Abortion: Forgivable or Unforgivable?

A young woman aborts her baby to avoid the social stigma of being an unwed mother. Does this woman deserve forgiveness? I don't think she does. What this woman did, was end her own child's life. We don't know if she really wanted to keep her baby, but I'm guessing she didn't. But there are many other options out there, for an "unwanted" child, besides killing. The child could have been put into an orphanage, or taken to another family, or given to someone inside the mother's family, who would have been happy to care for the newborn baby. But, the woman didn't think that she had any other options, other than abortion. She wanted to avoid any means of social contact, like the media for example, because the baby was without a father. There are plenty of women in the world, who have children of their own, and who are raising them without a man by their side. And who talks about that? Not very many people, that I know of. So, really, that woman had nothing to be afraid of. If she had kept her child, she would have been accepted as who she was. No one would have been upset that she kept the baby. It was her child, not anyone else's. But, she didn't want anyone to think less of her, so that's why she got an abortion. She didn't have to kill her child. There were plenty of other options for her to choose from. Abortion was not the only one. If the baby were still alive today, then maybe the woman would have thought differently about what could happen. Maybe she would have decided to keep her baby, and raise the child. Taking a life, I think, is unforgivable. And, that woman decided that her child should not live it's life, because her life, would get complicated if the baby was there. So, thinking that everyone would see and think less of the woman, she gave up her baby to abortion. That is why, I think, that the woman does not deserve forgiveness.
