The prolifers did a quick fundraiser and got her mortgage out of arrears and befriended her so she's not facing her next challenge alone. Should we just have abandoned her to Epoc?"<br /><br />"Family Planning Associates offered to take her money and kill her baby. The prolifers found so many eager adoptive homes for her disabled child that she decided to investigate her options further. She realized that she could parent after all, and is now the proud mother of a new baby whose issues are not nearly as severe as she'd been told they'd be. Should we have just abandoned her to Family Planning Associates?"<br /><br />I'm thinking that we need to refer to women who resort to abortion as having been "abandoned to abortion." Or maybe "abandoned to Big Abortion."

It will not only give those considering abortion hope, it will give us hope and encouragement as well. Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16845855084397350285noreply@blogger.com
