Yep, and it’s “safe and legal and rare,” though it seems that we need government to make it more common because 3500 murdered infants PER DAY just isn’t rare enough.
What a wonderful story. Your son looks very happy!
There’s also nothing empowering about a woman having sex with a man she doesn’t know or trust.
Wow, if one was to read Ann Coulter’s latest book they would see much the same thing printed on those pages. Single mothers cause much of the problems in this country by the simple fact there is no nuclear family to support her and the children. Hence, more abortions, more child murder after they are born(both are murder, I just wanted to differentiate between the two)by single moms wanting to be with a new boyfriend or to go out partying or children beaten to death by the new boyfriend(with mom’s help), more crime committed by the children after(IF)they grow up.
Those aren’t the only 2 options, tho. Adoption is one.
There is no catch 22, there is one simple solution, you don't the children to begin with unless you know you are going to have a partner(or at least strongly suspect such)who will stay with you and help raise them. This means, in simple English, that if you aren't married, don't have children, period. Read Ann Coulter's new book it explains many things and shows the statistics to back them up.
Interesting. I’ve never been in a position to talk to a woman who was considering an abortion, so I have no personal experience here. I have talked to women who have had abortions, but the conversations were brief.
I was talking about those who are already pregnant, in the context of encouraging them not to have an abortion. When working with pregnant women, who are contemplating abortion, it is rarely effective to tell them they should not have gotten pregnant to begin with.
wagglebee, thanks for allowing me to ask! Next week I hope to be to the point of collecting the data.
I disagree with this whole thing and it’s rationalizations. The top reason for abortion is submission to a moral depravity that results in a callous disregard for life.
Adoption is clearly the very best solution to this problem. I always encourage women to go the adoption route.
Strangely enough, the men who do not want the child and encourage the abortions, are usually against adoption. Many will refuse to consent to the adoption or even worse they sometimes threaten to seek sole custody of the child. This is terrifying to a woman who lacks the money for legal assistance, and she will almost always do what he wants.
I don’t understand it, probably because it doesn’t make sense, but these situations never have a good outcome.
Women having sex with and getting pregnant by men who are bad choices for fathers do generally have a bad outcome. It seems to be a big secret, tho.
I do agree with that. Once they are pregnant you have to deal with that. However, we need to do far more as a society in encouraging women to NOT have sex with men who they would not want to be married to and have children with. And we need to stop this nonsense that sex and marriage and children are not connected.
“I disagree with this whole thing and its rationalizations. The top reason for abortion is submission to a moral depravity that results in a callous disregard for life.”
That is fine if your purpose is to sit back and judge the actions of others. Some of us are actively trying to prevent the abortion of children by working with women who are considering it. Every time a woman chooses life over abortion, a murder is prevented.
It may not solve the problem of moral depravity, but I would argue that it produces better results than judging women who are already in a bad situation.
1) Men made all the laws.
2) Men impregnate the women.
3. It takes 2 to tango.
Yep, men made the laws, and made them so that they didn’t have any responsibility for getting free sex.
Like being duped?
Oh, and as for “men impregnate women” - that sounds... well, rather radical lesbian of you...
It takes two to tango, and if the woman says no, sex doesn’t happen, unless a crime is then committed.
