This is an old story but it has always had me curious if it was true http://www.openentrance.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/02/amani-toomer.jpg http://www.nypost.com/seven/02282007/news/regionalnews/its_toomsday_regionalnews_jeane_macintosh.htm What would propel a woman to have an abortion if she was married and financially secure? Is there something about the guy that she can't trust...maybe a sense of maturity that he doesn't have? I remember rocker Tommy Lee detailed in his book that the years he was married to Heather Locklear that he always wanted children but they never had any. When Tommy and Heather divorced..Heather married Richie Sambora of Bon Jovi and had a little girl. Tommy admitted he was hurt since the fact Heather had children with Ritchie but not with him. Women, please chime in, I'm very curious about this one.
Its never something ive had to do, but i dont disagree with abortion, think of women that are Raped or cant give a child a decent life. Maybe she just knew she didnt want to be tied to him for life by a child, when you have a child with someone its a whole new step on top of marriage, ie you are never gonna be able to shift that person from your orbit forever !!!! so maybe shes just doing a better job of getting it right. What i do hate about abortion is those who use it as a form of contraception and give it little thought when they have multiple abortions :???:
I hate the title of this thread, like reproduction constitutes a proprietary relationship with a single owner. It's no one's business if she had four or no abortions, the decision is hers.
That is a complicated matter... I can understand getting an abortion is the mother's life or child's life is in danger, or the child will have a less than happy existence. Maybe wives do it to punish husbands...maybe he was unfaithful or maybe she decided that she didn't want to bring his child into the world knowing there would be a connection to him for the rest of her life...both of these are incredible selfish. but we are human, and we were given volition...

"Maybe wives do it to punish husbands...maybe he was unfaithful or maybe she decided that she didn't want to bring his child into the world knowing there would be a connection to him for the rest of her life...both of these are incredible selfish." Punish their husbands for being unfaithful? that one's interesting. Funny,when I read the story , it seem like 'ol girl was afraid she would give birth to the spawn of Satan. By her appearance , she doesn't come off as a "trophy " wife or superficial like a lot of athletes marry.
Everyone who has an abortion does so because she has the full right. The only explanation she owes is to her husband.
The question is why would a man stay with a woman who aborted 3 of his chilren? I hate abortion, but unfortuneatly the law allows her the privelage to do so with or without his consent. So what Mosk said is very true. I personally know 2 ladies who aborted their husbands children, and one who aborted a child from her fiance, all 3 relationships ended badly. I think such an act is a symptom of a much deeper problem in the relationship.
I'm against abortion but I don't think it should be outlawed (nanny state and all that jazz). Partial birth should be illegal for sure though. I feel bad for the the guy. I know a guy whos gf told him he was going to be a daddy then aborted the baby. He still isn't over it.
But in this case he knew her history of 3 previous abortions. I don't feel the least bit sorry for him, he knew where he was planting his seed.
Yep, you're right. I don't know how she can live with herself after aborting 3 of her kids, she'll be lucky if she can even have kids. People need to learn to use contraception unless you're willing to accept the consequences.
Its better for some women to abort, than have babies when enduring apparent unreadiness/laziness Motherhood is a full time job(career-lifestyle) you should know this better than anybody. So if the girl feels she lacks dedication to raise a kid, she shouldnt have it.......thats really all there is to it If she was stupid enough to have sex unprotectedly, you should NOT let the kid pay/suffer for her misdeeds. Let her abort and suffer by herself
Do you not think DEATH is paying/suffering for her misdeeds? Funny how you would be more protective of the rights of some terrorist than those of an unborn infant who has no possible way of defending themselves. If she doesn't want to be a mother she can adopt the child out.
If a woman is raped (morning after pill) or isn't ready for a child, there's adoption. If a woman just isn't ready for a child, then she should not have sex. I don't think she should be able to end another being's life because of her dumbass mistake.
