I'm crying myself to sleep for a pregnancy my wife ended at 1week. Keep asking myself why was that, what I could have done different for my wife to have kept it. I've never felt so heartbroken in my life. What gets my even more is my son asking me why he can't have a brother or a sister, he's a very caring person, shares everything no problem. If I was not deserving for a second, he sure is diserving a sibling. I wish you guys all the best! God bless!
Children are a blessing from the very start! I'm so sad to hear that not everyone feels the same. I'm so sorry for that fathers experience
@@BBSonofaNo. Didn't happen.
This man is an actor telling a phony story.
So support abolition. Not pro life
@@jimfleming3975do you have proof
As a father of three beautiful children... My heart goes out for Clementine's dad. Stay strong brother.
The guy should quit whining.
@@alanparedes2034 I was just wondering how some professionally useless childless man child felt about this.
Now I know.
@@alanparedes2034your Fcukin clueless mate.I have two beautiful children also.I can’t imagine what that fella is going through
❤
@@alanparedes2034I don't expect you to get it, but what would you do if your child was murdered? Your brother or sister even? Parents? Or perhaps you're sociopath as I think you know right from wrong but choose yo be a wanker.
I'm soon to be a father.
This made me cry. I'm so sorry for this man.🙏🏻☝🏻
D have been a really great dad.😢
Sir, you Are already a father. When a baby is conceived, you become a parent and no one can take that away from you, no one, period.
@@MaxEffortSooner me too 🥺💔
I am a dad of 2, never would force a woman to term.
@brumfed10 I think "forcing" is another very unfair use of the language - and again - usually against men. 🥺
If, in the vast majority of cases, a life is conceived in consensual circumstances, calling women to carry to term is not forcing anything. It's calling them (and their partners) to take responsibility *at least* until the child is born. Unless the woman's life is in danger, in which case, I support termination being offered.
That gentleman should be heard by every single person in this country.
as a moron
Never expected a man to deliver such a powerful argument against abortion-so clear and direct. Well spoken, sir. May God bless you and care for your unborn child.
My daughter starts kindergarten in 9 hours.. she’s the greatest thing to happen in my life. this man wouldve been a great father to her, I bet. Stay up brother
God bless you and keeps ur family safe and healthy 🙏🏽
I've never wanted to hug a stranger so bad in my life.
My heart goes out to these fathers that care .
ABOUT DAMN TIME!!! WE FATHERS HAVE RIGHTS AS WELL!!!
FIGHT! We real women are behind you and support you. I'm still holding out for a real man who finds we women, and all of life, worthy of love and protection. Don't go with the flow of this ^%$# sick pornified society that kills manhood, among other things.
YES ABSOULTELY SIR. I AGREE.
Well there are THOUSANDS of bad fathers already………..we should be holding them fully accountable. Child support from the minute of conception is a start. If thats a baby then, support it.
@@LosCoolArrows321 What does bad fathers existing have to do with men having rights over their children? Bad mothers exist too. Good point on the child support from conception or from the time the woman realizes she is pregnant. That would help her pay for the pregnancy and the care of the child after.
@@kylielynn9398 Apologies, it was in reference to the rights men have over children. Good, accountable ones(of which there are plenty) ones deserve all of their rights. Its the ones who act like they get the same rights simply for being a sperm donor i was referencing. These last 2 generations seem to have more than ever
I’ve never heard a father speak this way about a child they’ve been raising for decades.. This man would’ve nailed fatherhood and he had no say in the life of his child. Heartbreaking.
I say my wife and daughter are beautiful at least 20 times a day every day...
If Terri Shivo had a choice so did this guy. He could've called police, hired an attorney, paid his girlfriend as a surrogate. 😢😢😢
@@TheSatanicTwinkeyweird comment
We live in the age of instant gratification and and aversion to anything that interferes with that. Mother could have gone to term and give the child to the Dad, it was after all, the sperm donor.
No one knows, you are welcome to speculate but the future is always uncertain.
I remember my daughter's father being so proud to show off my belly, so excited for the future. We as a society don't talk about this enough. Men have emotions too, they have a say too. I feel so bad for this man, I pray our society gets it's act together soon. The hypocrisy is nauseating
The women who shout "My body, My choice" don't realize that the biological fathers can absolutely have an emotional stake in the decision whether or not to have an abortion. This man will live the rest of his life knowing that his first child's right to live as a human being was out of his control.
Nobody cares about men. Know this and know peace.
and if she had a miscarriage it would still deny him that, why arent people fighting against miscarriages as they do abortions?
@bunnykiller Wow, smooth brain syndrome at play here. Miscarriages are largely natural processes where the baby dies in the womb as opposed to being clamped to death wilfully by two living adults. I don't even care if you are pro-choice or life, but this question exposes extreme ignorance.
@@bunnykiller A miscarriage is not a choice. An abortion is. Miscarriages hurt the mothers, too.
The article was about abortions hurting fathers.
@@bunnykiller
That is a ridiculous statement! Women have abortions by choice. Miscarriages are not a choice! No comparison!
As a Father I would like nothing more than to give that man a hug. Brought tears to my eyes.
This needs to go viral! Get this out!! Incredible words from this man. If it only saves one unborn child, then it will be enough.
Only get a woman pregnant when both of you fully want to step up to the responsibility of becoming and being a parent. That saves women loads of heartache.
People tell woman they are pro life, but as soon as the child is born, the mother is all alone.
@@Esther-tg7yjnot always and I raised 3 on my own their fine and so am I!
That's the type of a story that no one wants to hear but everyone has to.
Disheartening. My condolences goes to this father. What's going on with this world?
@@comentaristametaforico9287
Seems far too many demons pretending to be human run the world.
they tell you the same story at planned parent hood. make you listen to the heartbeat. give you a pictures of the baby to make you change your mind before you make the choice. cant say anything unless you walk in someone elses shoes.
@@DKaine11 It doesn't matter if they do so, because they still end up ripping a human apart inside their mother...
@lillienwaligora6082 it's not a human being, but has the potential to be. These men can plant their seed in women that want to carry that pregnancy.
