My first contact

When you had had no contact with pregnancy mothers or the abortion issue, the fact of seeing a sonogram and a girl crying because she is recognizing her own baby impressed me so much. That was I lived in my first day of work in the Brooklyn office.

That girl was only 17 years old. Her mother came to make her company. Although it was my first day and my english was a little bit rusty, I decided to talk to them. The reason that attracted me the most was that they seemed to share an excellent relationship, which is very unusual in this situations, given that the mothers don´t usually support their daughters in the decision of having their babies and even rush them into an abortion.

The mother not only supported her daughter´s pregnancy, so she wanted the baby to be a boy. Finally, it was a boy!
