This is me protesting abortion on the side of the highway. I’m Pro-life and proud of it. This was my first protest and despite the cold I loved it.

“adoption is the loving option”

lol but u rong, doe

Adoption: the loving option! Except for the chance of death during the birth (11 times as likely as during an abortion), the side effects of pregnancy, the inherent mental health risk to giving a baby up for adoption, and the shame and ridicule and questioning that birth mothers face. Oh, and you have to take at least two months off of work or school to have the baby and recover. At least.

Love doesn’t pay hospital bills. Love doesn’t pay the rent. Love doesn’t explain to your sister and your stepmom and your boss and your professors and your acquaintances that yes, you are pregnant, and you’re giving the baby up for adoption.

Adoption is a beautiful, selfless gift. And a loving option to an unwanted pregnancy. But loving yourself enough, trusting yourself enough to know your circumstances and make an informed decision to safely end a pregnancy, THAT is beautiful too. And an equally valid, loving option.
