But then you inflate the true cost - to $25k-$30k with no support … and compare the 9-10 months of caring for not one but two patients in clinic and hospital with many technicians and lab workers … with the purposeful killing and dismemberment of one patient and no real medicare for the the second patientI wish the bishops would address the skyrocketing costs of choosing life and maternity leave - unreasonably expensive costs, even WITH insurance, that are difficult to justify in a “pro-life” culture. Aren’t delivery costs any less expensive in Catholic hospitals?
It’s easy to be “pro-life” when you only limit the term to be anti-abortion. Being “pro-life” for the unborn baby’s mommy…a little more difficult.

Workers don’t have rights?One of my personal favourites is “worker’s rights”.
I know *a lot *about adoption, for reasons I’m not going to go into in public.Have you never heard of adoption?
Doesn’t sound inflated to me. The cost for the delivery of each of my daughters was $20K+. And that’s not counting post-natal care, pre-natal care, mom’s hospital stay after delivery, or anything else. That’s what the bill was 30 seconds after my daughters drew their first breaths.But then you inflate the true cost - to $25k-$30k with no support … and compare the 9-10 months of caring for not one but two patients in clinic and hospital with many technicians and lab workers … with the purposeful killing and dismemberment of one patient and no real medicare for the the second patient

It’s not easy and it’s not cheap.
Where was that? How in the world you got ripped off dry?Doesn’t sound inflated to me. The cost for the delivery of each of my daughters was $20K+.

That was very brave of her biological mother. Brave because it is such a hard thing to do.I married someone who was adopted and not aborted
Preach.Make “pro-life” affordable again.
Agreed. From the article:A lot of Catholics need to read this. But instead, they’ve got their made-ready excuses fresh from the secular godless post-modernists.
My favorite was this:Recognizing Catholic legislators who support laws directed at supporting immigrants and the impoverished, the message applauded “their work giving voice to the voiceless.”
“We want to be clear,” the bishops concluded. “Individuals and groups do not speak for the Catholic Church. As bishops, we do.”
