The New York Times recently ran an article with that pro-abortion claim this week in response to the U.S. Supreme Court considering Mississippi’s request to overturn Roe v. Wade and allow states to protect unborn babies from abortion again.

Life News reports:

“Six in ten women who have abortions are already mothers, and half of them have two or more children,” the New York Times article stated, citing data from the CDC. Because unborn babies are not children, the women bearing them are not “already mothers,” in the newspaper’s twisted anti-scientific thinking.

Ushma Upadhyay, a professor with Advancing New Standards in Reproductive Health, a pro-abortion research group at the University of California San Francisco, told the newspaper that some women choose abortions to be a “better parent.”

“One of the main reasons people report wanting to have an abortion is so they can be a better parent to the kids they already have,” Upadhyay said.

But it is comments like Upadhyay’s that manipulate and mislead women into thinking this in the first place. A professor of all people should know that a woman who has an abortion already is a mother, whether she has older children or not. She is the mother of her unborn baby, and she and the father have a responsibility to protect and care for their child.

Fred, we should never wish that kind of pain on anyone. People are passionate on both sides of the political spectrum. I am totally opposed to abortion and I wish the other side realized that baby is a human being upon conception. They are ok with killing innocent babies in the most gruesome manners. But, they are entitled to their own opinion.

Amazing claim about abortions and being a better “mother”! How about the women that have MULTIPLE ABORTIONS? What’s their excuse? Abortions are not necessary if you use birth control as prescribed. Many are just careless! The unborn child then bears the result of their carelessness! A death sentence is given for someone else’s failure!

Beside merely telling lies all the time the NYT has now became something that should be subject to psychiatric treatment. That means every member of the dysfunctional organization belongs in a padded room and/or a straight jacket!!

Based on that idiotic “logic”, people read the NY Times in order to be better informed citizens and keep up on real news. In a pig’s eye!

Using this line of reasoning then, if a parent already has two children then they would murder one of the children to provide more resources (time and money) to the lucky remaining child. NYT is the personification of evil.

NYT is quoting some Asian pro abortion ”professor” who is not an MD, another Dr. Jill no doubt, and probably a good card carrying member of the commie democrats. It would be interesting to know who is funding her research.

EXCUSE ME!!!! Just because the baby is not born yet, does not mean that child is not alive. Ask any woman, who has had a child. The heart beats, the baby gets the hic cups, the baby moves and stretches and kicks. That baby IS alive. Rather born or not, it IS still a child. This is the most sickening response to justify infantcide. And it’s even more sickening that they would believe what they say.

That is the absolute worst attempt of justifying murdering baby’s that I’ve ever heard. Instead of spending money to allow people to kill the baby’s, how about you invest that money on free birth control so people can take every step to avoid abortion. I think the money could be better spent helping prevent pregnancies then to perform murder right 🤷🏻‍♀️ Just sayin

When a very bad person shoots a pregnany woman and kills both her and the unborn CHILD this bad person is tried and convicted of two humans and not just one. Why? Because the people and the courts have long recognized two lives were lost. If there are any states that do not recognize this they then do recognize it is a states athourity to recognize if an abortion and a murder are in fact the same under the law and what exceptions, if any, can be made.
