It doesn't bear thinking about. Poor poor thing. I hope she gets all the support she needs

yomellamoHelly · 27/06/2008 11:21

But how sad too that she wants to kill it. Surely someone could care for her and help her deal with the fact of the pg until the baby comes. Then it could be adopted and she could continue to receive all the counselling she needs. An abortion is unlikely to be the end of it for her I think.

would you really see a child go through labour

cupsoftea · 27/06/2008 11:26

how terrible for her - she's a child. What happened to her rapist?

motherinferior · 27/06/2008 11:27

Christ, poor child, I hope to hell she gets her termination.

sophiajane · 27/06/2008 11:30

Poor child should not go through labour. Makes me thankful for our existing abortion laws.

motherinferior · 27/06/2008 11:31

I would not want any 11 year old, raped or not, to go through childbirth.

pooka · 27/06/2008 11:33

Agree with MI and all those who think she should be allowed to have abortion.

CountessDracula · 27/06/2008 11:35

dh was at the BPAS conference yesterday and the head of BPAS had to vanish for a while to deal with this. She gave an amazing speech about it at the end apparently

We had a long conversation last night about this - it is truly appalling that a law is in place that prevents this poor child from getting a termination under these circumstances. Although i feel the current abortion laws are often used for the wrong purposes over here I do feel grateful that we live in a society that would not allow someone to suffer further in a situation like this

Oh poor little girl I really hope they allow her to do this, she shouldn't have to have a baby at 11.

Cupsoftea I think the article said her uncle (the one responsible for her pregnancy) has just upped and disappeared.

Seems she's being allowed the abortion in Romania.

the very fact that this poor kid is being paraded about made to be the subject of outside parties ideas is truly despicable

KaySamuels · 27/06/2008 13:09

Poor little thing my dss is a very old 11 year old and I can't still can't comprehend how she will get through this.

nametaken · 29/06/2008 12:21

I've seen pictures of this girl in the newspaper and she looks a lot older than 11.

Freckle · 29/06/2008 12:41

But, at 20 weeks, wouldn't she have to go through labour anyway? Obviously not such a strain at 20 weeks as at 40, but labour nonetheless.

Poor child. And what must her parents think? Especially the sibling of the uncle.

greenelizabeth · 29/06/2008 21:53

Poor child.
