I would argue that not only is it wrong to kill the baby (which is not only the rapist's baby but the girls as well) but that the 13 year old would know that it was wrong! Why would you want to make her a victim twice? Would carrying the baby be hard...yes. Would carrying the baby be an inconvenience...yes. Would carrying the baby be right...yes. Often doing the easy thing is not the same as doing the right thing. Doing what is right would be difficult; living with the guilt of killing a baby would be crushing. She could clean off the blood of labor and know that she gave the baby a good home via adoption but she could never clean off the blood of abortion. She would live every single day knowing that she killed someone. Taking the easy way out would be the hardest in the long run.
And to say that the pregnancy would remind her that she was raped is bogus---do you think that a woman ever forgets being raped?; pregnant or not the answer is no.
