Forced choices👶🏽💔
I’m 19 years old, in college, and pregnant. The dad, and my family are very supportive, but they each have their own opinions. For instance, my mom, and my middle sister both want me to get an abortion, and anytime I try to give a reason to keep the baby, the tear it down. It’s almost like they are shoving the abortion pill down my throat, and I feel as though I have no choice. My oldest sister, however, is strict on keeping the baby. She gets mad even at the mention of an abortion, and I feel that she’d be heartbroken if I did it. As you can see, I’m torn between the two. My heart tells me to keep it, but my brain tells me to not to. And to make matters worse, this was the fortune I just opened....
I just wanted opinions from the outside ladies on what you would do in this situation.

First off, thank you to each and every person who gave me insights, and different perspectives of this situation❤️ I am truly grateful, and wish that I could thank each of you ladies personally face to face. With that being said, it is also a lot of unanswered questions that I want to give to you ladies😂.... so first, the dad is typical. He claims that he will be here, but his actions change everyday. I was raised strictly to be independent, so it doesn’t bother me that he’s this way, because I prepared myself for it (my own dad did it to me, and I turned out fine😉).... He will not tell his mom because she is very strict and will make him stand up and be a dad. My mom these past few days has been solely supportive on the idea of an abortion, and so is my middle sister, but my mom realized today from a close friend that she can’t force her own opinions on me, or only support one decision. She had an abortion, and remembered how she felt when wanted her to abort the child, and doesn’t want me to resent her for choosing abortion when I’m feeling forced. My middle sister hasn’t changed her decision, but my oldest is okay with the idea of abortion as long as it’s my decision, and not my moms or my sisters. Thank you ladies again for your helpful insights, and I would gladly answer any questions each of you may have💖💛
