You can thank abortion for all of this. Babies left in dumpsters, on streets, child porn, partial-birth abortion, sex offenders....all of this comes from that stupid Roe vs Wade ruling. Roe vs Wade is the broken-window effect of abortion. Once feminists argued that fetuses are nothing more than blobs of tissue, all life has become devalued and cheapened. None of these things existed until the Supremes used their magical powers to discover a right to privacy.
I agree with you. We have devalued life and parenthood. The article calls her a teenager. She was 19. She's young, but she's not some little kid who had a baby. Young women become pregnant and they are given free pre-natal care and welfare after the babies are born. They have no responsibility for themselves, so why should they feel they should be responsible for the child after it's born?
