It is obvious?

She wanted an abortion. That was her solution or as she said, her only option. Like many women, she was agreed that the act was morally wrong, supposed to end a life that did not own, but in her case was justified.

Why we try to justify the unjustifiable? In our case it is always right, or not so bad, and when we see the error in the outside we were shocked. We try to convince ourselves.

The nice woman, with two children from a previous marriage, planned to end the life of his son, without consulting the father of it with which has lasted three years together. Her previous failure was terrified and feared that can happen again seemed sufficient reason to terminate her pregnancy. She, probably without realizing but selfishly, thought it suited her and her preferences. She wanted a solid relationship and stability.


What greater stability than to bring together a child to the world? What greater stability in a relationship that come to an agreement about what is best for them through dialogue? This joint decision-making is a process that although can be hard sometimes strengthen the relationship, as it is based on trust.


This at some now seems so obvious, it may be in a time of great stress not as evidence. And a conversation as simple as this, it may help a mother to save her son's life. We must not forget that are God and mothers who save lives and that we are mere instruments in the service of God.
