Actually, I want every child to be cared for and raised by parents who want him or her. Abortion makes this more likely by preventing unwanted kids.

Ted, Again, I ask you......forget your POV for a moment.......why would you want a child to go to parents who do not want him/her? After all, its the child that will suffer not the parents or you. Actually, I want every child to be cared for and raised by parents who want him or her. George Will apparently agrees, too, which is why he cited the waiting list of parents who would adopt Down Syndrome kids. But as a society, I think we should encourage the mentality that every child is a life worth raising, even those that were unplanned or have birth defects. I still remember the woman who aborted her baby because, among other things, she would be forced to shop at Costco. That's just wrong. Ten, you are evading the question again. In reality, there are parents who just don't care. It was just reported in the local papers that the mother of three allowed her children to starve to death. Why? She needed the food money for her drugs. There are some people who should not be parents because they are not good people. There are other people who don't want to be parents and should not be parents. And there are parents who can not afford the money and patience required of a child who is developmentally challenged. I agree with you its not a good thing but its the reality. People who do not want to be parents or are incapable of being parents should not be forced to be them. And that's because the children pay the price........no one else. So again I ask......why would you want children to go to parents who do not want them? Are you really that cruel? ted
