Despite what feminists may say there IS such a thing as a natural fathering instinct. Given how many aborts are done by non Christians there will be plenty of kids up there with no natural parent coming for them. I hope to be blessed 18 times over. We’ll be riding around in our Schwinn’s (the perfect 1950’s ones) so keep a eye out for us.Paul-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Paul, Good point! (I'm no feminist, for sure...)We do see some Dads in our pregnancy center, too---- (We have a Dad's group, as well)
The couples who come in for our parenting classes are our favorites, and their kids are so blessed!
One of the biggest problems in society today is the fatherless home; Moms are sometimes forced to raise a child alone, but it is never ideal. The kids pay a big price. (From one source, 85% of men in prison grew up in a fatherless home.) http://www.fathermag.com/news/2778-stats.shtml
None have come to our post-abortion counseling, but we know that Dads are very affected by abortion, as well!
We women tend to moinimize this, but we shouldn't--It's so often a great loss, for them as well.'Didn't mean to leave Dads out---the barrren women are married to men who also have empty arms here--but who will father so many there!Hey, I'll be looking for those neat 50's Schwinns! (BTW, I owned one myself! :) )