Humans have rights to their bodies. It's scary to see how you've detached yourselves from the fact that women are humans. Sentient, conscious and most importantly alive.
I’ve seen this before and I just watched it again, and I cry fresh tears today. I’m so sorry, I’m so so sorry.
This man has a loving fathers heart. A beautiful picture of a Fathers love for his little girl...God be with him
This man's heart is shattered. God bless and hold you close sir. Your words are so profound.
More fathers should stand and tell of their heartache after their baby was murdered by an abortionist.
After their baby was murdered by it's own mother, you mean. Abortionists wouldn't have jobs if women didn't pay them to kill.
The issue is the pro-abortion women just dismiss them simply because they are men and it's "not their bodies" which is hilarious.
The abortionist being the woman who had the choice, you can’t keep blaming doctors who have to work to life who have to do what their told because getting fired in Biden’s economy will make you want to get aborted.
@@nicholasbourcier oh a man who does not women to govern their own bodies -
By the "mother". It's not like the abortionist demon sought out the pregnant female (I will not call them a woman nor mother) and forced her to murder the baby.
My wife is currently 5 months pregnant and i am so excited to meet my daughter. If this happened to me I would be completely broken.
Good luck. Cherish the time you have with them when they are small even if it's hard because eventually it'll sneak up on you and you'll realize there was a last time you'll ever hold them in your arms. My son is 10 and my daughter is 8, and man it feels like yesterday when they were born.
Hope the rest of the pregnancy goes well. My exes didn’t, 38 weeks
Just remember to give your wife some slack when it comes to your kids women are very different from men when it comes to raising children...Dont piss her off.
But if she miscarriages it's ok because god intented that abortion right
Ok pal. Sounds sweet but go step on a Lego barefoot at 3 am and then come back to us.
I sobbed watching this it’s so gut wrenching to see this father’s pain.
I hope you sob just as much when a woman is forced to see a pregnancy through when the man isn’t like this gentleman, but abandons child and mother to fend for themselves and takes no responsibility. When she is left with both parenting roles and the sole financial burden. When the child is sent to daycare as early as day 30 to be looked after by strangers because the mom has to work and has no support. That is incredibly sad to me as well, but rarely do people sob for struggling single mothers
I love that he said her name IS Clementine and not WAS Clementine. She's still real and alive in his heart and heaven. As a fellow Father, I stand with you bro!
You will see her in heaven
This is so Beautiful to hear of real MEN who have a CONSCIENCE.
I know you'll have more children. It won't stop the rip in your heart, but one day you WILL be a father!
Unbaptized babies don't go to heaven .
That isn't what he meant, stop trying to inject religion. Atheist even know abortion is murder. Religion has NOTHING to do with his. Sad that all the liberal idiots that love abortion are 99% Atheist. Religion is not above common sense.
Most women aren’t made to be mothers… simple as that… especially in today’s society
As a father who never got to meet his children, my heart goes out to you brother. I lost my 2 girls when the woman I loved more than anything had a miscarriage at 6 months. I was at work when I got the call from her sister who drove her to the hospital. When I got there, I held her in my arms as she cried. I tried my best to be strong for her and to help her any way I could. Three months later, she passed away from grief. She appeared to be getting better, she was smiling again. I thought she was ok, so I went to work that day. Later, I got a call from her sister who came to stay with her while I was at work and she said that she was gone. She had went to go lay down to take a nap and when her sister went to check on her, she wasn't breathing. At the hospital, doctor's told me it was possibly a heart attack. When I told them she had a miscarriage 3 months ago, the looks on their faces changed. They said that "she more than likely just went to sleep." They explained to me that dying of heartbreak/grief is not uncommon but that it's not quite rare either. The pain I feel every day not having her here anymore, and the pain I felt when we lost our girls, I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy. We lost our girls December 17th, 2017. She passed away March 7th, 2018. I'm almost 32 and I haven't loved someone the same way I loved her. I fell into a deep depression after losing her. In May of 2019, I got my cat when she was a tiny kitten, 7 weeks old. I found her in a parking lot all alone and scared. I took her in and she saved my life. I named her Ellie after both of my daughters, who were gonna be named Eleanor and Elizabeth.
I didn't mean to make this as long as it turned out. But I understand this man's pain of losing a child. It's hard and I wouldn't wish that pain on anyone.
The only greater pain is when I lost the love of my life. We were together 3 and a half years before she passed. Aside from losing our girls, they were the best years of my life and those are memories I wouldn't trade for anything. She showed me what true love is and it's something you can't really explain. You can just feel it.
I love you, Nora. And I always will.
I am truly sorry for the painful losses of your beloved wife and daughters.
I feel your pain my condolences... Hope you are better they would want you to be happy in this life until yiu meet them..
❤take care.
So terribly sorry for your loss
I’m so sorry for your loss
“My daughter was torn apart”; that’s literal. 😔😢
This speech coming from a dad broke me we have so many men that are completely deadbeat dads out here that don’t care about their kids at all and we have men like him with a kind and loving heart.
Agree. Also, better to be alive with a deadbeat dad, then to have never been afforded the opportunity to try and overcome a difficult life.
At 5 months, I felt my son move inside me for the first time. Feeling him move was my favorite part of pregnancy. His precious daughter was ripped apart at that wonderful phase of development. That is a tragedy that is happening every day. This is something Anne Hathaway calls a "mercy". Shame on her.
@@ninaharper6282 I know as a mother myself of four I couldn’t do that.
@@patrickromero7136 so true
Oh that poor man. You can feel the pain he’s feeling. I cannot imagine what he must have gone through and is still experiencing. May God Bless him and give him Peace.😢
I'm so sorry for this man and for all the fathers who have had their babies and fatherhood stolen from them. 😔
“was my daughter beautiful” so heartbreaking. the world has rlly lost its mind. your daughter is in heaven

