What if every abortion was born? How abortion ruling could impact North Carolina foster care

As the nation faces the overturning of Roe v. Wade, an already stressed child welfare system is bracing for impact.

Across North Carolina during the 2020-21 fiscal year, 4,544 children entered the care of Child Welfare Custody, according to the UNC School of Social Work. Of those 38% went to foster care, with most of the children still in the system.

The National Foster Youth Institute says the current strain on the foster care system is evident. The Institute adds that while adoption has long been championed as a positive alternative to abortion, the lifelong effects the foster care system has on children are bleak.

Across the country, foster care advocates and experts agree that systems are overwhelmed by the number of children in their care.

Why aren't these so-called pro-lifers adopting these kids? Fucking hypocrites.

And yet, here we are fighting this all over again. The more things change the more they stay the same.
