I DID NOT SAY ADOPTION WAS THE MAIN SOLUTION TO ABORTION, OKAY. It is ONE solution, and it is a SMALL one.

*sigh* the same could be said about you. What makes you think that they wouldn't want to die?

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.

LOL! You're asking for sources for people's information but providing none for your own. Get over yourself, child.

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.

I am not going to do your homework.
You presented the stats, you tell where you got the stats.
Thus far, I believe you pulled the numbers out of your arse.
Prove me wrong.
Again with the strawman.

Just like you when you claim the opposite.
Thus the reason I used the sarcasm and state:
see, two can play that game.

Question Everything
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.
People go to China, India, etc. to adopt kids, because there are not that many in the US...
Just FYI.

What makes you think so?
Can you site a source?

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.
No, they go because it's trendy.

Question Everything
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.

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.
India's sex trade exposed - The Sex Industry, Love & Sex - The Independent
EDIT: And that's just from Google-ing "India children sex trade". If I can find my notes from my Sociology class, I'd post them. I don't feel like flipping through the book

You're assuming that everyone shares the same view on when during the pregnancy the fetus is considered "life"

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.
conversion of the foster home to a legally-permanent guardianship or adoption, or
placement of the child into another legally permanent family” (p. 1404).

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.

Depends Upon My Mood..
Women are competent in this matter..and to be quite frank men are too.(men have something to do with it).
It is some men and some women that think that they can tell other men and women that "they would never do that" therefore its wrong.
If I concieve tonight..its NONE of anyone elses business but MINE and my HUSBANDS.NONE!
The only time its your business is if we HAVE a child out of that pregnancy and abuse or mistreat that child.Then for the childs sake I welcome your intervention.
Love
