But from my experience, living with an abortion is absolute hell. At least adoptive mothers have the hope that they will see their child again. And they know their child is alive (even if they don't know this for sure, the odds are the child is alive) and hopefully happy. ONCE YOU HAVE AN ABORTION THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO HOPE. Your child and relationship with that child is OVER AND DEAD. <br /><br />And I would think abortive mothers live with a lot more guilt and shame knowing they killed their child, sometimes in a horrific way if the abortion involved dismemberment of the fetus.<br /><br />I'm sharing this to maybe make you birth mothers feel a little better. Having an abortion would have been no picnic either, believe me. Better to be a birth mother than a death mother.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
