@Cakers3@I agree with you but what about the rights of helpless children born....very sad to think about for me.
@dex In a perfect world every child would be born to loving parent/parents.
With food, shelter, warmth, education, etc. We all know this.
However, we know that there is no such thing as a perfect world and sadly the most helpless among us suffer.
Of course children have rights; nobody is saying that her rights supercede that of any potential child she may have in the future. The issue is she cannot be stopped and projecting what she may do if she does have another child is not going to change what may happen.
The best anybody can do is hope or pray that if she does have another child that we will not see a repeat of the past. Unless she proves to be unfit with a new baby, that is all that will matter.
Projection about the unwanted, unloved, uncared for child is not the issue here; the issue, for me, is doing what we can for those children already suffering at the hands of abusive caregivers, at the hands of sex trade smugglers, at the hands of economic inequality.
There are small voices crying now; focus on them instead of a "what if" that may never happen.
