Male Female

So the important decision that I have ever made in my life is not about my child. When I was an adolescent, I engaged in sexual activities and then I ended up falling pregnant. My family and friends advised me to abort the pregnancy, but due to fear of sinning against God and also due to fear of complications, I decided to keep the baby. This was one of the hardest decisions I ever made in my life. I thank God that today my child is now 10 years old, and this gives me the power to thrive and to care for my child because I want him to be a very successful person. I sacrificed a lot because of my child, and I adore him. I pray for him to be someone in life. This taught me not to make unwise decisions through the influence of people and the influence of peers.
