In Ken Sims' recent letter to the editor , his sole focus is on the fetus and the woman is a non-entity.
Does your stance on abortion absolve you of all responsibility after the baby is born? Do you turn a blind eye, wash your hands, walk away and all is right with the world for you?
Those women who are forced to give birth should receive free day care. Check out those prices, Ken, if you can find an opening, free medical care, and free diapers, formula, and baby food. Every pro-life and anti-abortion activist should be fully financially responsible for the fetuses they are so concerned about after birth for it to have a quality of life. After all, you are the ones who wanted the baby.
Where will those people be when the mother has sleepless nights and has to get up to go to work, home sleeping?
Look at the small country of Ireland and what happened there. What makes you think things would be different in a larger country like the United States?
