Do you feel like Daytime Television.. ( soap opera's ) are starting to glorify teenage abortion

I feel like they are making it seem like abortion is the only answer. Instead of helping show that their is also adoption.. and for some teenage parenthood. I know it's a controversial situation that's why I just want honest opinions.

I wouldn't use the word glorify. I think they want to make pre-teens and teenagers AWARE of the circumstances that they could entail after unprotected sex.

Parents need to have the sex talk at an early age and help them to understand the consequences of sex.

There's a story on OLTL now and I think they'll go the adoption route. They're copying the story from Juno.

Yes, I think they do. It was brought up with Lily pregnancy and remember Lulu Spencer had an abortion last summer. Just another example of people avoiding the consequences of their actions. There is nothing glorious or favorable about abortion. (Lulu is on General Hospital)
They should be glorifying abstinence. Or at the very least birth control. But you are right - it seems to be the thing these days on the soaps with teenage pregnancies.
I don't think they are glorifying it, Starr is not going into this happy. She is desperate and thinks it is the only way out. Her father will kill Cole, she said they did not go all the way and so now she would have to tell the truth. I think they are showing teens that it is not an easy decision, and to use protection, that only having sex once could lead to a pregnancy. She feels she must sacrifice her baby's life for the life of her lover. Langston is pointing out the bad of having an abortion, how could she live with this decision for the rest of her life etc.
When I saw Starr in the clinic today, I thought about Lulu on GH. That's 2 too many thoughts about abortion for me. I don't like to even think about it much less watch it on TV. I think a teenage pregnancy that actually had a happy or semi-happy ending would be nice for a change...........
So im not sure about which soaps you watch but most of the teens are seniors in high school or are in college so wether they have sex, or on the pill or whatever its just a show its for the purpose of tv. Teens are going to do what they want once they are 17+. And parents just have to believe that they did the best job raising their child. Many parents force their views on abortion down their child's throat. but i think that the shows are just making the options known. On a side note ppl should just stop trying to take away a woman's right to choose what to do with her body. i hate ignorant ppl. sry just had to get that out there.
no,,,I don't think glorify would be the word,,,I think it would be more like a option%26lt;%26lt;next to adoption%26gt;%26gt;some woman couldn't carry a baby and give away ,,,even if they know that it would be better for the baby.

If your talking about Y%26amp;R,,,Devon did bring up the option of adoption%26lt;%26lt;%26lt;I think this willl make a good summer story-line to show the young girls that they do need to be more carefull in their decisions when it comes to unplanned pregnancy.
