Column in women’s magazine
How do I choose and what is the morally right thing to do?
I'm a girl at the age of 18 and even though my boyfriend and I are very careful, I have become pregnant. I have already been to the doctor to get it confirmed (as though four pregnancy tests are not enough) I am only five weeks pregnant and I feel trapped already. I haven’t told my boyfriend of fear that our relationship won’t survive this miracle or disaster. I want to tell him so we can discuss our options, but I don’t know how to. He is a truly bad-boy and I don’t really see him being a supportive and loving father, so maybe I have to simply choose for myself what the best solution for both of us would be. I know that in the end, the choice is mine but it is an impossible choice to make: either kill it or give it up for adoption. I truly believe that I am in no condition to take care of another life, not even my cactus survived a year. I’m torn and really hope you can help?

This is meant as a letter to an Agony Aunt column, right? Works just fine... The moral dilemma suggested by the title, however, doesn't really come through in the letter itself which is more focused on the practical aspects of the girl's choice.
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with Bent, however, I loved that you have used the cactus thing from your own life :)
