SLPx, I can agree with you that if the fetus has a fatal condition that abortion should be an option. After reading your post though are you implying that the familys should not have an option but to abort if the fetus has a fatal condition? When you said many of those who get abortions where for financial or psychological reasons really doesnt make sense to me. Maybe you can educate me on that. Are you saying that a financial reason would be not being able to support the new child? Explain the psychological reasons to please.

Well I can see where there are a lot of kids still waiting to get adopted, but they are older children and not new born babies. So your comment on waiting for the pro-lifers to adopt a child is not accurate. I personally know a family who had to wait for 8 years to adopt a child, because they were unable to have there own child. Now the situation with kids that are older to be adopted is a different topic all together. On the psychological factors, when you say they are not even able to get there hw done, so since they got pregnant its not really there fault, if you are trying to say this I can agree because young kids just arent educated enough. I just think that letting them have an abortion is just giving them a get out of jail free card. Im just wondering how many cases there are of young kids who have an abortion and then get pregnant again. Im sure you have experience and can educate me on that.

I was talking about how if whoever it is doesnt get an abortion there are people waiting to adopt the new born baby. Yes it is sad but a lot of people dont want to adopt older children but thats not the topic, I am saying people do want to adopt new born babies. When you keep saying people only want white babies what about the people who are of a different race and want to adopt a child. I hope you dont think that only white people adopt kids. The family I knew wasnt that specific of a child they wanted, they just wanted a child and it took 8 years. They have money and a good home to live in and it still took that long, and they are a white couple and they adopted a child that wasnt. I know several familys who have done the same thing. A couple people from my church have adopted from other countrys as well. If you would like to talk about children from the ages of say 7-16 not getting adopted we can but this is about the stop of abortion that will bring new familys a new born baby because they can not have there own.

There are several reasons why there are older children up for adoption. My friend I grew up with was adopted because both of his parents were killed in a car accident and he had no other family members to live with. You keep giving the arguement about people who want specific requirements in the baby to adopt it. Do you have any experience with a couple that has done this or did you just hear a story? Im not denying that it happens but you are talking like everyone does this. I have told you a couple of storys about how people I have known has done the opposite and still had to wait. You also keep using the arguement that forcing them to care for an infant would be wrong. Let me just say if they are ok with having an abortion I am sure they would be ok to give it up for adoption. Thats just what I think, so I am not saying they should have to raise the child, give it up for adoption so another family who cant have children have a chance for a family.

Do you have some information to let me see the overwhelming majority of people who want to adopt children are white?
