My mother was 12 years old when I was born and turned 13, 19 days afterward!
Dad was 17.
If there ever was a good excuse for an abortion .. I guess you could say that I would have been it!
Thank God that my parents didn’t think so!
This was in South Florida back in 1952.
My mother turned 16 the month before I was born. We must be kindred souls :-)

It was much more difficult back then. Had we been conceived in today's society .. well, who knows if we would be having this discussion.
Thank your mother for choosing life! Surprise her with a bouquet of flowers and a card that lets her know how grateful you are. Thank you for posting your story.
