These parents rejected abortion and chose life for their child
Recently, everyday parents have spoken out on social media about choosing life for their children despite the odds.
Despite a flood of voices telling them to abort, they said no.
Despite doctors’ predictions of low-quality life, they saw the value in their child and said yes to life – however short.
Despite those who may forget, they remember the precious children who were miscarried.
Despite scheduling an abortion, they walked out, knowing that the decision they made in that moment would change their lives in the best way, forever.
These parents – and so many like them – illustrate one reason the abortion rates are dropping in our nation. Despite Planned Parenthood’s claims to the contrary, abortion rates are dropping because more moms and dads are choosing life.
Danny, who has written one of Live Action’s most popular opinion articles (see it here) and is about to release his first album with Commander Wallace, shared this Facebook post:


Another girl (Live Action told her story of walking out of a Planned Parenthood here) wrote this on Facebook on June 17, 2015:
Dear Reader,
Every day in America, more than 2,800 preborn babies lose their lives to abortion.
That number should break our hearts and move us to action.
Ending this tragedy requires daily commitment from people like you who refuse to stay silent.
Millions read Live Action News each month — imagine the impact if each of us took a stand for life 365 days a year.
Right now, we’re urgently seeking 500 new Life Defenders (monthly donors) to join us before the end of October. And thanks to a generous $250,000 matching grant, your first monthly gift will be DOUBLED to help save lives and build a culture that protects the preborn.

Together, we can end abortion and create a future where every child is cherished and every mother is supported.
Three years ago I was told I should consider an abortion for [my son]. The Doctors thought he had hydrocephalus, and would be brain dead. I’m praising God today that my son is beyond perfect and is the light of my life.
Carolyn, author of the article “I Chose Life. And His Name is Lexington Anthony,” had this to say:
Lexington is a unique and separate little life.
Many times you’ll hear some older person talking about their life in a boring, unsatisfied tone saying, “Yeah I coulda done this or that, but life happened. . . .”
YES. Life. It happened.
Lexington happened.
He was supposed to happen.

Another mom posted this on Instagram:


Lora, inspired by singer Kimberly Henderson’s story of walking out of an abortion facility, shared her own beautiful choice for life. Her four quad babies have now graduated from school and are wonderful adults (pictured in the lower right-hand corner).

So this week, let’s celebrate the moms and dads who choose life. And, if or when we are ever personally faced with such a choice, let’s join the growing number of parents who know that life is always the choice worth making.
Choose life. No matter what.
