like they are property,” said Jefferson Drezett, a gynecologist and
coordinator of the sexual-abuse victims service at the hospital. “This

So, not surprisingly, this article from the NYT tries to make it seem like the problem with the excommunication of the doctors who aborted the babies of the 9 year old in Brazil is the churches fault. As if abortion will somehow solve the problem of sexual abuse! Perhaps if we honored the dignity of life, rape and sexual abuse would not be so prevalent …I don't know…I only know that now these poor kids have to deal with 2 traumas..the trauma of rape and incest, and the trauma of abortion. Abortion does not take away the fact that they have been sexually abused…it only adds to the pain…
I think all these people need to read this book…Although there is the added trauma of the age of these girls, I do not believe abortion is ever the answer…
