Cat Uncaged

Personally, Tweeting and abortion on Twitter, to me, is a little much.

According to ABC News Angie Jackson chose to tweet an abortion that was done to "save her life". Doctors had informed her after her first pregnancy that she should not have any more children. She did have an IUD put in, with an abortion option as a back up.

I'm not against medical abortion, but I really feel using twitter to discuss it in detail, while going on, is asking for trouble...

Jackson has recieved many death threats and is being called a baby killer.

I find anti-abortion activists very hypocritical. They don't want babies "killed" but some are willing to kill to get their way!?

Whatever her choice was and for whatever her reasons, I don't personally think twitter was the right platform for the graphic details.

I love my daughter more than anything, but before she was born was a difficult time. Pregnancy was not kind to me. But that is a story for another day.

When my daughter was born, I was scared and unsure. I loved my baby, but I did not bond immediately, as the books say. Bonding took several weeks. I breastfed Cailyn until she was 6 months old. It was a wonderful yet very trying situation. I feared I wasn't making enough Milk etc. Thanks to some wonderful online friends I stuck it through. Cracked, bleeding nipples and all.

My husband went back to work two weeks after she was born, and I was terrified, I was going to be alone, what if something happened? Well, it didn't and we were just fine, but the fear was real.

I think the thing that I found most interesting was the first month of her life was not at all like they said it would be. The books and magazines portrayed this wonderful, magical time, but it was difficult and strange, uncharted territory. I learned the ways of my daughter, what she liked, what she didn't and things got easier.
There are times that she is difficult and doesn't want to agree to anything, but I know we all get like that.

I love my daughter and I see the magic in her now. I would not change her for the world. I can not imagine life without her. I honestly don't want to imagine life without her.

I love being a mother now, and though it was hard in the beginning, I have grown and changed and learned so much from being a parent.

I had a teenager, she was about 13, tell me she was trying to have a baby. I was floored! I mean at 13 why would one want a baby?

I remember when I was 13 and a baby was the LAST thing on my mind.
Why is it that teens want babies?

Do they want the poop filled diapers and the sleepless nights and daytime trips to the hospital. While doing all this, they still Have to remain in school, and have to figure out a way to pay for this mouth to feed?

Where would a 13 year old come up with the resources to pay for a baby. If my daughter were like a cat life would be so much easier. (even though she does sometimes act like an animal.... see picture!)

But children are not animals, no matter how much you think they are. They are human beings with minds, and behaviors and tantrums, and happiness.

A child IS a blessing to someone who is old enough to see it, and has all their schooling under their belts.
I'm not saying that teen mothers are bad people. They are not. I am saying that wanting a child at the age of 13 is sad, and kind of wrong.

Around the age of 16 our hormones start kicking in and we start to crave sex and things of that nature, but to have a baby that early, is emotionally draining for a lot of teens.

Parents need to talk with their kids, and explain what having a child really is. A child isn't a handbag or shirt, and once you have one, there is no going back.
I also disagree and hate it when parents shun their kids or disown them for becoming pregnant in their teen years. This is disgraceful! When your child needs you the most, you let them down?

I dunno, I just think that we moms need to stop glorifying to kids what motherhood is about. I love my daughter! BUT I would not want to have had her in my teens. She was born when I was 20. I had so many people tell me that I was too young, and that I would regret it. I don't, but If I had been pregnant before that, I might have. I think it is wrong to make children feel unwanted. A lot of teen mothers resent having a child so soon in life.
