Abortion bans don’t lead to a surplus of unwanted children.

March 9, 2022/0 Comments/in Adoption & Foster Care, Research, Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

Some pro-choice people predict that abortion restrictions or bans will lead to a major increase in unwanted children. They occasionally claim abortion restrictions will lead to miserable, trapped mothers and abused, neglected children, an idea that is also behind the (tenuous) connection they draw between abortion restrictions and the foster care system. For example: Several […]

Study: Women explain their abortions more in terms of religion and motherhood than autonomy.

October 13, 2021/0 Comments/in Research, Uncategorized /by Sarah St. Onge

The pro-choice position has long focused on the role religious fervor plays in anti-abortion politics. Images of nuns marching with anti-abortion protestors are splashed across our front pages, and video clips of evangelical men with megaphones and Bibles protesting outside of clinics are ubiquitous online. It seems all but a forgone conclusion that an individual’s […]
