If the father of your baby is attempting to convince you that he is able to dictate your decision about the life you are carrying inside of you, tell him to think again. The simple reality is that what you decide to do about your baby is your decision. Just because he is the father of the child does not mean that he can force you in to have an abortion, if this is not what you want to do.

If you choose to have an abortion because you are pressure to do so, consider how you may feel further down the road. The father of the baby will not the physical or emotional consequences of choosing an abortion. You may resent him and others who pressured you into abortion and you could find yourself fill with guilt for choosing abortion when it wasn't something you truly wanted.

Share you feelings with him and educate him about adoption. Many times, fathers simply do not understand the adoption process. Share with him all the reasons why you feel adoption may be best and why you do not want an abortion. If, in the end, he still wants you to have an abortion, rest assured that it is still your decision to make -- not the father's, your parent's or even your freind's choice. It's your baby and your decision.
