I totaly get why you are so angry with your mom. I think it would help if you will imagine yourself in her place and see how she might have felt about you having an abortion.

It seems to me that she was worried about your safety for one thing when she got all upset about your going to do this without your parents being involved. If you live at home it seems she should have been the one to take you. Also, she may have had much more intense feelings about this situation than she expected and found it much harder to BE supportive. She also may have mixed feelings and regrets because this child would have been her grandchild.

I'm not trying to excuse your mom, I'm just old enough to know that people are more complicated than we wish and they sometimes are very conflicted over situations. I do know that she loves you and wants what's best for your life.

I hope you can get to a point of forgiveness with your mom. My mom is dead and I wish many times that I still had a mom.
