Pro life – A Baby In The Womb is Alive and A Life

Pro Life – A Baby In The Womb is Alive and A Life Do your children know what “pro choice” means? At what age will you choose to explain to your child, teen or young adult daughter that she has the legal right to kill her baby growing in her tummy? What reasons will you offer your child, boy or girl, if asked, “Why would a mom want to kill her baby?” Perhaps your conversation might go something like this. “Sometimes the mom doesn’t love the dad. She might feel like she doesn’t have enough money or wants to finish school. She may not want to get tied down or doesn’t want her parents to know she was having sex before marriage. Another may feel if she killed her baby it would make everything all better.” Are you prepared for these questions: “Did you think about killing me?” “Did you ever abort a child?” “Would you be mad if I killed my baby?” “How many times can I do it?” On January 8, 2013 the Guttmacher Institute at www.guttmacher.org published that by age 45, half of all women will have an unplanned pregnancy. Nearly 1 in 3 will have an abortion. Why would so many women not want their babies to live? Unplanned pregnancy will dramatically, emotionally, and financially change many lives within the family unit. This may account for the fact that many single adult females and especially minors harbor this secret and/or are weary about coming to their family with the news of an unplanned pregnancy. Females and males must be educated at home about respecting the human body before marriage, the value of human life and that sex can result in the consummation of life. Period. Parents must teach their children that sex should be reserved for the special relationship between husband and wife, and together they may choose to start a family. Parents must work to build a trusting relationship with their children so that a child would feel comforted enough to know that they could come to their parents to talk about anything. All does not die after the abortion of a baby, the grief felt by the mother lives on for many years. There have been females who have stated, “If someone would have just told me not to do it, I probably would never have done it.” The act of sex is often used to satisfy a need in adolescence to build self confidence, to feel an emotional connection to someone, or perhaps used to shield a hurt from the past that is so deep it may be psychologically unrealized. Is there a valid justifiable reason a female should opt for death of a child living in her womb? Isn’t it time society aborts the cultural views of abortion as a political and legal issue. No matter what the law says, a baby in the womb is alive, a life, and a gift from God.