*She definitely is in Heaven and has forgiven her mother. Her mother now needs to repent to God.*

This man here speaking from his heart and soul, needs a bigger stage. God bless you.
Sorry for your loss, Clementine is smiling for what you said.❤
This is heartbreaking. I had a late pregnancy loss. I risked my life for the chance to save his, but he passed away in the womb. I still grieve him every day.
❤😢
I'm sorry for your loss, your baby is safe and loved with God ❤️
I'm so sorry for your loss. You are not alone, my dear.
When I got pregnant with our first daughter, I was told that if I didn't abort, the chances of us both dying were high. I refused. My little girl did not ask to be conceived. I felt that, as her mother, it was my unconditionally loving responsibility to give her the best chance at life that I could. So I did just that. Unfortunately, she did pass away later towards the end of the second trimester. I nearly went with her. I have no regrets. I'd do it again even if it killed me. I wouldn't have to even think about it.
Sending you so much love...❤
I'm sorry to hear that I hope you the best in the future tho
🙏🏽🙏🏽
I wish I could tell him I’m praying for him. July 20th just passed and I’m heartbroken for his family and Clementine. I promise I’ll be praying.
This poor man. She was beautiful... she does matter!!
Amen 🙏 RIP precious Clementine and Tristan 😢
*A friend of mine aborted her 6 month old child. Her boyfriend walked out on her and she was so overwhelmed. Her OBGYN pushed that abortion hard, and she went along with it. I begged her, pleaded with her for his life. I was a single mother of a 5 year old and a 1 year old baby at the time and I offered to adopt him. She refused and went ahead with the abortion. You don't know how much guilt I carry and HE wasn't my child and I wasn't carrying HIM. But, he will forever be etched into my heart and mind. Tristan, forgive me. I tried so very hard, I wish there was something more I could have said to your mother. You would be 25 years old now. I think about you all the time. Forgive me, please forgive me for not doing more. 😢
Thank you for giving her a name. She was old enough to save if she were born premature. It's about playing God with life.
@cherylmunro8232
AMEN 🙏 My friend had actually already named him, she and her boyfriend. That is BEFORE he dumped her and left her to deal with it alone. I know Tristan is with JESUS, but it still hurts. 💔💔💔
Not anymore

