I noticed that in Beloved Sethe killed her daughter and thought that the ghost was her so thats why she didn't want it to leave her. She was very hurt when Paul D ran the ghost out the house. She felt like she got a second chance when Beloved came because she was just like her daughter. This shows me how hurt and sad that Sethe was about killing her daughter and if she could she would take it back, but i notice now in time most girls kill their children during abortions all the time . Especially black girls. Why is this? why aren't they hurt and sad that they killed their child like Sethe?

I like your aspect of this connotation of the story and find that abortions are relevant to killing your child, but perhaps it is the way that it is done or the situation someone may be in. For example, people have abortions because they are unable to financially take care of the child and it may not be taken as hands on like actually killing a kid. Although, they were both aware of their children be killed in some sort of fashion. This is a good way to go about that particular instance.
