adoption is not always as wonderful a process as it seems. yes, your brother was very lucky. but there are thousands (and more) of children who may not be adopted. you've got to think logistically. there are not enough enough homes for all of these children. there are approximately 2 million abortions in the US each year.. and those are only legal abortions. the fact of the matter is, probably more than half of those children who could have been put up for adoption wouldn't have been able to be adopted for a long amount of time, if it happened at all. is it really worth it to bring a child into this world who may not ever be able to experience love? believe me, i love children and i love babies. and i'm by no means pro-abortion, and neither is anyone else. but i am pro-choice simply for one reason.. if abortion is made illegal, there will still be probably around a million abortions performed in a year, and those will be illegally and probably unsafely done. do you know what a hanger can do when it is inserted into a womens vagina? it either kills the baby or severely deforms it. and if you don't think there's a million women in the world who would go to such drastic measures as the hanger, or pushing themselves down the stairs.. then you are wrong. for all of the people who are pro-life, there is one option for you -- don't have an abortion. it is not anyones right to decide what another woman can or cannot do according to their own morals. if you don't like abortions, don't have one.. but the option should be safely available to anyone who feels that they need the option. and by the way, my sister was in a foster home for two years with about 10 other kids who had all been there for numerous years. your brother was very lucky, but the fact of the matter is, most children are not.

trust me...i understand your reasoning...but the fact of the matter is...i think there are better options. i do think it should be illegalized...but with that...instead of simply illegalizing abortion and leaving everything else as is...i think the funding that would have been used for those purposes should be used to fund for better lifestyles for those kids who are in foster homes and finding them real homes and also more funding for crisis centers and such.
