A 15yo should have given the baby up for adoption. That would have been the RIGHT thing to do.

in the 70’s, 50% of illegitimate babies were put up for adoption. Adopted children do much better in life than even children born to two parent homes.

Now less than 1% of illegitimate children are put up for adoption.

I don't know how old she is. I just threw out the possibility that she is underage, and therefore undeserving of the rage this thread opened with. For all I know she is 32. But I doubt it.

Conservatives often get accused of not having a heart. But here is a private center where people are actually trying to save the life of a child and help the moms -- as if there have NEVER been single moms in the history of the world -- and we have a screed about taxes at the top of the thread.

I agree; the entire Great-Society-easy-sex-and-welfare mentality has put this country in the toilet, and we have LBJ to thank, among many other Democrats. But the original post screaming about a single mother who at least made an effort? Not a solution.
