If you would have bothered to read all my posts yes healthy white newborns are desirable. Unfortunately many people try to raise the baby themselves for 2-5 years and then give it up. NO one wants a very damaged toddler I can tell you from personal experience. Ever meet a 5 year old that you would be afraid of falling asleep in the same house? I have!

People getting abortions are not planning to raise them for many years.


Killing the baby is not the answer.

I am sure you also have wonderful stories that you are not telling. My daughter who works with special needs, has worked with wonderful children and their famlies. She has worked with kids that can not walk, and they only talk through a computer.....they bring so much joy to their parents.

What do they think should happen with these homeless women with their hungry children. I hope you pro abortion people are happy that their will be 80% more starving abused poor or homeless kids all because you all really can't mind your own business. Can't just say don't have sex. That won't happen.
They didn't ban abortion, despite what CNN told you. They kicked it back to the states.

It is GREATLY disturbing that Black women have a four times higher abortion rate than white women. How is that not race-based genocide?

I have no wonderful stories from when I was a social worker. The work was heartbreaking and why I changed careers. A male social worker working with abused children and their families hung himself one day. I went back to college for a new career.

It opposes nature by distorting the purpose of sex. The proper way to avoid unwanted pregnancies is to refrain from the activity that causes pregnancy.

They probably use the natural family planning method which is really effective if used correctly and consistently.
