A pregnant woman has challenged pro life activists to pay her $1 million to keep her baby.

In an anonymous essay titled 'How much would you pay to stop an abortion?', the writer claims she is 26 years old, seven weeks pregnant, with every intention of aborting her fetus.

But if she receives $1 million in 72 hours she will allegedly have the baby, put it up for adoption, and put every cent into a trust fund for the child to access at 21.

Otherwise, every donation will be returned and she will go through with the abortion she has scheduled for July 10.

Donations will be accepted from midnight July 7.

Writing one-page website called prolifeantiwoman.com, the woman says the rallying cry is a protest against 'extremely restrictive abortion laws' recently passed in the state where she attends graduate school. 

The laws, she writes, require women to wait 72 hours after a doctor consultation to have an abortion.

North Carolina became the fourth state to assume a law of that nature last month, following Missouri, South Dakota, and Utah.

She continues: The laws 'impose unnecessary waiting time to get an abortion and attempt to enforce rules that bypass the doctor/patient privacy privilege.

'I now feel more comfortable traveling to my home state to get an abortion than I do trying to get one here.'

The essay concludes: 'I hope to give the American public a concrete example that the conservative right in America doesn't actually care about the life of a child, they care about controlling the lives and choices of women. We have to acknowledge this and we have to stop it.' 

 

The Mail could not immediately verify the validity of the site or the facts stated.

In the essay, the writer stipulates: 'I will do my best to remain anonymous in this process as what I aim to prove has nothing to do with me personally.'

Reaction online has been mixed.

Critics have questioned the validity of the anonymous writers point, and one Twitter user wrote: 'How much do you love your unborn child? Not very much considering you are holding it for ransom.'

Another, however, has tweeted: 'This is... brave and amazing.'

Well, what a nice legacy to her own child, flesh and blood. If she keeps her child, she can tell him/her that she held her own child's life for ransom.

This is worse than the sister of the Charleston SC shooter starting a Go Fund me account because her wedding had to be postponed.

I'm sorry, she should be in jail. I know abortion is legal but she is extortion her own baby for money. This is wrong and I feel sorry for the innocent baby. This will come back and bite her if not now but in the future.

She said that she would put the money in a trust fund for the child and put him/her up for adoption. Why not just put him up for adoption anyway :(

Yes, because I am totally going to believe an anonymous person on the internet will put the money in a trust and not touch a cent of it. Riiiiiiiight.
What a twisted person. If you want an abortion, by all means have one, but this is twisted and wrong.

What a sorry piece of crap this person is.

This excuse for a human should be in protective custody and that baby should be taken at birth.

Trash. Total trash.

Disgusting. I'm so tired of women failing to make the choice to NOT be pregnant BEFORE pregnancy. Personal responsibility.

If she really is pregnant, she must be so proud of herself for displaying such coldhearted callousness. I feel sorry for that baby.

What a vile excuse for a woman and human being in general.

Why doesn't a grad student know how to use protection?

I have terrible thoughts about how to rid the planet of this vile human.

This is beyond disgusting. I don't know that there is a word that describes the level of depravity exhibited by this woman.

Fight the anti-choice crowd if you like, but do it in a reasonable manner.

 Why do you assume she doesn't know how or that she wasn't using it? You yourself said you took BC pills and got pregnant even though you took them exactly as directed. Why do you assume she didn't? 

 

I think she is a horrid person and I don't agree with her at all. But I think it's awfully easy to dismiss her as being careless with her BC when the fact is, several of us here got pregnant using BC exactly as directed. The truth about how she got pregnant is probably much more nuanced than "she is an idiot grad student who didn't take responsibility for her body".

 Because that would be the very rare circumstance.  Birth control is over 98% effective when used properly.  So, whenever you talk about the people it doesn't work for, you are talking about less than 2%.  Therefore to assume she did not use it or at least not correctly is playing the odds very, VERY, very well.

No, it really isn't.

 9.7 million people use the pill alone. At a 2% fail rate that's 194,000 pregnancies a year. Not as small as you would think. And thats just for the pill alone at a conservative 2%.

Condoms fail at a 12% rate. Multiplied by the 5.8 million users that's over 600,000 pregnancies a year. Again, not as statistically insignificant as you would think.

It's possible she was one of the almost a million people a year who got pregnant using BC.

If she was depending on a condom alone--that's still pretty stupid.

She's not some high schooler in the back of a Chevy.

Doesn't matter how she became pregnant. She is evil for using her unborn child to extort money from an organization.

If one is adamant about not wanting to be pregnant, one should take all precautions necessary to avoid it. Combine birth control methods. If you truly never want bio-kids, get a hysterectomy and avoid the worry of tube-tying failing.

The bc pill is not the best option for everyone. It also isn't as sensitive to what time one takes it as you might believe. I was on it for over a decade before having my son. Sometimes I messed up and forgot a day. Never took it an exact time each day. Never got pregnant. In fact, due to the line of thinking re taking at the same time, I thought I might be infertile. Wasn't wanting bio-kids so never got tested. Was only off it 2 months before conceiving my son. I'm back on it now and still don't take it at an exact time each day and no pregnancy scares.
