How would you react to you're mom telling you that you would of had one more sibling if she didn't choose

My Mom DID have an abortion, so I would have had another sibling. I was quite young when she told me, so I don't really remember. I would think if I don't remember, it never really bothered me. Of course, she had been told by her doctor that there was only a 50/50 chance that she would survive the birth. She decided it was better to be there for her other three children than to chance not being there for four.

Hymmmmmmm...that would be a bit upsetting. But....I would try to understand as best I could.....you never truly understand until you are in someone elses shoes though. I'd do my best to just forgive and forget...it can't be changed now.

i would think--or hope--that she must have had good reasons for her choice (maybe ask her what they were) and i would just be happy that she DID choose to have me.

I would not care. If my mother had an abortion she did it for a darn good reason. You can't miss what you have never had.

Tell her that you love her

I guess I'd be glad I was the one she was telling it to!

(Rather than being - or rather NOT being - the one she was talking about!)

I would wonder why she feels the need to tell me that.

It was her choice

Miscategorized. This is the immigration forum. Please repost.

Dude... you have been told a million times this doesn't belong in immigration.

I would be sad because I might think that my mom regretted having the abortion and she could not change that.

But don't feel responsible for your mom. She made her decision. And I really do not think she is trying to make you feel bad unless she is somehow saying it angry.

So what? It was her decision not mine.

Pretty Me : )

I would be ok with it, because that was her choice and she did it for her own reasons be happy she did it so she can buy you more things.

Was her choice. That and I don't think a REAL mother would say that to a child..............

missee

I would be upset but I would know that was her decision to make and she has had to live with it. That is punishment enough so don't be angry at her.

I'd say thank god.

Otherwise I would have had less toys.

It would be none of my business...move on to an IMMIGRATION issue.

I would tell my mom that I understood why she made the choice. So I am guessing that you are just on here to try and make others feel bad. Well its not working. This is a form of Spam and I am reporting you. Thou shall not judge others. Does that sound familiar?

Again everyone has a past. She made her choice for whatever reason. I would not tell my children though unless they specifcally asked or if I thought it would be of some benefit to them. And as I said before I think you need to try and relax, at the end of the day you have no right to try and influence people go in peace and live your own life, and people will live theirs. It does not affect you directly.

how would you react to your mom telling you that you would have had fifteen more siblings if she has started popping them out at age 14 and had one every year forever? Which one is more responsible?

i would be soooo upset! But there is nothing that can be done now...maybe she is trying to prepare you for your future by telling you not to make the same mistakes as her....also...why is this listed under immigration?

Be sympathetic. Your poor Mom made an agonizing choice and probably still feels the guilt which may explain why she told you. I am sure she had very valid reasons for doing such a drastic thing - could have been to give you the best life she could. Even if you oppose abortion, remember that she is your mother and she loves you. Family should forgive one another and support each other through the toughest situations.

Ranchgirl

it is her decision and thank her for letting you know.... ask her if that is what you really want then tell her if you would like to keep this baby then you would help in any way that you could

Hopefully I would answer with intelligence and openess. Hopefully I would illustrate a willingness to put myself in her feet and walk the miles she walked. I would try to understand that it was her choice and she had her reasons, ones I could most probably never understand since they are not my own.

pain_made_me_beautiful

i think you are being a big a.ss baby. grow the ***** up and get over it already. don't burden other people with your moms choice. guess what she isn't perfect.. so what.. neither are you.

answerlady1021

I'd be glad there was one less mouth to feed, one less kid to get her attention and one less kid to send to college.

Give your mom a break... you may be in the same situation someday.

MEL T

I wouldn't care.

leanne_on_line

i dont know i guess it depends what the reasons were i mean was the baby in poor health etc or could she not afford to raise another or did she just think i dont want any more in the end it was her choice so i guess id feel sad confused and probably on some level angry im sorry x

Luckyinlove22

i would respect her more for telling me, and realize that it was her choice & she probably had a reason to make that choice.

id be kinda glad i dont got another annoying sibling to bother me. i would understand why. my mom was about 15 or 16 when she got pregnant wit my brother. so if she got pregnant wit another baby any earlier than that, i can totally understand why shed get an abortion.

viziata

I wouldn't be upset on my mom even if she would have aborded me~it's all okay
