ABORTION, TILL WHEN?

By Henry Adera

Uttering that word alone is enough to send a chill down your spine, at least if you have blood running in your veins instead of cold water. I sought to unearth some facts on this topic since I know some friends of mine who have fallen victim to the same, while others are considering it as the only option right now. Some mothers have been greatly disappointed because the efforts to sustain their daughters in Campus become greatly unappreciated when, instead of degree certificates, their daughters present “Living degrees”. 

Let me solely converse with the ladies concerning this issue. Dear ladies, while you boast to your friends about your doctor boyfriend, other ladies are burning the midnight oil in an effort to become doctors. Why get carried away by your boyfriend’s wealth to the level of engaging in unprotected sex? Or why become so gullible to give that much trust?

It’s a universal fact that beauty attracts. However, manners and dignity keep. If your relationship has sex as its base, it becomes a relationshit. Can I disclose some secret to you? Men have their own “Sex book of records” and if all he values most is getting between your legs, RUN! In the nation we live in today, you can choose to work hard now, get a job and live happily with your husband without becoming a housewife liability in your marriage or go ahead and mess up your life, get a child and become a single mum as no man will accept taking responsibility of a burden in marriage.

“Thou shall not kill” is amongst God’s commandments. Abortion is murder, whether you like it or not. Sexual feelings are natural and sex sometimes becomes inevitable. In order to keep hysteria cases at bay; use protection!

According to the Google Zeitgeist 2012 report, ‘how to abort’ topped Kenya's Google searches in the 'How to...' category. This was followed closely by ‘how to conceive’ at number four, ‘how to seduce’ at number six and ‘how to romance’ at eight. For obvious reasons, ‘how to use a condom’ wasn’t big a hit.
Ladies, how will you live with the guilt of knowing you never gave a child a chance to live? What if your mom considered terminating you in your foetal state? You can pretend you are happy. You can try convincing everyone around you that you are innocent but the worst part is: Everybody will believe it, except you! Take it or leave it.

As you read this, there is a comrade and his expectant girlfriend discussing abortion some place; a comrade is having an abortion; another comrade could be breathing her last - the result of a botched abortion, and in some Hostel, a couple is having unprotected sex, right this moment, without a care in the world.
