The story in the 20 April issue of the Times about the incest dad who was apprehended shows why allowing abortion in the case of incest is counterproductive. Had the girls given in to abortion, the primary evidence against the father-namely, the children who were conceived-would have been destroyed. The girls might have been right back in the same abusive situation at home, and the children who were conceived-who were completely innocent of any wrongdoing-would have been killed. Thankfully, the girls were spared the trauma of abortion and the potential for further abuse. Praise for these girls and the others who helped them stand up for their own dignity and the lives of their children. Now, hopefully, justice can be done. Yes to life; no to abortion.
