My Partner is Pressuring Me to Have an Abortion, But I’m Not Sure

While it’s important to make a pregnancy decision in a timely manner, you never want to feel rushed or pressured into choosing a specific option. Your partner cannot pressure you into having an abortion; this is illegal.

Understanding their point of view can provide clarity, but setting boundaries around an unplanned pregnancy is crucial. Care Net Pregnancy Center of Paradise supplies the emotional support you need to learn about your options without pressure.

Your Partner’s Point of View

Consider your partner’s point of view. Were you scared or anxious when you shared the pregnancy news? Do they feel they aren’t ready to parent?

These feelings are understandable. Even when you’re pregnant, your partner could be feeling the weight of this situation. Discussing these feelings and deciding their role moving forward can be beneficial.

If you feel comfortable, you both can attend a pregnancy options appointment at Care Net Pregnancy Center of Paradise. You’ll receive information on abortion, adoption, and parenting. Your partner can ask questions and better understand the pregnancy option you’re considering.

Remember, abuse of any kind is never acceptable. If you’re in an abusive relationship, know that you matter and deserve safety. The National Domestic Violence Hotline offers 24/7 support and resources.
