Sometimes it can take more than 9 months to get ready. It also seems kind of hard to get ready to have a child mentally when you are physically trying to prepare. That's a lot to handle in just nine months. :S

So when you're happy (Hurray!), or sad (Aw!),
Or frightened (Eeek!), or mad (Rats!)
An interjection starts a sentence right.

I'm not at ALL ready for a baby, I'll fully admit to being way too irresponsible right now.  I'm assuming that by the time I get married, though, I'll have calmed down, and even if I wasn't 100% ready, abortions aren't for me.  I would make the best of things and keep it.

I shop for purses while love walks out the door,
Don't cry, buy a bag and get over it.

Aborting the baby because you aren't 'ready' for it is beyond selffish.  Live up to the mistake and learn how to be ready.  
 

 Is it not more selfish to have a baby you do not want?


You don't want it, but you still have it  ....... right there you're doing the baby a favor by letting it continue to grow, doesn't sound selfish to me

No i still believe that having a child for the sake of having it and not because you want it is the most selfish thing of all. It's not fair growing up knowing that you were unwanted and that you were a mistake, i wouldn't want to put that on a child. So if i didn't want a baby, then i wouldn't have one because i'm not that selfish. I would only have a child if i could provide it with the best upbringing possible.

Week in and week out,
Your lucky charms will always let you down,
Maybe next week we'll see,
Maybe
