Am I wrong?

I have a child who is expecting. The child is of age. Has a significant other and they are thinking about abortion. I personally do not believe in abortion, however I do believe a person should have the right to decide what is right for them. Well until now. I have pleaded with them not to have an abortion. My husband and I are willing to let them live in our home, which they would have their own apartment, rent free, sdo the can attend college and work wiothou having to pay bills. We are willing to babysit and provide any way we can until they can get on their feet. The biggest reaason for the abortion is that they want to go to school and have careers, My husband and I want that for them too. We want the best for our children and grand children. This would be my first grandbaby and I maybe selfish but I do not want them to terminate the pregnancy. Any comments would be great.

Not sure if this is appropriate for the forum.. but I think it should be their choice. You've said how you feel about it, so I'd just step back and let them do what they decide.

I realize you are new but this is not the place for your post. Also, its not your choice.

I think you should respect their decision and stop pleading with them to keep it. Whatever try chose is te best decision for them. It's not about you

Quoting Vindictive:" Not sure if this is appropriate for the forum.. but I think it should be their choice. You've said how you feel about it, so I'd just step back and let them do what they decide."

I agree with this. It's their choice and you should let them decide for themselves.

It's their choice. Your not the one who would have to deal with the baby 24/7. It's theirs.

It's not your body, pregnancy, or life. If they are comfortable choosing abortion do they can make their life what they want it to be before becoming parents that is their choice. Don't make them feel bad about the decision, help them to move forward and be successful.
No matter how much help you have, having a child before you're ready and established in your own life is hard and they might not be ready or willing to make the sacrifices they would need to in order to raise a child. And that's ok. Just support you child in whatever he decides to do.

It's not your body, not your decision. They are fully capable of making this decision themselves, you need to respect that and let them do what they feel is right. Don't make them feel bad, they are thinking about their futures and don't want to have a child that their parents will have to provide for. They're being smart.

Its not your business. This is your child. Instead of trying to talk her out of HER decisions, why don't you be there for her? Abortion isn't an easy decision, she has enough on her plate as it is.

Your daughter made one grown up decision, now let her make another. You don't want to push her into keeping a pregnancy she does not want and then having a child she resents.

I guess she didnt like the truth. That it's not her choice.

sorry to say, but, you pretty much have no voice when it comes to THEIR child.

I think you are being selfish, sorry.
Good for your daughter and her SO to want to have careers before having a child.

I think it would be hard to be in that situation. Being the grandma and watching your child make decisions you might not agree with.

Ultimately they will be raising this child. They will be waking up in the middle of the night. If I had a dollar for every time I heard someone's parents made them an empty promise of helping them raise their kid, I'd be rich. I know it's hard for you, but it's hard for her more. Let her make her decision and support her in any way you can. I hope it works out for you both.

It's not even her daughter who is pregnant. It's her son's girlfriend. I'm sorry lad but you have absolutely no say in this situation. Zero.
