Different Perspective-a vent in four acts

Cissi64

I was on another website  trying to get on a board similar to this one.  I clicked on a "depression & grief" instead of "Loss" by accident.  Out of curiosity, I began to read posts and came across one from a 24 year old whining about how  depressed she was because she is pregnant with her FIFTH!!,  her children are all babies, she makes too much money at her job to get public assistance but not enough to support her children and life is hard, etc.

Now I know this girl is probably overwhelmed and there was no mention of a father but I just about screamed!  I started to post a semi snarky comment about how she should be grateful and give a little of my story but luckily you have to have an account with that site and I didn't.  Before I could get signed up, I kicked the cord to the computer and cut the power.  I guess God was trying to keep me from being hateful and hurting someone else.  I certainly was not in a helpfu,l kind mood toward this girl.

What I wanted to write:

Use birth control dummy!

Put it up for adoption!  There are thousands of people that would give your child a wonderful home.  You aren't doing yourself, the baby or your current children any favors by having another when you can't support/ deal with the ones you have.

What I did: 

Tried to calm myself down

Said a prayer for this girl and her children

Cried about the babies I have lost and wondered yet again why God wouldn't let me keep one of them when there are so many people who have them and don't want them or can't take care of them.
