Oct 12, 2008 - I'm trying to understand your comment, but it's difficult for me to when you don't express yourself properly in written form. You're an exact example of the type of people who shouldn't be having children. It's well known, by people with a little bit of intelligence, that people who are more educated have less children. Less educated people are more likely to have more children. Breeders fill the world with ignorance.

Oct 12, 2008 - People giving this comment a thumbs down, do you really an unplanned pregnancy turns out all rosey and perfect? Just because Nick Cannon's mom popped out a music star, it doesn't mean that the stupid ghetto baby you pop out will make anything of itself. Once you have that unplanned baby, all of your dreams will go down the toilet.

Oct 12, 2008 - I had 2 abortions when young, and both I regret so much. Oh to go back and relive that. I have a son now who is my gift of God's grace. Wish I had of listened...

Oct 12, 2008 - This song is very touching. His mother was very brave in not going through with the aboration. At the end of the day aboration is murder plain and simple and whether its an unplanned pregnancy or not its still wrong. There are always other solutions like having the baby and putting it up for adoption.

Oct 12, 2008 - yu are so right
Piffy93 Says:
Oct 12, 2008 - i love this song because i strongly disagree with abortions because if you cant handle a baby then use protection or just dont do it

cindeemorgan Says:
Oct 12, 2008 - People who have abortions will only go to hell if they do not repent of their sin. This is true of all of us who sin. Jesus forgives those who embrace the Cross and seek his forgiveness. Christ's blood paid the price"...and by his wounds we are healed."
cindeemorgan Says:
Oct 12, 2008 - A very wise comment! God bless!
TaiJackson Says:
Oct 12, 2008 - I feel you, but I don't agree with not having abortions. I feel it could apply for different circumstances (raped)However Nick deliver from a interesting point of view that I love and respect.
agodsgirl Says:
Oct 12, 2008 - Amen! You said it beautifully. I had a abortion at 23 and lived with that guilt until I was 30. I went to church, got on my knee's and prayed, asked for forgiveness!! My father healed me. I am now Christian and PRO-Life. No matter what the circumstance is... There is adoption. It is better to give life, then take a Life.

Oct 12, 2008 - This song has to be one of my favorites from him, because other than all the other songs he had. This is the one that is touching. I love it. I don't believe in abortions, I feel that you do what you do, you may get pregnant. But just think is it right to take away a life/person that wasn't asked to be here in the first place. It's better to give life than to take it away.Some people may do it because they got raped or something,
Omarionluva06 Says:
Oct 12, 2008 - but they are killing someone that can live a long and probably healthy life. There are many things you can do than have an abortion.
yourmother3232 Says:
Oct 12, 2008 - LOL at all the pro-life people. it isn't YOUR fuckin' decision if someone else is gonna have an abortion now is it? hell if it bothers you that fuckin much why don't you just take in all the kids that mothers were gonna abort them...I bet then you won't be whinin and bitchin. the baby MIGHT live a healthy life etc., but that's just MIGHT. a lot of things MIGHT happen.I'm not even gonna get into the whole religon bullshit either it's a waste of my time.
missingastarclancat Says:
Oct 12, 2008 - adoption. yourmother3232,you shame YOURMOTHER. all her pain and labor, and you don't give a "fuck" about it?! regardless of religion, and YES, i am catholic and proud of it, LIFE is a gift. Obviously you need something to wake you up. You are right, it is a MIGHT. you throw life away on a chance?no, that MIGHT is not a WILL have a good life because of people like you. Abortion is not a healthy life.Thanks for listening. I'll pray for you. you need it.

Oct 12, 2008 - Man my girl is 25 and she is pregrant with my child and we have been debating on having an abortion on and off for about a month now. I am completely agains it and I will be there for her and the baby but she does not want to have it, a peice of her does but she told me today that she is going to get rid of it. It hurts me because I made the baby a promise that I will always be there for her....
emannyl89 Says:
Oct 12, 2008 - My girlfriend is scared to struggle and she thinks that she cant finish school if she keeps the baby. I told her that I will always be there for her and that we can work it out. I even told her that I woud take care of the baby on my own that she doesnt need to have anything to do with it but she still said no. It hurts because I love her and I love my baby. I just have no say in this even though it is part my child it is all up to her.

Oct 12, 2008 - dont compromise nigga! a life is on the line. tell that dumb girl "if you kill my baby, we done!"