How cruel. 😨 What an awful thing to say. Have some compassion 💜
Powerful testimony. Fathers’ love is so big. They deserve to be parents.
50,000,000 children looking for parents - there is NOTHING stopping him from adopting.
@@sallysmith920 what an ignorant response - he’s crying for HIS child. Has nothing to do with other kids.
Men need help grieving their babies. As will the moms when they come to realize what they did.
🎯💯
So true. One of the pro-life organizations in my area does counseling for people pre and post abortions. Nobody talks about it. So nobody thinks it’s out there. But it is. There is one in my area. And I bet there is one in this gentleman’s area. I hope he can find it and get counseling and find a support group to help him go through this grieving process. I hope his story can save many lives. We love you Clementine. We will keep your story alive.
Men rarely get Jack shit from society, friends, family when it comes to this topic
These are not "mothers". Mothers will lay down their life to protect their children.
It never leaves you. I know people who had abortions 30,40,50 years ago (I have a lot of friends) and it really never leaves your mind and it leaves guilt you can never really heal from. We need compassion for both sides (like this gentleman has for his ex partner). But this is what happens when we dehumanize and trivalize what life really is.
ABORTION should have the consent of the father with full support.
If your friends are asking why you are crying over someone you've never met before, you need to find different friends.
Absolutely. But in transitioning way from them, maybe he can change the way they see this issue. Maybe he can have humanized these preborn babies to his circle of friends.
You shouldnt cry over someone you never met, thats creepy/cringy. Its a unborn child of his, now thats a realistic reason to cry.
@@08turboSSSorry but, obviously he's talking about his friends that say that about his unborn child.
@@08turboSSCelebrities, politicians, influencers.

