Annotation:

In this video, there are two sides discussing whether students in university should take abortion or give birth when they are pregnant.

Below are the two main points that why some people do not want to give birth.

1. Rather take abortion cruelly, than consider it reluctantly.

2. How can children support children? A mistake will be a permanent regret

Summary and analysis:

In this video we can notice that for most of students, the reason why they rather take abortion than give birth is money the most. “College students do not really have enough financial capacity. Some of them probably still have to ask money from family. If give a birth, then will you use the money that parents give to support your child or just ask family to take care of it?” said a male student. They think in finance, some of students still have to depend on family, how could they have enough money to support a child? Most of students have no stable job, and do not have time to earn much money. They think it is even hard to support themselves.

Then the second part is marriage. They think it is necessary that the child needs parents, and it means they have to get married. However, the baby is unexpected, they haven’t consider whether the lover is their spouse. They are afraid of regretting to get married.

I think those who rather take abortion is not mature. They think how children can support children, but this thought also reveals that they think they are still childish. For them, they are afraid of taking the responsibility, they even cannot take care of themselves, so that they do not want to have more troubles. Furthermore, they do not really think it is a baby, most of them treat it as a trouble. Because being pregnant is unexpected, especially under no marriage, they think it is fault. In the video, the host asks a question: “Who will you tell you are pregnant first?,” and no one wants to tell their parents first, because they do not want to disturb parents. Although they think they are able to deal with the situation, they are subconscious to treat it as a mistake.

    And marriage problem also brings some thoughts. They do not want the child becomes the reason for them to get married or the trouble when they decide to get divorced. This is also caused by immature. “The most important is, I think the relationship between students is still not that mature, you have to consider whether the person is the one you will live with forever, so will you marry him/ her?” said a male student. They are mature in physical, so they have sex, but the truth is that in both of mental and their relationship, they cannot be responsible to the possible result that having sex would bring.

    To sum up, the side that supports taking abortion tends to consider real life problems and about their future. They all admit that they don’t have enough money and are not mature to have a baby, so taking abortion becomes a way for them to escape these troublesome problems. 

Keywords:

Reluctantly: They know how hard to support a child, especially the child is unexpected, they have difficulty to take care of child. If one of them does not want the child, or they don’t have same conclusion, then there will be a person is reluctant.

Regret: They worried that the child cannot grow up happily and that how to face making up a family. They think just because of the child then get married, they probably will regret.

Financial capacity: For most of college students, they even need money from family, how to earn much money to support a child? And they still have to go to school, that means they do not have much time to work.

Mature: Some students do not have the responsibility to face pregnancy. Some of them probably want to have fun with friends and go to night clubs, they do not take child seriously, while the others think it is girl that gets pregnant, they do not have to face it anyway. Some students think their relationship is still not mature enough, it will be a problem if they decide to make up a family.

Rather take abortion cruelly, than consider it reluctantly

How can children support children? A mistake will be a permanent regret

告訴男朋友是一件很困難的事，第二個是還要聽他的反應，如果他今天跟我說你不要生下來，你就會想說他一定是不會愛我，如果它叫我生下來，你又會開始想說那有經濟能力嗎？如果生下來會娶我嗎？如果要思考這麼多很難過，那就直接拿掉就好。我覺得大學生真的沒有能力，小孩生出來會很可憐 也會麻煩到父母，因為你絕對沒有辦法自己照顧他。

At first, it is difficult to tell boyfriend that I am pregnant. Second is to listen to his recreation. If today he says not to give a birth, you will think he doesn’t love certainly. If he asks me to give a birth, you will starts to think do we have the financial capacity? Will he marry me after I give a birth? If I have to consider many aspects in despair, I think it will be better to take abortion straightly.

I think college students really have no capacity, the child will be poor, and you have to ask parents for help, because you can’t take care of child by yourself.

大學生的經濟能力實在是沒那麼強，有些人可能一個月還是跟家裡拿錢，生下來後，是要拿家裡的人給你的錢去養他？還是就要丟給家裡養？就變一個大問題，而且生下來你沒辦法給他一個完好的生活，連奶粉錢可能都是問題的時候，生下來要幹嘛？重點我覺得大學生彼此之間的感情都還不是那麼成熟，可能這個人是不是你一輩子要走下去的人，你這時候要不要跟它結婚？

College students do not really have enough financial capacity. Some of them probably still have to ask money from family. If give a birth, then will you use the money that parents give to support your child or just ask family to take care of it? It is big problem, and you cannot give child a good life, even milk powder becomes a problem, why give a birth? The most important is, I think the relationship between students is still not that mature, you have to consider whether the person is the one you will live with forever, so will you marry him/ her?
