7 Celebrities Whose Parents Considered Aborting Them

Jessica Wilson

Being a parent is a heavy responsibility, but it’s a far greater blessing than a burden. For parents, the discovery, the lessons, and the triumphs that their children have experienced are more precious than any victory they could achieve for themselves. However, some refuse to become a mom or a dad these days, they choose abortions for many different reasons. Some stop childbearing for their financial problems while some are too young to become a parent. No matter what the reason is, the children are not almost born.
Believe it or not, many celebrities weren't almost born. Luckily, their parents skipped abortions and gave birth to them. For example, many people encouraged Justin Bieber’s mother to abort her baby. Before her pregnancy, she had suffered sexual abuse. Fortunately, she didn’t follow through with it. Justin’s mom has opened up her story in hopes that she can inspire people who are in similar situations.
