my friend is not saved and she is pregnant

Her mother is a Christian as well as the father 

The daughter has decided not to have the baby and is going to planned parenting to take the pill

The daughter wants the mother to give her a ride but the father says no

The mother knows that abortion is murder

She is not judging her daughter

Both parents have told her truth

What should the mother do ?

Give her another option by offering to mother the child after birth.

The mother should not participate in the abortion at all. There are groups to reach out to, adoption, maybe her parents can help or just take custody of the baby. There's no easy answer, but there is a right one; abortion is murder. You wouldn't help your child stab someone to death just because they're your child, so you can't give them a ride knowing that, etc.

This is a sad story, the mother should talk to the daughter and first of all, tell her that it's murder to go for abortion, she should tell her daughter that God created this little baby and that it's His. The daughter might be young but in time she will be sorry for her decision and it will have many consequences also for her mental health, can she go with her daughter to a pastor who can talk to her? The daughter will not happy if she 's getting an abortion this  can and will haunt her for the rest of her life. If the mother is a Christian she would want to go on her knees and ask God to please convince her daughter of carrying the baby full-term .

It's good that the mother is not judging her daughter,she should be on your friend's side and help her with all her might in Jesus strength and pray-pray-pray with her daughter..

Maybe she could talk about adoption? I'm sure that there are lots of people who would love to take care of this little baby..

But also, just speak to her from the heart... and take her for an ultrasound.  When my daughter saw her baby moving and kicking, that this was a precious tiny human being inside her, her heart changed immediately:emot-heartbeat:.... above all else, PRAY!                            Abby_Joy

Wow Sis.....excellent suggestion,Praise Jesus!:emot-heartbeat:

I thank everyone for their replies

The mother has spoken with the daughter the truth and in love

The daughter is not saved and has not changed her mind

Time is short

We are ALL praying for the Holy Spirit to soften the girl's hardened heart.  I agree that Mom and Dad should not participate in any way and offer as many other options as possible. If the girl wants to make this particular "adult" decision, then she must be prepared for ALL of the consequences, including those to her health (both physical and emotional). If she decides to go through with the abortion, we will all grieve, especially Mom and Dad. However, after the example of Paul in I and II Corinthians, first disfellowshiping a sinner, then bringing him back in, once the deed is done, Mom and Dad need to extend forgiveness and provide the support the daughter needs without making her feel judgment. This is going to be tough for all because, over time, God is going to convict the daughter and it may not be up to Mom and Dad to participate in any way but being loving, compassionate examples of forgiveness.

I believe that if we all agree in prayer, God will intervene and save the child.  Please keep us informed, so we can pray informed.
