To make a long story short. . . My step sister has aborted two pregnancies. She got earlier this year by her current boyfriend and has decided to keep it. Well, she lost the pregnancy almost a week ago. Everyone in our family is telling us not to feel sorry for her or to even mention what happened. When she first broke the news her mom told her that is what she getl. Karma or something. That she got rid of her first two and now that she actually wanted one it was taken away. Anyway, I feel really sorry for her. I want to do something nice for her but I don't know what. I don't even know what to say and I don't want to make my step mom or my dad mad for not just ignoring it like they expect us all to do. I feel that she needs some support and she has none, at least from our family.

  • I know a few people who had abortions and now at the age of 30 they are having fertility problems. I do not feel sorry for them. But if it was a family member who lost a baby after havig an abortion, i would have to find it inside of me to console them.

  • I think she was talking about the family, not you...

    IMO be the best friend to her you can...hopefully though she will make better choices in the future.

    Quoting amourepropre:

    Excuse me? No need to be such a bitch. I said I felt sorry for her and I'm asking what I should say or do for her! She should feel lucky that I am willing to let the past stay in the past and move forward so I can give her some support. This is the same woman who told me it was my fault my son is autistic.I think it is wrong the way my step mom is acting and how my father is going along with it. I am NOT insensitive towards her.

    Quoting momtoamo:

    I think it is disgusting your family and anyone else would say she deserves it.  Yeah like everyone is so perfect.  Get your head out of your ass and find some compassion.  If she is sad then be there for her because that is the right thing to do.  To let some one suffer because you feel the "deserve" it for choice they made is insensitive and for lack of better words being an asshole.

  • apologies - I should have been clearer about what I meant.

    (Don't freak out people, calm down! Geez!)

    When I said "screwed her womb to pieces" I didn't mean permentantly.

    I simply meant that alot of women have trouble keeping a baby after an abortion

    No not everyone.

    just alot of women.

  • Yes I do feel bad. You said YOU so I thought that was directed to me.

    Quoting momtoamo:

    My comments were towards people who felt she deserved it, thought that was pretty obvious.  It was not at you, you said you felt bad, right?

    Don't be close-minded like the others.  Give her support b/c she probably needs it.  And of course she didn't deserve it.

  • Hey girl. I wanted to say that even though I don't believe abortions are necessary in most cases. I have been in your situation and all I could do was just tell her if she needed to talk that I was here for her and offered to take her out to dinner and go to the mall.  I don't think that she deserves it, maybe she made the decisions she did because she felt it was right only she will know why she did it. It isn't our place to judge her so your family needs to quit judging and start helping a loved one out

  • Thanks, I am glad you can relate. Hey what did your family say when they found out your supported her? Did they treat you any differently?

  • i think they are just hurt that she could kill 2 babies and then finally mature up and keep the 3rd one...thats how i feel!! she didnt per say deserve to lose the baby....but i believe in karma, god seen she was killing these children and maybe didnt feel safe with a child in her hands.....to me there is no excuse for an abortion if u are stay wtih the guy and keep getting pregnant by him....not to sound like a bitch but its called birth control
