“Lizette was a good Christian girl. So too was Kerine. They both grew up in Christian homes and were very active in their local churches. They sang on the choir, went religiously to prayer meetings, Bible study and fasted.

But Lizette was living a double life, one which led her to have seven abortions – one involving twins – between ages 20 and 26.

And Kerine, who was “in and out” of church in her teen years, aborted two pregnancies, the first when she was 13, the other six years later at 18.” (more…)

I’m curious, under what circumstances was the first young lady in that she had so many abortions over a short period of time. Is birth control not readiy available in Jamaica?

I think abortion is and not right.The jamaicagoverment should band abortion from the country.Thatis my comment thank you
Alison

Yes we have a varity of birth controls in JAMAICA and teenage pregnancy is all over the globe. we can’t blame this on the women/girls only the MEN play a large role in this so they should wear a condom.

Secondly people make thier own choices so they should be able to sufer the consequences and being a christian has nothing to do with it we are all humans.

These walking cemeteries are just a few of the abortees in Jamaica. They seek real love, and do not this comes from God.

They cannot blame God. They put themselves in this predicament. God gave them free choices but turn to the devil. It was not God, it is them leading alternative lives.

God can forgive though and have mercy on them. But please, anyone going through the routine of abortions, do not blame God, it is your free will going after the world, but temporary fulfillment. Others take heed!!!

Abortion is a sin . It is murder and should not be done. The truth is everyone will stand before their maker and that is the crux of the matter. However, let us not judge anyone lest they make it into God’s kingdom and we don’t. I pray that these ladies will be sorry for thier sins and repent before God because only he alone forgives sins

i think abortion is very wrong and it is sin but it all depends on the situations
Frances

I am glad I did not know how to get an abortion when I was a pregnant 16 year old because I probably would have.

I had my first child at 16 and had to drop out of high school. No regrets, she is a beautiful, intelligent woman in corporate America today.

I know the fear and panic that comes with a teenage pregnancy so I will not judge anyone. I just want to say that although I had to drop out of school then, I am a psychologist today.

There are alternatives to abotion, it is difficult but God will help you through it.

Hello,

I was so upset when I read that information about the two young ladies who have done more than one abortions, yet I cant comdemn them. I am in my middle thiries and I am still a virgin, I was brought up in a very poor home but God took up through. I am a christian and I have been through many things, men offer me money for sex but God kept me. I just want to saw that if you are in church you can abstain from sex until you are marry, many will not believe this but it is true.
I just dont understand,what about protection? Abortion
is wrong it’s a sin, it is the murdering of a someone whether we believe it or not.

Abortion is wrong, however, there are certain circumstances under which abortion can be ok. eg. rape victims and in life and death situations. I am 17 and still a virgin, however, if i decide to have sex and get pregnant i am bringing the child, bcuz that child can become the next Prime minister or something good but if u abort it all it will ever be is a dead foetus!

I won’t condemn anyone who have done abortions, but i believe that people should take responsibility for their actions. Abortion is wrong but God will forgive if people truly repent and that means turning away from the wrong. God is able to keep anyone who is willing to be kept by Him. He has kept me throughout my life and I remained a virgin until I got married at age 38years.

My heart goes out to these poor people, I hope they may see themselves and dont fall in such a situation again
lorna

abortion it wrong, totally wrong. it is murder . anyone who does it should go to prison.
Renae

We cannot condemn people for their choices, I was once in that situation, because I was frightened and because the man said we werent ready. I was faced with it a second time but stood firm and thanks be to god my daughter is pretty, smart and a bright girl. So when we hear people’s story, we should pray for them and those who have intentions for doing so. Believe me its a frightening experience, but it is a selfish one and I hope persons who have any intentions of doing so to think before you do so. remember despite the circumstances, no jamaican child will suffer, there is breastt milk until u decide to stop, lots of fruits, vegetables, groound provision hand me down clothes. PLEASE DONT DO IT. IT HAUNTS YOU FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE. becuase right now iam suffering mentally as a result, but I think God forgave me when i made my decision with my second pregnancy
lorraine

The case of abortion should be legalized by jamaica government however dont get me wrong for reasons for eg if threaten the mother life or in the case of rape, however this topic doesnt have the correct name, these two are in no way christian. it sad to know they took so may lives but i think they can turn to GOD. It is something they will live with for the rest of there life but who me to comdemn. TRUST IN GOD!!!
melissa

theres nothing wrong with abortion why bring a child here to suffer if you dont want to be bother i”m all for abortion
carol

I dont think we have the right to judge anyone , yes, it is not right and yes there are other alternative but when you are face with such a decision we aften make the wrong one, i have been there and i pray everyday and ask God for forgiveness. Its something that you never forget and it hunts you day and night so for those who are thinking of doing it please think twice and ask God to help you and show you the way he will deliver you.

Abortion in my opinion is wrong,because its against the will of God.Many comment’s here come from the heart,but the heart can be treacherious and who can know it ,say’s the LORD.So if we as society,looks at abortion as ok ,its in disagreement with the will of God. If that is a concern for any pregnanat woman,young or old,it is her moral choice to deside what she want’s to do about it,and not socieity’s.True,she must ultimitly answer for her conduct, at some point in time,but we ,must be removed from all judgment as she excercizes her descision.As for young teenagers,sex is against God’s will,let alone abortion.So its a double capital offense against God’s will.And this is not a judgement,it is the truth. If God teaches us his likes and dislikes,and we go contrary to that,that is not a judgement for we are not ignorent but taught people,it is therefore not a sin on our part if we condem this sort of conduct.As for secular law condeming abortion,it is in their power to do so,without predjudise or malice.In my country the girles would be cut and become sterilized.Thus a soulution for their nemfo behavior. Amen!

To the ladies, Jesus died for our sins and mistakes.
You will see your Chlidren again in heaven. Now the only thing you can do is to have a closer walk with God.
Forgive yourself and relly ask God to forgive you. It is the only way to Save your self and future children.
Please know that you can recover and feel worthy of love

Thats terrible,life isnt as antiseptic as we wish it to be.not to condone anything..murder is murder..rape is rape,stealing is stealing etc…but humans are a desperate creature indeed.
Raymond Banton

To the young ladies who use abortion as birth control. Think about the
future, when you meet a man who you really love, and he marry you, and then
he want to have a child with you and you cannot have one. Then what would
you do? Because after so many abortions your uterus could be damaged.
