A Department OF Human Services caseworker pressured a pregnant Mayfair teenager to undergo a late-term abortion by threatening to take away either her toddler or her unborn baby if she had the child, according to the teen’s foster mother.
The alleged strong-arm tactic happened one day after DHS learned of the pregnancy, when the girl was about 22 weeks pregnant, according to her foster mother and the girl’s social worker, Marisol Rivera.
The foster mother did not want to be identified in order to protect the girl’s identity.
The Daily News also learned that:
* DHS got a Family Court judge’s order allowing it to take the girl for an abortion, after the girl’s birth mother refused to approve the procedure.
This is sick. No other word (that can be posted on a Christian blog) is adequate.
Oh, I don’t know…how about, MURDER.
Between September 2006 and March 31, Schwarz said, 335 minors “under DHS care became pregnant. Of those, 119 resulted in abortions. Of those abortions, 54 were done by judge’s order.
Eight of the abortions were performed out of state, Schwarz said.”
=Govt. run healthcare
This is the reason why I cannot accept that it is “okay” for Christians to vote for a pro-choice candidate and for TEC to support abortion.
It was cheaper for the state, after all….
