I think you should strongly seek the advice of professionals who can help you in this regard. A quick google found an organisation based in brisbane which could probably either give you some advice or put you in touch with a similar organisation in sydney. Call up 1800 177 725 9am - 5pm monday to friday.

cos it is like killing potential human being
It isn't a human being yet so what is getting killed? There is no killing, to kill something it has to be alive first.

it is medically proven.

and i said, i agree that abortion seems to be the best option for her..,
No, it's not. First trimester abortion is safer than pregnancy.

If you have facts proving any of your claims that are from proper doctors/researchers rather than crazy pro-lifers I'll concede the point.

well, it is considered as a cell in her body, but as it is embryo, a potential human being, i think abortion is equivalent to killing.
lol!

well it's alive
so it's equivalent to killing in the sense that stepping on an ant or using antibacterial mouthwash is killing something

but it's not equivalent to murder, i.e. killing another person

A POTENTIAL human being, it is NOT a human being yet, therefore NOTHING is getting killed, it is NOT ALIVE JUST A BUNCH OF SQUISHY STUFF.

none of this is based on any fact whatsoever.

If you conscience has trouble with abortion it should have more trouble with having a baby that you don't want, and that will ruin your life.
not to mention premarital sex.

potential human being can't be considered as 'nothing'.
I agree but I suppose I'd just say that it's yet to have even experienced a conscious identity .

you can not let religious beliefs drive the most important decisions like these in your life. you are looking at two roads that lead to two COMPLETELY different places.

umm.. do you even understand the responsibilities that come with being a mother? how can she study for education/work for financial support/take care of baby/take care of herself/not manage to kill herself all at the same time? hells no.
