Murdering Forgiveness

A young women aborts her baby to avoid the social stigma of being an unwed mother; when posed with this statement I feel that this mother shows how shallow she is. She killed her own child so that it would not be viewed as an illegitimate child. This mother obviously reveals that the worry of her social status overcomes compassion for her child; if she was to birth an illegitimate child the societies prospective of her would be skewed. This portrays her vanity. She cares only for her reputation instead of letting the love for her child overpower her self-admiration. These acts do not deserve any kind of forgiveness; she murdered her child to keep her reputation.
