Abortion: An Awful Thing


Abortion is alright they all say. Killing innocent babies is okay. The baby could find a cure for cancer or be a president. But no, their soon to be mother isn't hesitant. I made a mistake; I can't give it good care. But many other couples could, it just isn't fair. She says this is the only way. You made the mistake but the baby is the one to pay. "I love you mommy," the child would say. Too bad you will never see that day.
