He was pointing out the ludicrousness of your argument.I'm sorry, I forgot you could read their minds.
I DID NOT SAY ADOPTION WAS THE MAIN SOLUTION TO ABORTION, OKAY. It is ONE solution, and it is a SMALL one.Because you are speaking from ignorance.
You know nothing about the adoption business.
If you did, you would realize how ridiculous your argument is.
*sigh* the same could be said about you. What makes you think that they wouldn't want to die?I'm sorry, I forgot you could read their minds.
Because honestly, if you don't want to trust me, go look it up yourself. And I'm not trying to be rude by that.Nice try, but I flat out asked you for sources of your stats and got a big fat nothing.
Besides which, your strawman will not work.
LOL! You're asking for sources for people's information but providing none for your own. Get over yourself, child.Because honestly, if you don't want to trust me, go look it up yourself. And I'm not trying to be rude by that.
To all of you that want to argue that abortion is what's best for the CHILD, please go find me some statistics on how many women had their abortion because it was what was best for the CHILD. -_-
And killing them is???Again you show a fundamental lack of understanding the facts about the adoption business.
It is NOT a solution at all.
Not even close.
You are not listening.I DID NOT SAY ADOPTION WAS THE MAIN SOLUTION TO ABORTION, OKAY. It is ONE solution, and it is a SMALL one.
Why is it permissible to treat women as if they are incompetent to decide for themselves what to do in this matter?
I am not going to do your homework.Because honestly, if you don't want to trust me, go look it up yourself. And I'm not trying to be rude by that.
Again with the strawman.And killing them is???
Just like you when you claim the opposite.I'm sorry, I forgot you could read their minds.
And there are thousands upon thousands of more children. You can't seriously think that there are foster parents for every child that needs adopting, and furthermore, even if you did, you DO realize that a fosterparent is completely different from an adoptive parent, right? One keeps you forever, the other keeps you until they can't bother with you anymore and ship you off to another foster home, where your new foster parents there couldn't give a **** about you either.
Is most cases, darling, when you're a foster child, you're a paycheck and nothing more. Now THAT is definitely the life I'd want a child to live. Knowing that their mother gave them up, and no one loves them, no one really wants them, and then finally, they'll just get lost in the system. That SURE IS a great life you've got going for all these children you're trying to save, Leah.
What makes you think so?People go to China, India, etc. to adopt kids, because there are not that many in the US...
Not all of them. I knew a 17 year old mother of three who was still a ward of the state because her mother had been found unfit and she was never adopted. I also knew a mother whose children were removed from her, who saw it as an oppurtunity to move to Hawaii. My anecdotes are as valid as yours.My M.I.L. keeps foster kids, lots of them. She was one herself, that is why she does it. (there is not much money in it actually). The kids in foster care are not up for adoption. Their parents still want them, the parents are just in messy situations, in jail, or etc. etc... waiting until they can get back on their feet and get their kids back etc. Of the 50+ kids she had, only 2, a brother and a sister, were adopted - they were adopted very quickly.
No, they go because it's trendy.People go to China, India, etc. to adopt kids, because there are not that many in the US...
You are not listening.
Adoption is not a solution.
Actually, it's because they feel sorry for the kids that have to grow up in an incredibly overpopulated country. Also to save them from the fate that many children in India go through: being sold in the sex trade.People go to China, India, etc. to adopt kids, because there are not that many in the US...
Just FYI.
You're assuming that everyone shares the same view on when during the pregnancy the fetus is considered "life"Why is adoption not a solution? Instead of sucking their brains out at 20 weeks, why don't they just let them deliver them whole instead? See if they can live?
Let me ask you a question. when med advances to the point that they don't need a womb anymore - someone does not want their body used for another life - fine, it's not a matter of "woman's right to her body" anymore - does she still have the right to kill her child after they can survive without her?
I guess some people respect life, and others don't.

If the parents fight. If they win. If they don't, the kids are up for adoption. EDIT: Again, I have to wonder if you read your own sources.Foster care - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Foster care is just a short term alternative while on the way to determining one of the three permanent plans for the child. According to Dorsey et al.. [1], the three permanent plans are:“Reunification with the biological parent,
conversion of the foster home to a legally-permanent guardianship or adoption, or
placement of the child into another legally permanent family” (p. 1404).
foster kids are not up for adoption - it is a short term thing while the parents fight the state to try and get them back.
I would say it might have to do with the mentality of the way people think about women since the dawn of Man. Man know it all women don't and we have to decide for them..... Yeah I know it's not right.
