Abortion

[DauphineMarie]

I also am regretfully joining in with this argument, but I just need to say a woman's choice to have an abortion should always be her choice. For any reason, regardless of her circle of influence, she should not have to feel like she's making the wrong decision. Because whether or not for selfish reasons, if she feels like she has to have an abortion, nobody should stop her. Denying someone that choice, in my opinion, is as damaging as denying a child a life. Because as many of you have pointed out, the amount of drugs and things happening at that time would not have ended well for her child, and as Stevie has said, she couldn't have been around enough to be a proper mother, like she would have wanted. I think when Stevie made the decision, it was for selfish reasons, but also for the health, safety, and well-being of her child. I think she realized that if she were to bring a child into the world, both she and her child could not have lived the lives they wanted to live. And as poetic as Stevie is, her music embodies that choice; her child is the "poet in her heart", that never changes and never stops, but is now gone. It doesn't matter what for, but when he builds that house, she's ready to move on with her life, but with her unborn child, a part of it.

Regardless of personal opinion, nothing is stronger than a mum's love, and though in a perfect world no child would have to be aborted, this is not a perfect world, and choices are made that will be regretted. And choices will be made that will be cherished forever. That choice, though, is not anyone's business, nor should it ever be.
