    I was 16 and got pregnant, and was studying in a Catholic university, in a highly conservative Christian country. The university will expel a student once they find out she is pregnant, that's why they do compulsory urine pregnancy test every six months. I submitted someone else's urine sample just so I could finish the semester, and quietly left university before they find out, and moved to an Episcopal university where they would judge me... less, and allow me to finish my studies. I kept attending class until I was 6 months pregnant, hiding the bulge under oversized hoodies. I gave birth to her, and went back to uni after two weeks, without telling anyone except my closest friends. Raising her while studying was tough, I remember falling asleep while breastfeeding her with my university study materials in one hand, and not being able to attend a friend's 18th birthday because I was at home taking care of her. I graduated top of my class, and now have a stable job. I am glad I kept her, and I have no regrets. She is a gift to me by God, and she gives me joy!

      Yaaay. Wow, you are a hero, you could've chosen the wrong way out, out of selfish reasons but you thought of her even if you were going to suffer, and I think that's incredible. God bless you both.
      I don't think the Catholic university is wrong for having that rule, but I think they should also teach that there are Catholic or pro-life programs that can help those that do make the wrong decisions so that way they get the help they need instead of seeking out klanned parenthood. And use it as a teaching moment, fornication is a sin, but you can repent and still be forgiven and receive healing.

      John 20:22 "And Jesus breathed on the apostles and said 'Receive the HOly Spirit, if you forgive the sins of any they are forgiven, and if you retain the sins of any, they are retained."
      Notice how he does this only to his apostles and every Catholic Pope can be traced back to St. Peter the Rock.

    This woman made all the wrong conclusions. Sure, she is an example of how one's decision to abort a child should be well-thought and all the options should be considered. Also, a woman undergoing an abortion must know that it's a choice she would have to live with for the rest of her life.
    But what this lady did was use her human right to CHOOSE, had an abortion that's inaccessible to so many, made her own conclusions, and now she wants to apply her situation to other women. Why? Her experience is NOT other women's experiences. If she wants to help, she should volunteer at a women's health clinic and not ambush women seeking abortion outside such a clinic. Also, the irony is, lots of Planned Parenthood and other clinics DO ultrasound and pregnancy care; abortions is just one of the many services they offer.
