Recent reports show that women today between the ages of 25 and 34 are dying at a higher rate than women baby boomers did at that age. The rate of homicides, suicides, and maternal related deaths in that age group are quite a bit higher now. While no study has been done on the exact causes of each, some facts are known. Baby boomers were born after the Second World War beginning in 1946 and the first ones reached 25 in 1970. Roe vs Wade in 1976 opened the doors to abortion. Increased pregnancies out of wedlock have occurred once women were told they could have sex without worrying about pregnancies. They had previously avoided sex due to fear of pregnancy but were assured they no longer had to worry about that and many began engaging in sex while single. Since contraceptives have a high failure rate, which girls were not told, it has resulted in a lot of unwanted pregnancies. Boyfriends and child molesters, upset by the prospect of being saddled with child support have killed the girls to avoid it or at least killed them I a fit of anger. That could be part of the cause in the higher homicide rates. In addition, sex education courses given by Planned Parenthood to middle school and even elementary school which teach children to engage in sex before they can handle it responsibly and assures them that contraceptives will prevent pregnancy, which is not true, contributes to girls getting pregnant at an early age, before their bodies are fully developed, which could result in serious complications. While working at a pro-life Pregnancy center during a short period while I was out of work, I saw three girls who were pregnant while only eleven years old. A pregnancy at that age could be quite difficult for the girl. In addition, while factors endangering the mother during pregnancy have been reduced to almost non-existent, the deaths from complications in pregnancy have risen. Planned Parenthood does their best to hide the fact that women are rushed to the hospital due to botched abortions, hasty abortions often result in a perforated uterus and numerous cases have been documented by pro-life sidewalk observers. In addition, women have been sent home with excess bleeding and told not to worry, it will stop. Some who experienced a perforated uterus during the abortion, have gone to the hospital on their own and some have been saved, but others have died, and others did not go to the hospital and died at home. Some coroners have tried to hide abortion deaths by listing them as simply complications in pregnancy. That could account for some rise in pregnancy related deaths. In addition, women having abortions often experience depression afterward. While depression often occurs after giving birth, it is more pronounced after an abortion once the girl realizes she killed a living baby and not just a blob of tissue as she was told. That could account for some of the increase in suicides in that age group. While these three factors could account for some of the rises in deaths, it is hard to tell how much since abortion providers do everything they can to hide the connection between abortions and deaths in women. Anything that can help reduce the death rate in young women should be explored and reducing the deaths from abortions is obviously one possibility.
