Jim Harbaugh Says He Would Adopt Unwanted Babies In ESPN Interview

>> more pro lifers need to do that. Adopt those babies. <<

A lot of pro-abortion propagandists point to the existence of foster children. But the states actually mandate that children who would be adopted first go through the foster-child program. The average foster child spends nearly a year and a half in foster care, which isn’t so much when you consider the adoption process (during which the child is technically in foster care) takes over a year.

217,000 children (out of 60 million nationally) are in foster care... including those in the process of adoption. (My math says that must leaves less that 80,000 NOT in the process of adoption, including those who ARE in the process of adoption but whose adoption won’t work out for some reason... but I’m deriving this from comparing the average time to adoption, 1 year, to the average time in the foster progran, 1 1/2 years.) Five percent in foster care will be in foster care for five or more years, mostly children whose criminal or health issues prevent them from being placed in more permanent homes.

In 2010, my brother in law was actively being recruited to both the Oregon amd Stanford football programs. Harbaugh coming all the way to Denver to have dinner at his parent’s house made all the difference to his decision. Great guy! They went on to 3 bowls after that, 2 with Coach Shaw.

Harbaugh stepping up. Where are he others? I’m talking an electronic rolodex with a million families willing to take in one or 2.. I once traveled through French Polynesia-the Marqueses. A happy group of people who intermarry. Lots of palsey victims. Raise them there. The Catholic Church has a big influence. They’d be happy.
