I won't lie, reading this stung a bit because I'm one of those wild oats grown up and my mother reminded me ever so often that I should be grateful to her she didn't abort me or give me away.
I obviously personally can't advocate for abortion in a situation like this, because it would be literally advocating against my own existence and I've been there, done that. What I will say though, is that the betrayal by men that leads to situations like this, definitely has the potential to turn into hate for your children. You will have to basically be a saint or employ therapy from day 1 for it not to happen.
My mother started hating me and seeing my as her competition as soon as I hit puberty and it never really stopped. A few years ago I found a stash of photos from where they were together and I really do look like a perfect mix of both their traits. She probably had to deal with seeing a shadow of his face on mine every day, especially as I grew older, and couldn't handle it.
I'm happy to have been born, but boy has my mother given me hell about it. Even though she married afterwards, insisted she loved me and I had a normal home growing up, she just had to remind me that I wasn't meant to be there.

Ha! The thing about therapy is you have to know and believe you need it, which will never happen and is too late at this point. Not to mention, I always take my time when it comes to being an armchair psychologist. Like, I agree she would definitely benefit from it, but even I wouldn't be able to pin point the exact reasoning for her actions. I simply don't know why she did what she did, just the cause. Also she was in her late 20s when she had me and certainly didn't have her youth stolen. I'd argue it doesn't matter how old someone is when this happens, the resentment of being abandoned or betrayed stings either way.
Yeah, I agree with you at the end of the day abortion is a deeply personal matter and decision, but the opportunity to have it done should be available imo. Would you rather your mother hadn't had you instead of having to deal with abuse and mental health but at least still be alive?
Edit: Mods if you see this could I please have a flair. Thanks!

Very different from all the other Ghanaian boys I've met.

I fully agree, reason I posted it was because some people literally need to hear it out of the horse's mouth to believe it's not just a thing bitter women come up with.
I wouldn't put it past men to use even such a message as a grift to get women, after all I don't really know who those two guys are and what their motivation is to make a video like that. But every now and then I just need the perpetrators admit it. And say it in their own words.
