I know many such stories from back in the day, back in my hometown Catholic nieghborhood. I have no idea how anyone can HATE a baby, even though I was a hated baby. A degree of selfishness must exist that I do not possess. I brought all of my own children into the world gladly, with love. If nothing else my experience proves that just because we are abused does not mean we have to be abusive. The cycle of negativity has to be stopped.
