The Society And Mary's Unforgettable Experience - A True Life Story

Mary had been a good girl all her life, she had pretty much avoided every social vice and immoral behaviour her parents had warned her about, boys, immoral sex, drugs, parties, indecent dressing etcetera. She was your ideal well brought up African child. But her innocence did not last very long. Her first sexual experience happened at gunpoint with three or was it four strange men, armed robbers Who had broken into her home in the dead of night.

She could not tell how many had their way with her that night because she had passed out on the third masked man. The pain had been unbearable for her 16-year-old body. She woke up in a hospital bed a few hours later. The doctor stitched her up and sent her home. She was broken, she cried herself to sleep every night. Three months later, just when it seemed like she would survive her misfortune, her abdomen started to swell. She was always weak and tired, some unexplainable nausea would not let her eat. Even when she did, she threw it right back out.

Her guardians took her back to the hospital, the doctor confirmed her worst fear, she was pregnant! She was only a child, she could not live through the trauma and pain of childbirth. Birthing the seed of one of three or was it four armed robbers who used her on that day. She could not deal with the pressure and stigma that comes with underaged pregnancies in our society. She would have to drop out of school, which is normally the first thing first. Her friends would leave her behind.

She would become an object of public ridicule and hate like it was her fault she got raped by three or was it, four armed robbers. What kind of life would she offer her bastard child? " Mommy who is my dad ", " Oh your dad was one out of three or four robbers who savagely took away my virginity when I was only 16 years old ". 

(Personally, I wouldn't survive a childhood memory like that). Mother and child would be constantly stigmatized and marginalized by both family and society for the rest of their miserable lives. No child deserves to go through such cruelty, she had her whole life ahead of her, she should not have to go through all that emotional bondage. So she opted for an abortion, society crucified her anyway, saying that " She is a murderer! "

Our society's moral standard is so twisted it scares me, our society is so morally conscious we applaud people who bear children they cannot possibly afford both emotionally, financially and psychologically and call it God's blessings. (God shall provide). These same people who condemn abortion and breathe hellfire and brimstone on anyone who does it, would not adopt someone else's child, not even if they are as rich as Gates.

They would rather spend years running from one miracle house to the other, spending millions of cash on different " Men of God " seeking divine intervention so they could bear their own children when there are millions of orphaned kids around the world living in the streets with no parents to care for them. These same people would never allow their son to marry a single mother. Notwithstanding how refined her character may be or how pitiable the situation that put her in that condition was.

Our society simply condemns and judges without providing any practical or rational solutions to the problems of the affected individuals. Maybe it is just me, but when it comes to morality, I think our society misses it by a couple of a thousand miles. There are many evils in this world but the one I consider the worst is bringing children into this world to suffer.
