Is it wrong to keep the baby just so my child has a closer sibling ?

Quiche back story. I have 2 boys one 17, one 6. Eldest has adhd and no time or tolerance for his younger brother who craves relationship.
just found out I am pg unplanned at 43 and I don’t think it’s right to continue for many reasons to include my age and poor unstable Mh. My driving factor for sitting on the fence is the fact my son will have a sibling that may want to spend time with them form a bond.
Am I wrong to keep baby just to please my son mainly ? I would love it dearly but not sure I could cope

It's a tough choice. I think 6 years is still a bit of a gap and they might not be playmates as such.

You have to take your son's wishes out of the equation and figure out what you want above all else. I hope you're ok it's a tough place to be 💚
