Don't kill your child to solve your problem

It is rather sad to read about a tragic death of a UTM student and her newborn child whose umbilical cord was still attached to the mother when they were both found dead by the university warden. It was believed that the pity girl and her baby had died for about two days when they were discovered. How tragic was that?

It is not uncommon to hear about sex before marriage giving rise to abortion, child abandonment and all sort of social problems. I was recently told by a friend that he was shocked when told by his 20-year old son just after the moment his girl friend gave birth to a baby boy. His son and his fiancé are both university students. My friend was shocked and angry as the son has been hiding the pregnancy of his fiancé for a good 10 months from their family members. I can’t imagine the stress and torture that both of them have to suffer for that long. It seems that young people don’t even bother to think about the consequences when come to sex. We cannot behave like stray dogs, fucking around and giving birth to more stray dogs. Please practice safe sex young girls or boys if you buggers think that you are old enough to have sex. Otherwise, a lot of problems will crop out. Girl especially should insist on safe sex, not only for contraception but also to prevent sex transmitted diseases, and don’t ever play a fool, these diseases can be life threatening if not treated.

I remember I read about a speech given by Mother Teresa on the annual National Prayer Breakfast on February 3, 1994 in front of Bill and Hillary Clinton and the whole bunch of important delegates, politicians and etc. She spoke about social problems derived from abortion. She said that the greatest destroyer of peace is abortion, because every abortion is the denial of receiving Jesus. I’m not a Christian, not a Chatolic but I respect Mother Teresa as she has the standing of a saint, for her devotion to god and human race. She said that abortion is really a war against the child, and she hates the killing of the innocent child, murder by the mother herself. And if we can accept that the mother can kill even her own child to solve her problem, how can we tell other people not to kill one another? She spoke on fighting abortion with adoption, telling the frightened young girls please don’t kill the child and give them to her instead. Her speech was given a standing ovation even though Bill and Hillary and other politicians from Clinton administration seemed apparently unmoved as these were the people who pledged supports for abortion rights.

Whatever religion you are, we are all sinners, we make mistakes at some points of our life, some big some small. For those frightened young girls or unmarried young couple, please seek help if you or you fiancé are pregnant accidentally. Don’t ever think that you can solve the problem by yourself, seek help, there are a lot of counseling or community services offerring help if you can't get help from you own family.

Please don’t solve your problem by killing your own baby.
