21/365: Adoption is ALWAYS the answer

I was horrified to find out that in the new health care bill there is a abortion clause. If I did agree with the whole national health care thing (which I don't), this would seriously change my mind.  This clause means that if a woman becomes pregnant and does not want it, the government will pay for her to end the pregnancy. That means your tax dollars are going towards ending a baby's life, so you are paying to fix her mistake. I would like to pride myself on being a "free thinking", "woman empowering" woman, but I can not stand for this. As a parent of two adopted children I don't understand how a woman can do that. In my mind if you don't want to be a parent then don't do the stuff to become one, but when you do please make the right choice for you and the child. Abortion is so selfish to me, there are thousands of women that long to be mothers. Thousands that long to hold a child, to smell baby's breathe and to see a child's first smile, to hear a child's first laugh. If your not ready to me a parent, please think of all the women who cant: give them the gift of a child. I have many friends that have adopted children and many more that would adopt or adopt again; myself being one of them. Adoption to me is always the answer, I have two amazing children because it was the right answer. I thank God everyday for my children and the birth mothers that gave them to me. Adoption works for everyone......Please think about it!!!

Goodnight all; See ya'll tomorrow
