Back in August, voters in Kansas defeated a state constitutional amendment that would have reaffirmed the fact that there is not a legal right to abortion in the state.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Conservatives have statistics, logic and science on their side. So what\u2019s going on? I believe they\u2019re spending too much time focusing on the evils of abortion and not enough time promoting the alternative, which is adoption.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/adoption-services-president-pushes-back-against-media-abortion-narrative-something-tangible\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>ADOPTION SERVICES PRESIDENT PUSHES BACK AGAINST MEDIA ABORTION NARRATIVE: \u2018WE\u2019VE GOT TO DO SOMETHING TANGIBLE&#8217;<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Saturday is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/opinion\/national-adoption-month-children-in-need-forever-families\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">National Adoption Day<\/a>, an annual event designed to raise awareness of those waiting to find forever homes \u2013 and those whose lives have been spared and shaped by their new families.<\/p>\n<p>Seventeen years ago, my birth mother had an important decision to make. She could choose abortion or adoption \u2013 death or life. I\u2019m so glad that she chose life. Yet, I\u2019m sure this was not an easy choice for her.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She was young, in school, and had her whole future ahead of her. There was also a part of her that desperately wanted to raise me. However, she knew she couldn\u2019t be both a mother and a father. I\u2019ve been told that tears filled Julianna\u2019s eyes and fell on me as she placed me in my parent\u2019s arms.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As a direct result of this heroic decision, I have the ability to live and to pursue my dreams. Even better, I have had the opportunity to meet my biological family and to build relationships with many of them, including my birth mother.<\/p>\n<p>People often view adoption as simply handing your child away to complete strangers, but this isn\u2019t the reality. My birth mother chose to have an open adoption. This means that she was directly involved in the process of deciding who would raise me and she has continued to be in contact with me throughout my life. She seems to take every opportunity she has to be there for me.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>About eight months ago, I competed at a speech and debate tournament at Colorado Christian University. Coincidentally, my birth mother happened to be in town during the competition. Of all the things she could have done with her time, she chose to come and watch me as I debated and spoke.<\/p>\n<p>This is just one example of the love she has shown me over the years. My relationship with her has been anything but distant, and I\u2019m so thankful for that.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Julianna\u2019s family has also embraced me. My biological grandparents treat my entire adopted family as if my parents and brothers were biologically related to them as well. Every time they give me a gift, they include my other siblings, which means the world to them and to me. I feel as if I have not one, but two families, both of which love me dearly.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Adoption might be seen by many in a negative light, but in reality, it leads to an abundance of love. Everyone in my adopted family has been impacted by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/family\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">love of my biological family<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/newsletters\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><u>CLICK HERE TO GET THE OPINION NEWSLETTER<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This past summer my parents and I attended a wedding in Denver for my birth mother\u2019s niece. At the reception, Julianna warmly and lovingly introduced us to friends by saying, &#8220;This is my son, and these are his parents.&#8221; Although she chose adoption, she never stopped <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/lifestyle\/parenting\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">viewing me as her son<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>All of us have an obligation to save the innocent lives ended by abortion. In order to achieve this, we must not only condemn death, but celebrate life. My birth mother, Julianna, is a perfect example of the bravery and courage it takes to choose adoption. We ought to recognize her, and all women who choose life, as the heroes they are.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/opinion\/im-so-grateful-my-birth-mom-chose-life\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/opinion\/im-so-grateful-my-birth-mom-chose-life <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The autopsy on the 2022 midterm elections is still underway, but many on the Right are asking an important question: Why is abortion such a [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"twitter_2902945987_2902945987":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","footnotes":""},"categories":[16563],"tags":[],"stock_ticker":[],"class_list":["post-47898","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-market-news","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
