What I am trying to get through to here is that there are many others like Ryan and Pam. I want to see if Ms Blackwell comes across anyone in that field. I spoke earlier about an abortion. The child, to me, has no say whatever if it is aborted. That means the mother is fine. What kind of reception do people get when they present themselves who have been conceived as a result of rape? I am just asking a question. I cannot seem to get any answers from anyone on this.
