What Wendy Davis’ political doublespeak means for children like my son

March 3, 2014/30 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

[Today’s guest post by JoAnna Wahlund is part of our paid blogging program.] Last June, Texas state senator Wendy Davis became infamous due to her ultimately unsuccessful attempt to filibuster proposed abortion laws that implemented rigorous safety regulations on abortion facilities and also banned abortion after 20 weeks gestation (with exceptions for the life of […]

Every Child is a Wanted Child

August 5, 2013/32 Comments/in Adoption & Foster Care, They Can Hear You, Uncategorized, Your Stories /by Guest Blogger

[Today’s guest post by Crystal Kupper is part of our paid blogging program.] I gasped the first time I saw her photo. Limbs splayed out across a metal crib, the little girl’s ribs nearly poked out of her chest. Her striped socks — the only piece of clothing she wore on her emaciated body — […]

Dear Jezebel: Real friends don’t count chromosomes.

July 16, 2013/12 Comments/in Ableism, Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

According to the Washington Times, there was a couple planning to abort their child diagnosed with Down syndrome. A priest made a deal with the couple–if he could find a good home for the baby before their state’s deadline for late-term abortions, the couple would not abort. The priest’s church reached out through Facebook for […]

Her Story: “I do have the strength to raise this child.”

September 19, 2012/3 Comments/in Uncategorized, Your Stories /by Guest Blogger

According to Michelle at Big Blueberry Eyes, in 2006 an anonymous poster shared the following story on a “termination for medical reasons” board: I have lurked here for years, and although my story may not be welcomed with open arms, I feel compelled to share it none-the-less. Like many of you, I received a pre-natal […]

Is Abortion Permissible for Fetal Deformity?

September 4, 2012/8 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Clinton Wilcox

[Today’s post is the first in a three-part series on “hard cases” by SPL member Clinton Wilcox. For the second post, on the rape exception, click here. For the third post, on life-threatening pregnancies, click here.] Now we get to the really tough questions about abortion. Can we justify abortion in the really hard cases? […]

International Down Syndrome Coalition

July 11, 2012/2 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

The International Down Syndrome Coalition (IDSC) is a religiously- and politically-neutral organization dedicated to supporting individuals with Down syndrome and their families.  According to IDSC, When a mother finds out her baby has Down syndrome, she needs support and helpful information.  What sometimes happens, instead, is that professionals, family members, and friends will pressure her […]

It’s October! Be aware!

October 16, 2010/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

For some reason, it seems that a disproportionate number of causes have chosen October as their awareness month. We all realize that it’s breast cancer awareness month, of course. I also assume that you’re aware of the Susan G. Komen Planned Parenthood funding issue. The Bioethics Defense Fund recommends that you give to the National […]

Newbies

October 5, 2010/13 Comments/in Uncategorized /by AmeliaLinne

So, last week was actually a pretty good one for sidewalk counseling. A triathlon closed down most of the road in front of the clinic, which made it a lot harder for people to show up. We only had half as many women come. Also, one woman came specifically to talk to us and show […]

Reflections on the 20th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act

July 26, 2010/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was signed by the first President Bush on this date in 1990. The ADA has undoubtedly done much to improve the lives of some disabled persons. It has improved access to transportation, jobs, and more: Democratic Sen. Tom Harkin of Iowa, an original sponsor of the legislation, introduced a […]
