In 31 States, Rapists Are Allowed to Seek Custody of The Children Born As A Result of Their Crime

Yes, you read that correctly! In 31, that's in thirty-one states a rapist can seek custody of the child conceived as a result of his crime! Yes, in more than 60% of the states in this country, a man can rape a women, and if she conceives as a result and carries her baby to term, he can block an adoption and/or seek custody of this child. And since it is estimated that more than 25,000 women conceive each year as a result of the crime of rape, this impacts a larger number of women and their babies than most people realize!

Why aren't the feminists tackling this "War on Women and Their Children?"

When Shauna Prewitt was raped as a 21-year-old, and conceived her daughter as a result of the rape, she made the brave decision to have her baby and raise her. She had no idea that her rapist could and would come after her daughter, seeking custody.

Today Shauna is a legal scholar and author. You are an amazing woman, Ms. Prewitt! And your story will continue to inspires others and make a difference in the lives of women and children around the world!

I encourage you to also read her story from CNN.

Another Brave 11-year-old Stands Up for the Life of Her Baby

Yet another courageous CHILD says NO to having her baby killed, despite being conceive via rape!
She’s an 11-year-old girl from a small, southern and rural Chilean town. And even at this tender age she has known inconceivable hurt and pain. For the better part of the last 18 months her mother’s live-in lover has raped her repeatedly, and then she conceived a child. Sadly, Belén became the tool-du-jour for those who advocate and promote abortion all over Latin America – a region rich with pro-life laws and sentiments which are anathema to regressive pro-abortionists. But then the most remarkable thing happened. This amazing girl went on national television and told her story. She assured everyone that she was aware of the circumstances that had led to her pregnancy, but stated she already loved her baby. Calmly, she told her audience that it was fear that had kept her from reporting the abuse – but that in spite of who the father was, she really wanted this child. Read all of Belén's story and please keep her and her baby in your thoughts and prayers!
