We all have reason to fear for the future for our families and for children not yet conceived. Insurance is supposed to protect people, to proffer health and well-being.

The sick are poised to get a bit sicker now that many are losing insurance benefits that are valuable to not only their treatments but their lives as well.

Many people today have a skewed idea as to who the enemy is when it comes to abortion. Most think it’s the baby the defenseless child who is a “burden” who is unwanted or sick or just a victim of bad timing.

It is time for parents to take responsibility and arm children with the abilities to make moral decisions.

Yet, all too often, people don’t want to listen, and they definitely don’t want to act. They are then left to wonder what happened.
