I think every baby is a gift from God
I just wish everyone did. If I had one wish, I would wish that every child conceived would be wanted and loved and cared for by both parents.
I just believe that some people shouldn't have kids and I would rather a mother abort a baby than beat it to death at 2 or totally ignore it so he or she goes out to gangs to find a family.
I know that you say that there are a lot of people that want to adopt (although a lot of those that oppose abortion don't seem to be interested in the kid after it's born) but they want babies or those poor orphans overseas. There are so many kids in foster care that would love to have a family but never will. They are thrown out at 18 with very few skills and no backup.
I remember, pre-abortion, an 18-month old baby boy. He was a blond-haired, blue-eyed beautiful toddler that was considered vertually unadoptable because he was too old. I often wondered how he faired. I was in high-school at the time.
My husband and I were on the adoption list in Tulsa and we said we would take older children and even siblings but we were interviewed and passed but never were talked to about children to adopt for over a year and I became pregnant and they dropped us. I wonder how many had our experience. We moved not to long after my oldest was born.
Now you have my philosophy.
