baby is a very expensive thing to do, but why kill a baby in your body that did nothing to you? You’re the one that created it and I think it should be alive, and not die because of a stupid mistake the parents made.  But to other people they think they should kill their baby, because they are not ready yet or don’t want it to ruin her body. Being pregnant at such a young age you are risking a lot. In other words, either way the mom chooses, is going to be very expensive to her and there’s no other way around it. If a teen mom had the choice between abortion and adoption and excluded keeping the baby they should choose adoption because they are rather saving an innocent life instead of killing it. There are many similarities and differences to adoption and abortion. Some similarities are you can live independently, you will not have to parent prematurely, you can pursue earlier goals, if you’re a teenager you can resume your youthful lifestyle. Even though these are positive things there is still a very large negative feeling behind both of these options. Some differences between abortion and adoption are in adoption your pregnancy ends in giving birth and in abortion your pregnancy ends with death. Also in adoption you will remember giving birth and in abortion you will remember taking a life. Both of these choices are very painful and I think teen moms should really think hard before making any decisions. Some teen moms just jump right into the decision without giving any thought. Being pregnant and going through this process will most likely leave a huge hole in their heart if they choose abortion or adoption. I think teen moms should choose very wisely.
