One need only browse Live Action News to find many stories of heroic birth moms.<\/p>\n<p>Bencannen defaults to the\u00a0old standby of eliciting pity for the difficulties to be potentially faced by an adoptee (oblivious, apparently, that the outcome for a child obliterated by abortion is unequivocally worse). Some children, she notes, are placed with foster families. And living with a foster family can be worse, in her bizarre estimation, than not living at all. Unsurprisingly, she blames pro-life Americans for the imperfect nature of the system:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>If we continue to make abortions harder to obtain without funding social services for new parents, more children will inevitably wind up in these systems, which cannot provide the kind of services needed to either reunite them with their biological parents or find permanent homes for them.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The author&#8217;s disparagement of foster care omits important facts about groups\u00a0like the <a href=\"\/news\/wendys-chain-making-strides-to-help-foster-children-find-permanent-families\/\">Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption<\/a>, which\u00a0ensures that children and teens who are likely to age out of the system due to age, disability, or past experiences, find permanent families before adulthood. Bencannen\u00a0also fails to acknowledge\u00a0the foster families who adopt the children they fostered, like <a href=\"\/news\/couple-adopts-teen-who-could-have-aged-out-of-the-foster-system-without-a-family\/\">this couple<\/a> who adopted a teen foster daughter.<\/p>\n<p>Bencannen continues, &#8220;Anyone who believes that adoption or foster care is a natural solution to growing restrictions on reproductive rights is kidding themselves.&#8221; But\u00a0her solution is to\u00a0abort\u00a0the children who would be placed for adoption and thereby prevent an\u00a0overwhelmed foster system. Maintaining abortion as a fallback plan<a href=\"\/news\/nigerian-leaders-plan-abortions-for-boko-haram-victims-no-other-alternatives-discussed\/\">\u00a0only makes the jobs of disinterested parties easier<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The author takes issue with the fact that some mothers\u00a0she helped were unable to procure abortions because they waited too long to do so:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>However, most of the women who came to my adoption agency were too late for an abortion, didn\u2019t know where to get one, or didn\u2019t have the money to cover the cost. They just knew that they couldn\u2019t parent a child\u2014and, without the ability to access an abortion, adoption was their last resort.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.guttmacher.org\/statecenter\/spibs\/spib_OAL.pdf\">In most states<\/a>, a woman would have to wait <em>at least\u00a0<\/em>twenty weeks\u00a0to be &#8220;too late&#8221; in her pregnancy to obtain an abortion. This means that\u00a0likely half of her pregnancy went by without the mother undergoing an abortion. Is it possible that these women \u00a0actually postponed the procedure &#8220;too long&#8221; because they recognized that abortion was wrong for themselves and their children? Many birth moms\u00a0<a href=\"\/news\/the-gift-of-life-a-17-year-old-chooses-adoption-for-her-baby\/\">report<\/a> this pang of conscience regarding their pre-born children.<\/p>\n<p>Bencannen would like her readers to believe that adoption is only a crushing decision for women, and that the pro-life portrayal of adoption as a pro-woman choice is illusory. But <a href=\"\/news\/one-year-later-teen-birth-parents-who-chose-adoption\/\">from the mouths of birth mothers themselves<\/a>, it is a decision that &#8212; while truly difficult &#8212; leads to a good outcome for the mother, the child, and the adoptive family.
