My boyfriend and I ended up getting married. Ten years later and we now have two wonderful boys. I get pictures of her every year and since it was an open adoption, we can always get a hold of each other if it is ever necessary. I wish adoption wasn't looked down upon so much. I wish it was offered at places like Planned Parenthood as readily as they offer abortions.
Adoption leaves no regret, abortion does.
Thank you for listening. That is the first time I have shared this story ever. It feels great. Last winter I found out that I was pregnant from a date rape. I freaked out because I made a promise to myself that I would never have an abortion.
