I understand that abortion is a very touchy subject. I posted my opinion about it on Facebook once, and let's just say, it didn't turn out too well. Not for me, but for the people who tried ridiculing me.

They ended up making themselves look horrible. So before you throw shade in the comments below, I would learn from their mistakes and simply hear me out.

This article isn't about whether abortion should be legal or not.

If you're going to ask if I think it's right or wrong, I'll gladly tell you I think it's wrong. Period. That's a matter of opinion, and I'm proud to believe abortion is murder. No, I'm not against women's right, I'm just for human rights.

This article is about the core of abortion — the reason women suffer depression and emotional distress for the rest of their lives after getting one; the reason abortion is so controversial, to begin with.

Whether or not you believe a fetus is considered a baby in the womb is your business, but there's something to be said about the value of life.

If you aren't a parent, you can't possibly begin to understand that value.

Not only is there a small, amazing human inside you, but there's also a future hero in there — maybe an entrepreneur, a beautician, or even a veterinarian. All important roles who make a huge impact on society.

If you end that baby's life simply because you don't "feel" like having a baby, don't want stretch marks, or want a different baby daddy, then YOU are what is wrong with society.

Those are beyond selfish reasons to have an abortion, and I sadly know more than a handful of people who used those lame excuses to have an abortion in college.

Don't tell me it's impossible to raise a baby in college. It's very much possible.

Just so you know what I'm talking about, let me give you a quick rundown of my college years.

Freshman year: I lived it up.

First day of sophomore year: I found out I was having a baby.

Last day of sophomore year: I was one week post-partum.

Junior year: I had an infant to feed while everyone else got drunk.

Senior year: I took 24 credits and graduated a semester early while raising a one-year-old and working part-time.

But let's get one thing straight. I'm NOT saying any college student can do it just because I did.

My situation, like everyone else's, is unique. I'm obviously not comparing myself to any other pregnant college student because I know there's a lot of factors that played a role— upbringing, motivation, income, support, etc.

What I want people to take away from this article is this: just because having a baby in college is terrifying does NOT mean it's a mistake. Ending your baby's life, however, is.

An abortion will scar you for life.

If you're ignorant enough, you may live guilt-free for some time. But whether you decide to have kids or end up never having any, an abortion will haunt you for life.

Having a child blesses you in ways you never thought possible. It brings you an unexplainable joy and purpose that you won't find anywhere else.

And no, your pet a.k.a "baby" will never compare to having an actual child.

No, it won't ruin your college experience. It'll give you a different experience--and a better one in my opinion.

No, you won't lose all your friends. And if you do, they probably weren't real friends, to begin with. Please don't get an abortion because you think your life is more important than your unborn child's.

No life is more important than another — unborn or not.