Thank you for speaking up. As a man who's gone through the same thing and silenced everytime I spoke about it, was told that I'm not allowed to feel anything about it and even to this day almost 10 years, still hurt about it. I appreciate you standing up, I think more of us should.
I'm so sorry your child ŵas taken from you. I'm 100% sure she is in heaven, in God's loving arms. I will pray for you sir
I can't relate to feeling what you felt. My two kids were born healthy. But I think I can relate through the love I have for them as a father. I'm sorry for what you had to endure. Please do not let yourself be silenced.
@matthewbessum,your story,your grief matters.Thank you for your comment,for speaking up❤
I ADORE that he states that he IS a father. He had a daughter, and she was taken from him, and he speaks out for justice for her. He is an amazing dad.
The one who took the choice to take it away from him was his wife or fiance.
He's not the one having to give birth or carry it for 9 months. He needs to get over it.
@@Nshxywvrz they also had unprotected sex knowing what could happen. You don’t get to hit a reset button by killing a baby. So grow up
@cooperhd4550
🫱🏾🫲🏻thank you, you're 💯🎯
@@cooperhd4550there is a reset button actually, they call it abortion. This guy wants to get on stage and guilt trip people over his wife's decision making process. They could have kept the baby. No one told them not to. He even stated in his own words the wife decided to have the abortion not him he did not want too. So why is he here ? What's his point ? What is he really trying to prove to us. They had unprotected sex and the consequence was a baby. The wife was not prepared and choice an action which resulted in the death of her baby. Now she regrets it. Who's at fault? Who's to blame? The People in charge of the law or the lady who opened her legs then had second thoughts about her consequences and tried to run from them and now realizes that's not how it works. It is the ladies fault. No one should feel bad for him, he blew his load into her knowing the possibilities are endless. Don't be fooled by a sad voice. Look at the truth. Be responsible for your own self. He is not a father, he would have been a father. His baby was not taken from him , it was aborted by his wife. Facts are facts and delusions are delusions.
This should be played everywhere! This man is a TRUE man and father.

Ask for near death experience once in your life..perhaps , maybe you realize you are not just the body..
@@ricardusdanisworo3086
Near-death experiences are just the brain bugging and reacting to extreme stress and danger. There is nothing extraordinary nor supernatural about that.
The impression to feel yourself "fly" over your own body and see yourself from an exterior point of view IS simply a process called "dissociation". It's basically a shock reaction and it's also a very common symptom of sexually abused and traumatized people.
It is simply a way for your brain to deal with the trauma that is happening. And DEATH is itself a an extreme trauma.
There is absolutely nothing remotely mysterious about that.
@@petitesayo4542 so you have experience death before? Try and comeback..according to NDE people, is a life changing experience..

“Fathers speak up” is what many men do but sadly you were one of the very few that would actually listen. Just like the father that was in the video he cried and begged. But his daughter was still taken from him. Keep in mind I’m not trying to bash you I’m just trying to say that many men who would have probably made good fathers can’t experience the beauty that is raising children because his partner decided that his voice didn’t matter to her.

That made me cry. I'm pregnant now (3 months along), and I couldn't imagine losing my precious baby. He pokes me in the bladder nonstop and hates sugar, and my cats love to lay on me and put their ears against my belly to listen to him. Babies are precious and beautiful, and they deserve to live. Even I worried about how to raise a kid and how that would change my own life, but from the beginning, I felt him fighting to live. He deserves life.
Congratulations, I am so happy for you and I will pray for you and your baby 💜

I cried too. I have an 8 month baby. I loved him the moment I found out I was pregnant. ❤
Congratulations, God bless you
3 months and is kicking? Ayayayay... Com'on
😢😢So powerful, I cried the first time I heard him speak and I still cry every time. She had purpose, value and God given worth. The loss is incalculable from Clementine’s passing and all the murdered children. God will not let the America get away with this. We are fast approaching a reckoning.
Im a mother, I had 2 miscarriages before I had my daughter. Her father wanted me to abort, but I absolutely did not want to. I had her, and he now regrets even asking me to. She's going to be 3 in October. I don't understand how someone could go through with some thing like that. My daughter is sitting in my lap telling me not to cry, but this touched my heart.
To Clementines father on the screen, I bet she was beautiful! I guarantee she was. I bet she had a heart of gold. I will remember her name. Keep fighting the fight. Dads deserve a voice, too.
Kudos to your kids father for changing his mind. I'm sure he thinks about that thought every day and it hit different when your daughter arrived. Well done for giving birth to her anyway. I'm sure didn't do it to spite him but because your daughter will change your lives for the better and he would appreciate it eventually.
Thank you so much.
may God bless you and your family forever
My very naughty granddaughter will be 3 in October as well. 😊
Yeah usually it's the men who want to abort the baby not the woman. And when a woman does go through an abortion it's kinda of a last resort thing. She usually looks at if the man will be there for her and not leave her and their child.
Nearly 70% of women with a history of abortion describe their abortions as inconsistent with their own values and preferences, with one in four describing their abortions as unwanted or coerced,
Say it twice my brother. I just lost my handicap brother. He was not supposed to live past 5 years of age. Last month we celebrated his 60th birthday. We shared the many moments of joy that my brother gave us. He couldn't speak , had one leg shorter than the other, his right arm was deformed. But he had a smile and a wave. You will not believe the number of people who showed up to his funeral. Not bad for a kid who was not supposed to live. ❤ I am so sorry for your lose sir. Clementine will be remembered ❤❤
She is now sleeping in the grave waiting for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ,then the Judgement.
I am so sorry for your loss. ❤
So sorry for you loss but so happy you got the time you did with him.
"was my daughter beautiful" broke my heart. Yes brother I'm sure she was and I'm sorry that this happened.
Perhaps the most powerful instinct of a normal father is the desire to protect his children.
As a father who has lost a child it breaks my heart to hear these stories. He will never forget.
im sorry how you feel, but i am pro-choiche. i do think if one of the 2 people that would raise a baby isnt ready or cant financially or emotionally then the kid shouldnt get born.
you might say its murder, but then the fact is, why arent you producing and getting pregnant this instant? you are murdering at this moment for a potential baby to come on earth
How does he speak so well? I'm sobbing for his daughter and for his daddy-heart. I have so much respect for him and his openness.
The only way is because God is giving him the strength to pass on the message. Maybe that message will fall on the right ears and save a life.
Probably lying.

