So I have this friend who’s an older lady who’s always trying to bingo me about why I don’t have kids, despite the fact that I’ve told her multiple times that I’m a CF lesbian with no interest in anything to do with pregnancy.
She has a bunch of kids and they have a bunch of kids. But her youngest daughter is CF. Super carefree and enjoying life.
Well today I find out she is pregnant.
And she doesn’t sound happy about it. But it sounds like she is being pressured to keep it.
We got into a little bit of a heated discussion over it. I basically told her that you know my opinion on this kind of thing. And then she asked me outright if I would ever have an abortion and I basically said yes because I’d be a horrible mother. Then she hung up on me after telling me that that was no reason to end a life.
I’m so sad. I hate hearing announcements like this because I know where they lead to and why is the pressure to get pregnant so strong in our society despite all the bad things that come with it?
