She was a single girl, and the guy had taken off like a scared little punk. She stuck it out, and the baby is 7 years old now. Little girl. Cutest thing in the world. She met a nice guy, and they are a happy family now. I was ready though to raise that child before I saw it snuffed out before she had a chance.
Yup, according to what I've read, almost none of the reasons commonly given - rape, incest - are reasons for abortions. The main reasons are that they simply don't want the kid. One site indicates that 93% are done just because the parents don't want the kid.

According to this site http://www.abortionfacts.com/online_...em_both_29.asp incest accounts for 1% of abortions. It also states that there is a "total of 170 to 340 assault rape pregnancies a year in the entire United States." So all these millions of abortions are happening because of incest and rape?
