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.
Don't judge her, that's not our job. give her some support and be a friend
You may not be trying but that was pretty bitchy. She isn't on this site, (she doesn't have kids) so she will never see this. If I put her first and last name it would be different but I didn't. Make sure you say the same thing on every other post on this site about people's husbands and family issues we all talk about here. And I didn't bash her, put your reading glasses on.
Quoting ErikaM27:
I'm not trying to be a bitch but if I was your step sister i'd be so hurt that you're telling all her business to all these strangers.if it was the 3rd man or the 100th she's your sister. If you really cared about her you'd be there for her who cares what your parents say it's not their decision. Don't judge her just be her sister.Either support her or don't come on here to bash her.
wow...i'm actually left speechless by some of the replies....that's a first lol.
...marking my calendar
I'm sorry your sister is hurting...it's never wrong to be kind and comapssionate to someone who is sad and grieving. I hope she can find comfort in you and learn to let the nasty feelings of your other family members roll off her back...
Quoting Kelli.and.Ellie:
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
Oddly enough... you do sound like one... It's not karma....
Quoting ElijahsMommy58:
She lost a child that she wanted. How could you not feel bad for her? Yeah, IMO she was wrong for getting the abortions, BUT.. she didnt deserve to lose this baby.
Quoting CaydenLogansMa:
um...yeah something about somebody sucking a life out of you with a vacuum can ruin your insides. The people that do abortions are all in it for the money. Maybe Thats why a lot of women that have abortions cant have kids again or if they do, they can be deformed. It is a real surgery. The abortionists just dont always treat it that way. They get paid big bucks for the more that they do. they get in and get out. Your step sister needs love. But maybe she cant have kids because of what she did. Dont sit there and point a finger at her though. She doesnt need that right now.
Most of this is false... minus the part where the sister needs love...
abortions put you at risk for misscairage i WISH they told people this
then tell her you are there for her! dont be worried about the other people what they feel and what you feel are two different things. however after 2 of them and an obvious difficulty with this one maybe she should go get checked out to see if she can even carry anymore...some people develop scar tissue and stuff from the abortions.
I'm not saying I would kick her while she's down, but I wouldn't really have any sympathy for her.
