Planned Parenthood acknowledges in its Fact Sheet on “Reducing Teenage Pregnancy” that “teenagers who have been raped or abused experience higher rates of pregnancy – 4.5 out of 10 pregnant adolescents likely have a history of abuse.”

I am reading a report that is both fascinating and repugnant at the same time! It was produced by Americans United for Life and it is titled, The Case for Investigating Planned parenthood. This report is dated July7th, 2011 (just came out yesterday) and the subheading says, "AUL Looks Behind the Closed Doors of the Nation's Largest Abortion Provider."

I have pulled just two paragraphs from the report  to give you a few statistics and to let you know what you might have already thought ... abortion is used MANY TIMES to cover up sexual abuse by a father, brother, cousin, uncle, or someone else either close to the child or living in the same household. There is a case study of the same 13 year old girl making trip after trip to Planned Parenthood (I still can't get over the name "Planned Parenthood") after her brother (10 years older) continues to impregnate her! Planned Parenthood is required by law to report this type of activity to the police but the RARELY do (according to this 181 page study).

“Reducing Teenage Pregnancy” that “teenagers who have been raped or abused experience higher rates of pregnancy – 4.5 out of 10 pregnant adolescents likely have a history of abuse.” Planned Parenthood also notes that “teenage girls with a history of abuse are more than twice as likely to become pregnant as peers who do not experience abuse.” Among women younger than 18, the pregnancy rate among those with a partner who is six or more years older is 3.7 times as high as the rate among those whose partner is no more than two years older.

A report prepared for the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation, Department of Health and Human Services noted that half of children born to minors are fathered by adult men, and sexual partners of these adolescents are often 3 to 6 years older. The report also found that 75 percent of girls under 14 years of age who have engaged in sexual activity
report having a forced sexual experience.

This is the world we live in! Are we making a difference?
