and there are parents. I thought I have seen the worst of child abuse cases in the form of neglect or violence but this … is appalling.
Why give birth to a child if you are not prepared to give him or her the best you can? And what if your “best” is hardly acceptable?
Would the child have been more “fortunate” if she was aborted from the beginning? Would this make a classic case for a pro choice argument?
The many grey shades in life. They sadden me.
“Why give birth to a child if you are not prepared to give him or her the best you can?”
Because some not very smart governments make abortions or birth control illegal or inaccessible in their countries? Just a guess. There’s a reason for the pro-choice movement.
Alexis: Hey, welcome here.
This happened in the US of A so it isn’t illegal, like in some countries, esp where the Roman Catholic Church has a stronghold over the government.
And sadly, yes, I thought abortion would have been a kinder option for the poor girl, after reading about all that she went through. As a mum, my heart really hurts.
Sigh…and there are so many people out there who are willing to be responsible parents but just couldn’t conceive. =(
fitti: *hugs*
