I desperately wanted identical twins when I was pregnant. I can't imagine having them and getting rid of them like that. Was her Manhattan apartment really so much more important than her children? I worry about the one remaining that was born. How will she treat him if he becomes inconvenient? How will she explain what she did to his siblings?
He'll always know that if he were inconvenient, she would have killed him too.
I wanted twins every time I had a baby, we have three kids in their 20s now. I always wanted twins.
More than many, but less than most NYC women are imply hideous. That's one (of many) reasons I left NYC and don't regret it.
I agree with you. To be blessed with 3 at once? And then eliminate 2 of them? It took me 3 long hard pregnancies with progressively worsening health after to get my 3 beautiful children. I can not imagine being blessed that many times in one sitting and rejected such a blessing.
"Was her Manhattan apartment really so much more important than her children?"
Was her apartment worth her immortal soul? God calls sodomy an abomination. This is far worse than that. Not from rape. Not from incest. Not to save the life of the mother. Just to save an apartment and avoid buying large jars of mayonaise.
[I was reviewing a Rush tape and thought I'd look this up on the web. He was also sickened by this. It was something to hear. So I checked out Google and get pinged back to the FR. Lots of people talked about this on the web, but the FR's link was at the top.]
God bless you and everyone here for caring!
