The problem is, those who wish to abolish legal abortions would also like to restrict women's access to contraceptives as well. It is not about defending life, it about controlling women.

You go girl. I completely agree.

My husband was born in a Catholic home for unwed mothers (after his mother was raped by her sister's husband). At her father's insistence, the child was not given up for adoption. Thankfully that place was closed long ago, but has a large internet presence because, while in the care of that institution the women were pressured into giving their children up. The babies were then sold to the adoptive parents for the benefit of the church. Currently there is a network dedicated to reuniting these women with there long-lost off spring. Every "orphanage" that I have ever heard of (whether run by the church or the state) has a dark side to it.

@MyTVC15 Exactly my point.

@KKGator a point that should be made. Since my original post to you I jumped back down the rabbit hole of reading about the place I mentioned. I was wrong about one statement I made, the place did not close, but it has involved into a type of homeless shelter for unwed/poor pregnant women and mothers and their children. Something I found tonight is a report done on the matter by Dan Rather. The place where my husband was born (St. Mary's in Dorchester, MA) is talked about here [danratherjournalist.org]

@MyTVC15 Those types of places are everywhere, all over the world.
They must all be exposed and shut down.
