Teen Abortion Rate Drops to Historic Low, Down 66% Since 1988
A
new report from the Guttmacher Institute finds teenage abortion rates
are down to their lowest levels since 1988, a drop of 66 percent from
that peak.
Guttmacher also reports that teen pregnancy and teen birth rates are down to historic lows. From 1986 to 2010, the proportion of teenage pregnancies ending in abortion (i.e., the abortion ratio) declined by one-third, from 46% to 30%. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
MTV Star Catelynn Lowell: Why is It Illegal to Destroy an Eagle Egg But Not Abort a Baby?
Teen Mom stars Catelynn Lowell and Tyler Baltierra have never been shy

decided to give their biological daughter Carly to wonderful adoptive
parents who could give her a stable life when they got pregnant at 16.
lJust recently, they traveled to Ireland to speak at the Love Life Festival. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/

These Babies Didn’t Live Long After Birth, But Their Lives Still Had Meaning
While
some hospitals may not grant the dignity of life saving treatment to
prematurely born children, several inspiring stories of parents who have
gotten to spend a precious
few minutes or hours with their children are making it into the news as
well.

Just
last week, a blog post from Matt Wessell, a musician from Wisconsin, was
shared, titled “World’s Best Mom” about the few hours he and his wife
had with their son, Randol Thomas, who was born at the gestational age
of 25 weeks. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
Abortion Clinic Counselor Films Her Own Abortion “To Show People It’s Not Scary”
At
the very end of March, we ran a post written by Lauren Enriquez, which
she aptly titled, “Clinic worker films her own abortion in bizarre
video.” She—meaning Emily Letts—actually videotaped her own abortion.

Lauren wrote
“The
video opens with Emily explaining her feelings and justification for the
abortion. Giggling, she says ‘Yeah, I’m gonna be having an abortion
tomorrow morning!’ Emily’s video includes (non-graphic) filming during
the abortion. The experience was anomalous compared with the recorded
testimonies of many post-abortive women. The doctor was extremely
friendly, Emily was smiling the whole time, and two clinic workers were
present on either side of Emily to hold her hands during her child’s
death.” http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
Mom Killed Her Newborn Baby to Save Her Sex Life, Cut His Throat Minutes After Birth
We
live in a post-abortion culture where the value of life has been
degraded in part because human life is now viewed as dependent solely on
the wishes of another. When unborn babies can be sacrificed on the
altar of choice and convenience, infanticide becomes more easily
justified.
Now here is the terrible story of a young woman in Germany who killed her own newborn baby because she didn’t want to ruin her sex life by being a single mother. She cut his throat 30 minutes after her baby boy was born and then went to dance at a local disco. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/

Sunday afternoon he was reunited with her. Hickman found a baby in the
woods while hunting in 1955. Hickman spent the next 58 years trying to

On

endured plenty of obstacles in her first decade on earth, yet her

the fact they at first suffered a miscarriage when trying for their
third child. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
