You're right. We should wait until it turns 18 and ask him/her then......

6 miscarriages? I thought you said you had just went off birth control and just got engaged when u got pregnant. Either your timing is off or your miscarriages happened with previous relationships, in which case you still fit the bill
Believe what you want to believe about me. It must be nice to live in your ivory tower Absolutely. Of course, when does the count to 18 -start-?

Well, since it's a "birth" date, I would start counting from birth :shrug:
Or, are you suggesting that the living, breathing, separate life voluntarily placed within the womb of the mother by the mother and father is not actually a life?

Did you have an answer to the father's rights, or the child's rights? Or, did you just think people cared whether you thought someone else scored a point?

You based your entire argument about how you didn't fit that "other" category since you were engaged. You then went ahead to say that you became pregnant with your son shortly after you became engaged. You then said prior to becoming pregnant with your son, you had been on the pill. You then said you also had 6 miscarriages. That timeframe leads me to believe most, if not all, of the 6 miscarriages occurred while you weren't engaged, putting you back in the category that you tried to sidestep by saying you were engaged.
That's all I was trying to say.
Define "life" for me and I will give you an answer.

I forgot the "officially" engaged part. We were engaged 6 months prior to the official popping of the question (the ring was bought, just travel kept us both apart for long periods, and he wanted to plan a big surprise thingie for me for the "official").You based your entire argument about how you didn't fit that "other" category since you were engaged.

OH... and 4 of the miscarriages were in that relationship.
The other 2 came from HS when I was young and stupid... but I was with the same guy for about 6 years :shrug:

when baby comes out of vajayjay since that's the "birth" day? :shrug:
I think I've made my point
Oh wait, you did.
Show me a fetus that can survive that without the life of their mother (or similar holding cell) and I will agree it is a living breathing seperate thing. Because seperation kinda assumes that it is a -seperate- life than the mother.
I hope Nana now is reading and understands things are sometimes necessary and there are unique situations.
Nana does understand and has been saying that all along. I wish you would slow down think about what you are saying and "listen" to what others say you would understand that this was not a personal attack on you it was on what you said and you have changed the basis of the story 3 times now adding information each time.

Yup. It is not a "life" until it is outside of her. Until then, it is not a seperate thing.

Wow... sorry that happened to your brother. It's a sad thing to happen to children but it does happen, I'm sure your brother's step kid will eventually get over it, kids are resilient for the most part.
As a single parent you just don't go into a relationship blindly, you're more guarded and you think things out much more than if you didn't have kids at all. In my situation, BF and I are working on something much larger.