Stand up fathers against abortion!
Stand up humans against abortion!
If father's where given more rights there would be a lot less abortions
Men should really get even and abstain. That would end this issue for them.
@SIP123abc 💯. If he/she is not fit for marriage. He or she should not be someone you should be laying with. Not the other way round. God’s design for marriage was perfect, and the more we defer to our selfish ways, the more chaos, hurt, and destruction we leave behind. People are often so quick to blame the shortcomings of the world on God, but in reality, it's our own choices that have led the world to what it is today. Society needs to turn back to God.

I just had a realization: my mom came really close to aborting me. She’s told me the story SEVERAL times in front of the whole family. However, I never realized that my dad never tried to stop her, nor did he ever try and protect me. I’ve never heard him stand up for me in any way. I’m sure he would have been relieved if she had gone through with her plans.
Protect this man at all cost. I feel incredibly deeply for his loss.
I'm so sorry. That's got to suck about your mom telling everyone how she almost ended your life.
We should pass laws to make men like these people fathers. Maybe it was a long distance relationship.
I am so sorry both your mom and dad put you through that trauma. You are valuable and deserved to be loved for the blessed you are. Jesus loves you, and wants to show you the love and protection your father never could.

I truly hope he finds peace and can heal, but I think he'll always have that hole in his heart bless him 😢 I can't believe his friends can't even support him. The wife is obviously going through her own mental strains if she made this choice (I think it was a bad one) so it's understandable if she can't even though it was her decision in the end. That's her weight for making that choice. I hope she feels it as deeply as he does, not from spite but in the hopes of bringing them closure by letting her understand how her choice hurt him.

I've been filming these videos with Kristan for a long time. This moment was powerful. Anyone with a pulse in that room shared in a real human experience.
I will remember Clementine.
Many years ago I was violently raped...
Arm broken,4 ribs broken,both eyes swelled shut and I had been ripped open (in my southern area)
I found out 3-4 months later I was pregnant...
I gave birth to a 12.7lb /24.5in long baby boy....
Today he's 15(he will be 16 June 5th) and 6'7/240lbs
I was told to get an abortion,put him up for adoption,every time I look at him I'll be reminded of what happened..
I REFUSED abortion,I refused adoption and when I look at him I see my beautiful son!
Who in my eyes is absolutely perfect ❤
When I met my husband my son wasn't even a year old yet..he adopted my son and he loves him as his own ...he's the only dad my son has...
My son heard me and my husband talking about how I got pregnant with him and he asked me if I regret having him...
I told him"God gave him to me for a special reason and that I'd lay down a million times over just to have him each time...
I'm watching this video with my infant daughter literally asleep in her bassinet next to me. My heart, as a father, could not take the crushing weight of knowing something as beautiful as her was ripped apart. May God give this man peace. Doctors performing these are guilty of murder and the destruction of something precious and beautiful beyond the justice of words.
Good thing your wife/GF was able to make the choice that was right for her.
@@CharlestonChicathe choice to not murder their child.
@@CharlestonChicaShe should've made her choice 5months before there was a possibility of a pregnancy
@CharlestonChica It's nothing short of demonic to think that murder out of convenience is reasonable when birth control is so highly effective. It's a lack of responsibility that results in over 99% of abortions. Less than 1% of abortions are the result of grape or incest. That means the remaining amount is due to narcissism and a lack of personal accountability. Plus, you're probably the type that expects fathers to pay to support a child but have no say in whether or not the child lives.
As a woman and mother of 3. I hope more men make a stand. This is murder of the most Innocent life's.
I've seen this clip before, it damn near makes me cry every time. I can only hope that I love my children HALF as much as this man.

