I am a strong believer in pro-choice to all women. As a young mother I was put in a position of whether or not to keep my child at such a young age. There were pros and cons to both decisions. If I kept the baby I would be a young teen mom, unwed, and with no job or education to take me far in life. On the other hand if I aborted my baby, I could still be a kid not raising my own kid. I ultimately made the decision to keep my child and finish school. I find that having an education can potentially take me to my dreams. It’s twice as hard if not more to raise a child, attend the university full time and keep a full time job. But it is completely worth it.
It makes me so mad to listen to protestors talk about a abortions. Trust me, If you have not been put in the situation then most of you have no right to comment on the subject. What if a girl was raped by her father, or mom’s boyfriend? Would you want that girl to go through with the pregnancy and give that child a miserable upbringing? Don’t get me wrong, I don’t see abortion as a method of birth control. But there are females out there that just are not ready to raise a child. People make mistakes and we live with them. But there is no mistake about giving a women the right to decide whether or not she is able to take on the biggest responsibility there is which is being a mother.

I'm just kind of curious to see your take on adoption. I'm not sure of the statistics of kids that are in the revolving system of foster care, and exactly how many kids get adopted in the U.S. I know that there has been an increasing amount of adoptions being handled outside of U.S. borders, which affects the children here. I was just wondering what your opinion was.
