People need to stop blaming the victims of sexual assault. Innocent babies do not deserve the death penalty because they were conceived in rape. Their brave mothers deserve our support, not further abuse. Instead of punishing the victims, society should be focused on apprehending, prosecuting, and imprisoning the rapists.

I was date-raped when I was 23. I didn't get pregnant but if I did, I would hope that I would have made the same decision as your mother. Why should the baby OR the mother be chastised for the sin/crime of another?

I know a family whose younger son was conceived through rape. But they have stated that he is such an asset in their ministry and they are thankful for his life, no matter how it came to be!
