[QUOTE="Fran, post: 470700, member: 3"] Nancy, I know it is gut wrenching but her abuse of her body and lack of ability to raise a baby is terrifying. Especially if the baby has problems due to drug and alcohol abuse in the first trimester. I would never judge someone lest I be judged. Right? I agree with you from watching the parents of adopted children, that adoption brings a whole host of problems. She didn't make this decision lightly and after knowing you that you would never support something like abortion for convenience. You just wouldn't. difficult child is self destructive and self sabotaging. She has incredible tolerance for the low life and still seems to be at that level. Hopefully this will upset her enough that she will never get in this situation. I don't know one woman who has had an abortion who ever forgets it and they shouldn't. I'm a big believer that birth control is the best answer to avoid these difficult issues. Your difficult child sure loves to be self righteous and indignant about doing the right thing until she goes off and comes to the same conclusions. It must be exhausting for you and husband. Many hugs to your mom heart and many good thoughts that difficult child becomes very aware the price of her behavior has had on everyone. (although I'd love to give her a knock upside her head for not using birth control). Our difficult child's just make life so hard for themselves. Good luck and my thoughts will be with you on Friday.
