I'm no expert, but I did bear two children at six months...and I know what a preemie on the cusp of viability looks like.
Sum? I agree with you that this photo is alarmist garbage: the sort of thing often used by it's original poster.

I am shocked............SHOCKED, I tell you...........at the way some people use innocent children purely for political gain.

After all, we all know outlawing abortion would do no more to end abortion as outlawing assault rifles would stop anyone from getting them.

SO what happens after the child is born? Our son was adopted during my first marriage. At the end of six months we recived a birth certificate with out names as the parents.

Until you change your assinine adoption laws here people will still go to foreign lands to adopt. I suspect the US adoption laws were written by Hammurabi, as frankkly were most of the laws.

But seriously, what solution is there? There's already huge support. Keeping kids out of jail, poverty? More cops on the streets is a good start but poor cities can't afford them.
