A higher percentage of women that get pregnant “unexpectedly” are carrying their pregnancies to term.
It is good to see that more people are saying “I can” rather than “I can’t”, when they engage in activity that results in the creation of life. I am sure that the instances where a woman was not a willing participant are a very low percentage and probably were not even part of this study. And not matter how someone gets pregnant, the baby does not deserve the death penalty! If the parents can’t take responsibility for the life/lives made as a result of their own actions, adoption is always an option.
Women Carrying More Unexpected Pregnancies to Term, Avoid Abortions (emphasis added)
…
Atlanta, GA (LifeNews.com) — A new study conducted by the National Center for Health Statistics finds women who are pregnant unexpectedly are carrying their pregnancies to term more often than they have before. Pro-life groups hailed the news saying it means fewer women with unplanned pregnancies are having abortions.
…
The Alan Guttmacher Institute, a research group affiliated with Planned Parenthood, told AP the NCHS study shows similar results to their own findings.
…
Susan Wills of the pro-life office at the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops said the results were “no mystery” to her.
“The new data underscores that more women are turning away from abortions, even when it’s a pregnancy they don’t initially want,” Wills told AP. “It shows a real pro-life shift.”
Karen Pearl of Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion business, disagreed and claimed the lower numbers appeared because Congress and state lawmakers are doing more to limit access to abortion. She also lamented that efforts to increase abstinence awareness may have also played apart.
…
Some 25 percent of women under 18 classified their pregnancy as unwanted and just 10 percent of women between the ages of 30 and 44 said that. Women most likely to say their pregnancy was unplanned were black (26 percent) or Hispanic (16.8 percent).

To think, actually telling people to close their legs might actually work! God’s plan is always the best plan and people keeping their legs closed in the first place has a 100% proven record of preventing any “unwanted” babies from being created.
Of course news like this is something that Planned Parenthood considers to be bad for what is becoming more of their primary business.
