Why do many pro-life people insult or put down pregnant/teenage mothers?

Question

To me it is a perfect display of hypocrisy. What do they hope to gain by this immature and nonconstructive behavior? I am pro-life. In my opinion pro-life should also mean "destroy the notion capital punishment" as well(That was probably more than you wished to know...oh well).

Thanks in advance,

Unafraid.

Answer 1

of course its going to change their life, having a baby will change anyones life no matter what age you are. most people that do that, think they are better and are sitting up on their high horse. it really bugs me, b/c i am a young mother. i just turned 24 on wednesday, and i have a 4 year old son. i heard all kinds of mean things from close minded people. "its going to ruin my life, give it up for adoption" they never stopped to think that maybe i want this baby. and actually, having my son saved my life. other wise, i would still be with the guy that got me pregnant (he is also my ex husband) b/c i would have never opened my eyes to realize that he is a p.o.s. and wouldnt be good for my son.

Answer 2

I'm not prolife, but I agree with you. I think no one should be put down for making mistakes and choosing to live with them. I think it is very honorable for a teenager to choose to have a child even though it will drastically change her life and many people's opinions of her.

Answer 3

I am pro-life as well, and I myself have never put down a young mother, I myself was one..if you consider 22 young!

But I say for the people that do put them down, it's a dark road ahead!