This breaks my heart hearing his story. Abortion doesn't just affect women. The men are affected as well.
My daughter's name is Lily. She was born at 37 weeks and weighed 4 pounds 2 oz. She stayed in NICU for 4 days. She had a gargantuan will to thrive, and today, she is 34 years old and has 2 daughters of her own. My heart breaks for this man.
Big difference between 37 weeks and 22 weeks.
At 22 weeks they aren't developed yet and wouldn't survived.
I was born at 31 weeks I guess (9 weeks early), I weighed 2 lbs 9 oz, and my right lung collapsed. They rushed me to a nearby hospital with a NICU, where they reinflated my lung, gave me all the care and attention I needed to survive. I am an Eagle Scout, spent 12 years in US Navy, and am a husband and father of three beautiful girls. My life mattered and those Doctors and Nurses treated me as a human and kept me alive! They didn't just throw me in the garbage as a fetus! That's how you know that abortion is wrong!

I don't understand what kind of woman could kill her baby with the loving father right there begging her not to do it.
Yep. A special kind of evil.
No sometimes hormones can cause woman to go though horrible things if you listened he said his wife was not in right state of mind and that she regretted it later. She was not evil she just had no one other than her husband fighting for her and her baby so sorry for their loss. 😢
@@lindsay6299 I've had three kids. There are NO hormones during pregnancy that will make you want to kill your baby. Every instinct in your body during that time is to protect and nurture that growing life. The hormone crash after pregnancy can sure mess with your head, but she wasn't at that point yet. Many women regret having abortions, that's just something that isn't talked about.

That's exactly why abortion should be completely outlawed. If it hadn't been an option, she may not have agreed to kill her baby
But I agree with the above comment. When I was pregnant with my daughter, everything in my body and mind told me to protect her. Never once did I think about murdering her and I was in a very hard situation with undiagnosed mental illness. There is no excuse for murdering the most precious gift you could ever recieve.

If anyone ever says five months is "just a fetus," I was born prematurely at 5 months and am now a healthy, fully functioning adult. I can never thank my mother enough for giving me the life I have. Doctors encouraged her to abort me, and she refused. I'm so blessed that she saw me as a human at 5 months.
Your mother is a good woman! Stay blessed!
You're so lucky 😲. Lungs are immature till 6 months. It is very rare for a 5 month baby to survive.
Literally zero people who have ever experienced pregnancy would consider a 5 month old pregnancy to be “just a foetus”… I’m 4 months pregnant right now and my baby is kicking and moving around as I write this….. the earliest premature baby was born at 20 weeks and survived.
Inside the womb is an embryo, born is a baby but it's not just about categorization.
@@bulletanarchy6447Wrong. It's an embryo fpr about the first 8-12 weeks. Then it becomes a fetus, an unborn baby.

My son was born prematurely at 5 months. I can tell you that he was like any other baby in terms of feeling pain, crying, smiling. He lived for 8 months in ICU as the only thing that wasn't fully formed were his lungs. It absolutely kills me to imagine someone ripping a baby apart like that. He was 1lb 10oz when he was born, 100% human baby.
As a NICU RN that take care of ELBW babies we take children 22 weeks and up but the survival rate of these preemies is actually VERY low and even more so if we break it down further to gender and race … with love no preemie that young is “fully developed besides their lungs” … I say this to say it’s a reason why the doctor more than likely offered you the opportunity to hold your infant instead of resuscitate and neither decision is better than the other .. same with abortion
My son was born 3 months early, 1lb 13.8oz. He spent 85 days in the nicu. He’s now a healthy and vibrant 13 year old. We had two losses and tried for 10 years to have a child before he came into our lives. He and I survived sudden onset severe HELLP.
I can’t imagine the aborting that late.

