MUST READ; 11-year-old R*ped girl Speaks " I Will Keep And Love My Baby

This is a painful decision. An 11-year-old girl, Belén, who was r*ped by her stepfather and said she will keep her child despite the tragic circumstances of her conception. I am going to love her a lot, no matter what – even if she is from that man who hurt me.” said Belén.  That man who hurt her, her stepfather is currently in jail awaiting trial. Ab*rtion advocates are making a fuss, and saying that Belén is too young to know the implications of her decision, or else is not being offered fair options (i.e., no one is offering to k*ll her baby) for her pregnancy. They would rather see Belén as a young woman who is the mother of a d*ad baby than as a young woman who bravely yet happily faced the joys and hardships that accompany being a mother at her young age..
.. 

Perhaps Belén recognizes that in the end, the joy of a new life outweighs and outlives the sorrow of how it came to be. Belén received praise and encouragement from the president of her country, Sebastian Pinera. Belén surprised all with words that demonstrated depth and maturity when she said that despite the pain that the man who had r*ped her had caused, she was going to love and care for her newborn. Although ab*rtion advocates decry lack of access to ab*rtion in countries like Chile citing danger to the mother’s life, they say Belén should ab*rt, yet they fail to recognize that Chile actually put women first. This is how Pinera explained it during his address, “Chile’s first concern is the life of the mother,” he said, “when Belén’s pregnancy reaches 22 weeks, that is, eight weeks from now, if it is necessary a doctor will induce a premature birth in accordance with her care, because in our country the life of the mother always comes first.” What a bravery.
