What runs through your minds about raising your child when you are pregnant?

Question

In the news yesterday, some kids are being called "throw away" kids. Run aways! These kids have been targeted by pimps and beaten until they submit into prostitution. What good are us parents if we don't provide a safe haven for our children? What good are we if we only provide them with anger, hostility, drugs and alcohol? God did not give them to us, He loaned them to us. It is our responsibility to raise His kids to the best of our ability. We not only need to provide them with a roof over their heads and food in their tummies, but also their spiritual needs. We are to raise them to His laws. He holds us responsible. I don't want to face his wrath over raising one of His children. So, why do we have so many run aways? Why are these children being called throw away kids? Why are so many parents not taking this responsibility seriously? So, when you sit there and think about all the things you want to do with your child, think also about who loaned them to you.

Answer 1

Because Crystal not all women are spiritual or religious...they have kids (mistakes) and dont think about how they will grow up or what will affect them, most women take good care of their children but some just think of another mouth to feed or when are you gonna grow up and move out kinda thing...only a real christian women thinks like that, you make a good point cause we are all Gods children and we have the power to make them who they will grow up to be. I am 13 weeks pregnant right now and I have so much on my plate right now the thing that I am worried about right now is that it comes out healthy and beautiful and safe. Then when it starts to grow and absorb the world I will teach it good values and what is right and wrong.

Answer 2

its just the way the world is now...upside down.

I could go on for hours but...

Those of us who do abide by His laws, must do so and also try to offer advice to those who do not. Thats really all we can do.
