My heart is weighty simply because, as women, we take our abilities to have children for granted.
The main reason I feel the way I do is Because we have 17-year-old girls that have no business having sex or having children.
What’s even more frustrating is how easy it is for them to bear children and then hurt them like their heartbeat was underneath their hearts.
As a woman in my 40s and physically disabled, it always makes me wonder how a woman or a little girl, I should say, could hurt a human being.
They can’t fight back or never had the chance to fight back for their own lives. Being disabled, I get looked at all the time, which doesn’t bother me. What bothers me is when people or the world say I shouldn’t try to be a mother because I’m physically disabled.
Then you have these teenage girls feel like their invisible to pregnancy couldn’t happen to them because they’re so young and naïve, and it happens to them like magic.
What’s more hurtful is how easy it is for them to hurt a human life that came from a part of them, and they were able to carry them for nine months living inside them as if it was nothing special to feel something with a heartbeat move around inside their body.
I asked the world today how I can have the right question about my motherhood because of my disability and my ability to care for a child that lived inside me for nine months, which I would love because it’s a little human that represents me.
I want more than anything in the world, but nobody questions a 17-year-old girl that has no idea how to wipe her ass. How could she hurt something so innocent that lived inside her for nine months?
Whether it was expected or a surprise, she decided to take it to full-term, so how or why would you hurt a human life they couldn’t fight for themselves. There are plenty of women out there who would do anything to be mothers, and it’s a shame that 17, and 16,15-year-old girls act like it’s nothing to have them and kill them and not even give them a chance to explore the world around them.
Children have a right to live. They deserve to be loved, nurtured, and cared for. They should not feel the burden of us being overwhelmed or not prepared well enough for them.
When deciding to have sex, we must be responsible and understand that having sex brings many consequences more than having babies and STDs. Babies should not be having babies, and if we do decide to have sex remember there are better choices than killing a human life that had no say if they wanted to be a part of this world.
