The promotion of abortion has also promoted the belief that you can solve a problem by sweeping it under the rug. You can now have fun and if you get pregnant, an abortion will solve the problem before anyone knows. It has opened the way to widespread exploitation of women and girls. Before, a woman could hold a guy off because she did not want to get pregnant, but now that is no longer an adequate excuse because she can always abort the baby. Many cases of incest and rape are now hidden by forced abortions that dispose of the evidence. I used to work with a crisis pregnancy center and many of those who came in were under age 18. Some who were pregnant were as young as 11. That is considered statutory rape in all States since a child cannot give consent at that age. While we tried to help them deal with the pregnancy, we know that some went and got abortions anyway, because they felt it was the only possible solution. Since then, crisis pregnancy centers have developed a wide range of services to help girls carry their babies to term or put them up for adoption and it is easier to convince girls and women to carry their babies to term, however many girls and women are not aware of their services because the media promotes Planned Parenthood while suppressing information on crisis pregnancy centers.
