Dave Wasserman: “I’ve seen enough: in a huge victory for the pro-choice side, the Kansas constitutional amendment to remove protections of abortion rights fails.”
Time and time, over and over, Republicans will believe less and less in reality in order to protect the egos of their grossly corrupt strong men.
Pro Lifer: Well the mother should just give the baby up for adoption if she doesn’t want the baby
Me: So who will adopt the baby?
PL: I don’t know there’s lots of couples who want to adopt
Me: Do you know any couple who is waiting to adopt?
PL: Um well not personally but like I know there’s lots of people waiting to adopt.
Me: Do you know what a domestic adoption costs?
PL: I don’t know. $15,000 maybe?
Me: The average cost of domestic adoption in the United States is $70,000 if you go through a private agency.
PL: Oh I didn’t realize it was that much
Me: Yep it’s really expensive. It can be more if you want a newborn straight from the hospital. Up to $120,000.
PL: Well all life is precious.
Me: it really is. I’ve adopted through foster care and am currently a licensed foster parent. Would you be interested in becoming a foster parent yourself?
PL: Oh no I couldn’t do it.
Me: Why not?
PL: It would just be too much for me right now.
Me: Why is that?
PL: It would be too hard to handle all the issues that came with it. I’ve heard horror stories.
Me: Yep it can be extremely difficult. But what if I told you that you were required by law to become a foster parent?
PL: what?
Me: what if you had to become a foster parent by law?
PL: they would never do that. That would never happen.
Me: Well, if a woman is forced to bear a child she doesn’t want, and she goes ahead and has that child, someone has to care for the child either through adoption or foster care. You have to do one of those two things.
PL: But I don’t want any more kids.
Me: So you don’t want someone forcing you to have a child in your home that you don’t want or aren’t able to care for?
PL: no, that’s not my job to raise someone else’s child.
There it is, folks. Have the baby, but we don’t want anything to do with it afterwards.

Hello Nan. Thank you. I finally had everything caught up, all my news, everything I wanted to post, and all the comments so far. That gave me the time to post things from pages I have not posted from in a long time. I hope that I can keep that up. But the reason I have had more time is my pain level with that set of back muscles that are out of control now, the pain has been so bad I couldn’t sleep or stay in bed. I have been awake by 2 or 3 AM. Ron has been trying to get up with me but ends up going back to bed. But it sure has helped me keep up with things. Hugs
Hello Nan. Have no fear, I am way behind again. So today I will spend trying to catch up on comments. That is until my back gives out and I cannot tolerate sitting at my desk any longer. Hugs

I’m glad that you’ve been able to get caught up … but definitely NOT glad about the reason WHY you’ve been able to do so. 😥
