re: Lower abortion limit

Quoting FroggysMommy:" I have an 8 year old daughter. Love her to death. I had an abortion AFTER her. Again, order makes no difference."

IMO, that's disgusting. I would hate myself if I got an abortion, especially for selfish reasons.

Quoting Kelly&Coralie:" They aren't babies. They are clumps of cells more akin to cancer or a parasite. agree to disagree I guess"

We are all just a clump of cells..

Quoting TheNuge:" <blockquote><b>Quoting FroggysMommy:</b>" You know what also bugs me? The fact that ... [snip!] ... it.... yet they charge out the ass for abortion. It's asinine."</blockquote> What amount do you think is expensive?"

They wanted to charge something like 650 bucks for the pill. That's insane. If you can't afford a child, what makes someone think you can afford 650 bucks? I did get a reduced price though.

And you can also get the pill online for like 75 bucks. The inflation is asinine.

Quoting Smartass *TNTC*:" Well it is a medical proceedure and taking that into consideration, I do not think abortions are THAT ... [snip!] ... is SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper than having a child. Not to mention if they were $50 a lot of women wouldn't even use birth control."

If you can't afford a child in the first place, how can you afford a pill that may mean you dont pay rent? The longer it takes for someone to get that money the longer that child is going to be in there. So thats again, why later abortions happen. Trying to get the money in the first place.

Quoting Kelly&Coralie:" And you shouldn't be forced to carry a child you don't want becasue you cannot afford to terminate. ... [snip!] ... help with the cost so I don't know what is out there right now) if anything, it should be income based, or on a sliding scale."

There are organizations that help fund abortions and it pretty much goes on a sliding scale. You answer some questions, they decide how much you need to pay.

Quoting Back to Noob Status:" You think 98 dollars for an abortion is expensive? WTF?"

When that is all you have in your bank account, yes.

Quoting Yurvette [♥]:" When that is all you have in your bank account, yes. "

I'm speechless.

Quoting FroggysMommy:" I have an 8 year old daughter. Love her to death. I had an abortion AFTER her. Again, order makes no difference."

I totally agree.

Quoting TheNuge:" I'm speechless."

what about?

I was in a horrible place in 2011 when I got pregnant. I was willing to do payment plans to pay it off but they wouldnt let me. The "father" didnt want to help because he was pro life, and my mom didnt have any money to help me. It was a mess.

Quoting Becky☮Will:" IMO, that's disgusting. I would hate myself if I got an abortion, especially for selfish reasons. "

LOL Okay, you think that. I was doing what was best for my child, and my unborn child. When you are on a ton of medication that will hurt a childs development in utero and the fact that if you DIDNT have an abortion, you could get sicker and die and your child would go to the father that tried to kidnap her and has never done smurf for her.... then yeah, Ill abort a fetus every smurfing day if I have to in order to protect my child. And, to not have a drug addicted baby.

So it may be "disgusting" to you, but I love my child that is already here more than an unborn child that could cause me to leave my daughter without her mother.
I don't hate myself for my abortion either. I know I made the right decision.

So as "disgusting" as it may be to you, it's more disgusting to me that people think they have the right to control others bodies. Would you like it if there was a law passed that you must submit to your husband and if he wants sex, he can have the full right to rape you if you dont want to have sex? Letting him have control over your body just because he is married to you? I don't think you'd like that, you still have the choice to say no. Just like I have the choice to say no and not have a child in me that I don't want.

If you want a abortion..then go clean houses, wash cars, babysit, etc..Kind of like when women decide to keep the baby and make the father pay CS even though he cant affor it. What is it that women say " well he better find a job, go mow a yard do something"! Well 18 years is hella of alot more then an abortion. I dont see men crying to the Government to pay their CS when they didnt want the kid. They tell men to take responsibility, but yet women have none.

omg. I wish you were aroudn to give me this answer a year and a half ago when I didnt have the money. Because that is an answer.

Im sorry, but there are no jobs around here. Nor are their kids, nor are people stupid enough to trust a random woman to clean their house...

And I also think that if a woman decides to have a child and the man doesnt want it, he should be able to sign over his rights and not pay. No man should be forced into parenthood, just as no woman should be forced to carry a child she doesnt want.

I only WISH the state allowed my ex to sign over his rights. They don't allow it, and it's sickening.

How much was an abortion?

Quoting TheNuge:" How much was an abortion?"

org. it was 350.. but with the funding that I found it was 98.

But I also had a son that kept getting sick so I had to pay 10 co pays so... I had to have some money, and my ex was refusing to give me money because he knew that we were going to court so he didnt feel it nessisary to give me any money until he was required to.
