Every Child A Wanted Child\u2026.Better Aborted Than Abused\u2026 Why Have Them If You Can\u2019t Care For Them?\u2026.Better Off If They\u2019d Never Been Born<\/p>\n
Have you heard these excuses for the infanticide that is abortion? Compassionate people look at news reports of abused children, hurt and broken at the hands of those who were supposed to love and protect them, and conclude that abortion would have been a kinder fate.<\/p>\n
Why does no one ever ask these children? Where are the news people and why are they not talking to adult survivors of child abuse? Would these people who have run the gauntlet in their early lives say that they would prefer to have been simply discarded before birth than to have lived the horror of their childhoods?<\/p>\n
I suspect not. This is the unseen truth of most child abuse. It is horrible and terrible and should never happen, and the adults that these children become\u2026they adjust. Many if not most become productive members of society, loving parents, devoted spouses. They look at the example of their own parents and vow to never<\/span> parent that way themselves. For the most part they are successful.<\/p>\n So whom does the abortion spare? Does it spare the children from pain and fear, sorrow and heartbreak? Or does it spare the news reading, news watching adult from feeling helplessness and guilt at having done nothing to prevent the pain and fear and sorrow and heartbreak? I suspect it is the latter. Human beings do not like guilt. It makes us uncomfortable and angry and sad. We would do just about anything to prevent feeling guilty. An \u201cinvisible\u201d unborn child in a trash can is easier to deal with than a battered cherubic face on the news. But would that child agree?<\/p>\n Perhaps those now grown-up abused children of this world need to come out of the shadows and speak up for the tiniest among us. Tell the world that child abuse should be stopped, but not by killing its victims. We need to stand up and declare that a horrible childhood doesn\u2019t necessarily lead to a horrible adulthood. Because where would the world be without us? How much emptier would our spouses\u2019 lives be without us and our children? How bored would our readers be without the blogs like this one?<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Every Child A Wanted Child\u2026.Better Aborted Than Abused\u2026 Why Have Them If You Can\u2019t Care For Them?\u2026.Better Off If They\u2019d Never Been Born Have you heard these excuses for the infanticide that is abortion?