To feel the baby moving in my womb, then have my body reject the baby, is an indescribable pain. Thank God for this man, and I pray he finds peace.
I had twin girls at 20+3 weeks. The ER nurses amd the ambulance man all fought to keep them alive until the head of the NICU came and demanded that they stop. That was in 2012. I wonder if those nurses still think of that day. They didnt want to stop.
My heart goes out to him, five months. Poor sweet little angel.👼
A few inches of flesh doesn't mean he didn't meet his daughter. He heard her heartbeat, saw her form and stood in the same room as her. Children in the womb are present with us.

That’s not true. I know of women that have had both and don’t think this way.
My ex asked me to abort my child. He went to the appointment with me, didn't even look at my son in the sonogram. I stood my ground, fought and brought my child to this world. I am proud of my son and myself.
Every child deserves a man like this.
i was still in the middle of my abusive family, couldn’t work due to ptsd, and was addicted to many substances. i couldn’t look at the sonogram. i wanted my baby, but i knew that he/she could end up dead or horrifically abused. i have a lot of adoption in my family and none of it worked out, so i wasn’t about to give my baby away either. i have a long history of medical trauma, and i was convinced ( for good reason) that i may die in childbirth, if not sooner. i was also struggling with seizures at the time, and my pregnancy prevented me from keeping anything down. i handled the hunger, the vomiting, the seizures, and the fainting, alone in my apartment, for weeks. i passed out in the kitchen trying to grab myself an apple, and when i passed out, i hit my head on the door hinge of the pantry. i was out for at least five hours, and what woke me up was a premonition of my parents looking at my naked, vomit covered body in absolute disgust. i’m pretty sure i almost died that day. i didn’t call 911, because i already had before and they just told me to go to my doctor (i can’t afford one).
am i proud of aborting my baby? not really. but i believe that god gives us some time to figure things out. that’s why 20% of pregnancies end in miscarriage. our bodies get a trial period ( the first trimester) and i believe that’s god allowing us to be in control of creation, which is something he clearly wants us to do by allowing us to create new people. there’s an obvious difference between medicinal and surgical abortion, and i think the longer we kid ourselves, the longer we’re going to be aborting actual babies. there’s a reason we call it a fetus. it’s not the same and it’s important to make that distinction because when you don’t, you put women in danger. it’s possible that only fetuses in the first trimester should even be called a fetus, but we’re all too busy virtue signaling to talk about that.
Reading this I’d suggest you stop having sex knowing what the consequences could be.
99% of men are not like this. So what now?

“Why isn’t my daughter human enough for people to care”. That cut deep. This man doesn’t deserve to have to go through this pain.
Care about what exactly? He had sex with someone that wasn't sure she wanted a baby . Did he use protection ? Was he gr*ped ? That would be a different case . What am I supposed to care about? They weren't forced to abort or to have sex . Is it sad that a father that wanted a child didn't get to have her ? Yes . But what's the solution according to him ? Forcing the woman to give birth ? And that doesn't violate anyone ? It's a situation where you have to put one person's wishes above the other . So whose wish are we going to honor ? The person that has the foetus inside her body or the person that doesn't ? Because in either situation the baby isn't choosing anything .
It’s not about people caring it’s about the Mother of the fetus caring. She’s the one who went through with the abortion at 5 month… that’s too far along for anyone to consider the pregnancy an accident. She did it out of spite and hate. Any sane person would realize 5 months is too far along for any abortion, that thing inside her stomach is now a baby
Amen
Well if she is disconected from her momma it means she is not developed enough to live, and her momma doesnt want her inside of her no more...
No it's not human enough. For 5 months or 20 wks fetus, no lungs maturity, no organogenesis, only heart beat can be heard. A mother has all the right to abort it, who's carrying it. This is all nonsense.
