Dear Prudence: Daughter Wants Late Term Abortion

ed11563 · Guru

If she gives him the baby, and signs away her parental rights, would she have to pay child support?

ed11563 · Guru

I think having a late term abortion for this reason is just WRONG.

I also have observe that women who are in their third trimester can be (occasionally) completely irrational.

She might want the guy back after the baby is born.

Mellow Momma · Sniff...sniff, sniff. Yay! A Bum!

I am pro choice and I think this advice is absolutely horrid.

The pregnant woman in the OP needs to see a counselor ASAP. She is in severe depression over the loss of her relationship and doesn't know how to cope. This is what needs addressed. She left her husband - was there a reason for this? Did she just wake up and decide to leave him? I wonder if she is struggling with the idea of motherhood and is ruining her life to avoid becoming a mother? It's highly possible. She need help.

Women like this piss me off!

I was left while pregnant.

Killing my baby wasn't even a blip on my radar.

Grow up, buttercup!

Don't kill your child!

DD was an angel sent to me. She was born 4 months after I left the abusive marriage I was in. I've never regretted going through that horrid time because I believe she was my reward.

ETA to add that the daughter absolutely needs counseling.

Vette · Owl drink to that!

Lily, people are not robots programed to act a certain way when they reach a certain age. We are filled with emotions and heartache and bad decisions and we all need God because we can't do things on our own.

I agree with Mellow Momma that it's terrible advice. Talk about laying a guilt trip on the mom. I wish there were more to the story as to why she left her husband.

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

It does not matter WHY she left.

She is pregnant.

That baby did NOTHING.

Put it up for adoption.

But you don't kill your baby because you left your husband.

She does need counseling.

And she needs to grow up and think about someone other than herself. She needs to think of the baby she wanted until she left her husband.

Selfish little girl.

Lindley · Guru

I agree that the dd needs counseling. I feel like she is reacting to her hurt and will regret this big time and this is something you can't undo. She may not be able to stop her daughter but she shouldn't have to pay for it either.

Mellow Momma · Sniff...sniff, sniff. Yay! A Bum!

Of course it matter why she left. If her husband is abusive or if she just found out he has been cheating on her for months...that's a reasonable response. If she just up and left him one day with no explanation and without warning...that's not reasonable and shows signs of making really bad decisions. Perhaps she is on the throes of a serious breakdown and needs intervention. We need the context around the decision to leave her husband to determine if it was reasonable or not. It actually sounds like she is going out of her way to wreck her own life. She needs help.

For wanting to abort the baby, the reasons for her marital breakdown means zero.

karl271 · Guru

She notes her soon-to-be ex-husband would block the abortion. Does this mean he would raise the child? Or just what?? She doesn't want the child and she doesn't want him to have it, either? Definitely she needs counseling....

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

It's a reasonable response?

Killing a late term baby because of a man is reasonable?

Ok.

You just lost any credibility and any respect I had for you.

There is no reason on God's green earth or in Heaven or Hell to abort a baby.

Especially a baby in the third trimester.

Then she can pay for it and all that comes along with it (transportation, lodging) herself. She wants to murder her child and have her mother be an accomplice. She should be sterilized during the procedure.

Yep, the father has no control over his own child. Very sad.

Prudie is her usual moronic self. BTW, Prudie? Really? This writer is a "prude" in the old fashioned sense of ettiquette and manners? Um no. Let's just call her Mallory which is her name and forget the Prudie part because that is absurd.

And, no Prudie Mallory you are wrong. She may or may not get the abortion "anyway". She might not if mom isn't going to just cave in and help her.

How about not allowing abortion? Once one is pregnant, they have an obligation to another human. If you don't want that responsibility, don't get pregnant. How would you like it if itty bitty had been aborted?

No it does not ask about leaving the husband. What I am attempting to do, see if you can follow along, is determine if there is a pattern of irrational thinking here. If she just up and left her husband for no reason, and now wants to abort this baby, she she is in the midst of a pattern of bad behavior and has deep issues that need resolved. If this is the first questionable decision she has made, then there is another way to tackle this issue. She needs counseling before this baby is born. She cannot parent it and will need help regardless of what she chooses to do.

LOL! That was a lecture?! Alrighty then!

It's actually not obvious. You love Itty Bitty but you are also pro-choice. The answer based on your posts would be that you would've been 100% supportive of Itty Bitty's mom if she wanted to abort Itty Bitty since it's 'her body, her choice' (your words). However, one's positions on certain topics sometimes change when it hits home. I don't believe for one second that you would've told Itty Bitty's mom to go ahead with the abortion had she wanted one.

Then give it to husband to raise and sign away your rights if you don't want to raise the child. You don't just kill him/her. And you don't ask your parents to pay for it.

This woman is grieving her marriage and not making a rational decision. This would haunt her.

As her mother, I would tell her I'd help raise the baby, but I would not help or support her in killing it.
