My 14-Year-Old Daughter Was Raped By A Soldier...

"Mother’s Day 2011 — the memory of that day is so surreal. It is the day I found out our 14 year old daughter Pyper had been raped by an 18 year old soldier and was pregnant as a result. There was no going back to our perfect life, and this would be the first of many painful days for our family."

We've read and heard this before... a woman or young girl is raped and then her attacker tries to gain custody of the child conceived as a result. Often, for many of these women, it feels like they are being raped again!

But Angi Grogg, the mother of this young girl, and her family fought with everything they had to prtect their daughter and their little Noah, who had been conceived in rape.

Their story gives hope and inspiration to so many. And now she’s the co-founder and a Board Member of Hope After Rape Conception, and a national pro-life speaker and blogger for Save The 1.

Maine Supreme Court Gets It Right!

A sexual predator in Maine raped a girl when she was 13 and 14-years-old and, after she became pregnant and rejected an abortion, he filed a lawsuit seeking custody of the baby. We have heard and read this story before...right here at Consecrated Children. The good news is that the Maine Supreme Court decided that the rapist is not entitled to custody. Sullivan began sexually abusing Jane Doe when she was 13 or 14 and he was 60. This is a tragic story but good has come from it.

Keeping Her Baby After Rape, 14 Year Old Finds Hope Rejecting Abortion


PJ's story is more common than you may think. And her experience--of not getting a conviction, and the having to fight the rapist for child custody--is also more common than you think. Read PJ's for yourself here.

Isn't it time laws are changed to protect rape victims from the second trauma of having to fight her rapist for custody if she conceives as a result of the rape, and chooses to parent her baby!?!
