[Advice Needed] My Parents Must Not Know That I Am Pregnant. Should I Abort It?

pregDear Tee,
I am in dilemma. I am 22 years old and I am a university graduate. I would be through with my NYSC next month which is October. The problem is I am pregnant, and yes, the man accepted the pregnancy, and he is ready to marry me. He is a responsible man, but he is not that financially stable. Also, my parents must not know that I am pregnant because they do not believe in getting pregnant before marriage. I am really scared right now. I am thinking of going for an abortion, but then I heard that complication comes up sometimes. What should I do?

Dear EN,
I think you should be happy that the man who impregnated you is responsible and ready to accept both you and the child. Now, you are considering abortion because of what your parents would say and do to you, you want to put your life at risk and murder an innocent child because of what people would think about you. IT IS NOT WORTH IT, because the deed has already been done; you are pregnant and it is not a new thing. Why should you do such terrible thing as abortion? What if you don’t get to conceive another baby if you abort this? Have you thought about that? My dear, this is about your own life now and not about your parents. You are a graduate already and would be through with your NYSC next month, what more? You are not a kid any longer and you are at a point where you can take good decisions for yourself. If you go for the abortion and something terrible happens to you, your parent whom you did the abortion for, would be “madder” at you for doing such. Dear, it is all about you now. Yes, your parents would get offended, but it would not last forever. They would forgive you, put their loving arms around you, support and celebrate you again. BE WISE, SAY NO ABORTION.

Wish you well,
Tee

  1. Hey, i dont support d idea of u havin an abortion………tell ur parents about d pregnancy am sure they will mad at u but i promise they will get over it…..i have always taught abortion was d best thing to do……….but a day will come when u will be glad u didnt have an abortion.

  2. Had it been your parents aborted u those yrs u would’nt have experience this now
    touch not my anointed and do my prophet no harm that baby is an anointed man of God so don’t play with d baby
    the deed has been done so 4get what ur parents will say or do to u and face the reality now, the reality they is ur life,
    if u want to play with it u r on own, tink about it now you are BLEES.

  3. Its against the bible. Thou shalt not kill. Dat child in your tummy is anoda generation, if u abort it, it means u r aborting a whole generation which is an aborminable act in the sight of the lord .my dear don’t tink of it pls. Ask yourself, if u were aborted, wil u be her seeking 4 advice? I rest my case. A word is enuf for the wise

  4. Tee,
    i’m also twenty two, just rounded off my degree programme and discovered i’m pregnant…thanks to my ever loving and supporting boy friend, i would have removed a baby who’s fault it is not for his/her situation.imagine killing your own(your child) because of what people would say..it’s not easy, but it’s a challenge you must face with God’s help..imagine the guilt you will leave with forever, that you murdered your baby…what if your womb is destroyed..what if you die in the process…hope you know we all have a destination when we leave this world?…yea, your parents will be mad with you, just as mine are with me right now, but in no time they’ll come over it… to have or not to have a baby can be a choice,but make sure you make the right choice…remember you cannot create a single hair..so why destroy the rare gift God has given you…you should even be glad that your partner accepted te baby.. choose wisely, my dear.
