Schiendler to Page: No unwanted children.....just unwanting parents
Pro Life Action League has a good series of posts called Today in League History. It is not
only interesting but encouraging to look back, remember events and see
progress. The post on this particular day remembers pro
abortion Chicago Tribune columnist Clarence Page , who participated in a
debate with League Director Joe Schiendler. Page, father of a son of
three weeks in June of 1989, declared his newborn son to be "pro
choice" because he was a wanted child. Schiendler reminds him
that there are no unwanted children, just unwanting parents — but that’s not
the child’s fault. Recently Page wrote about being honored for overcoming
the disability of stuttering and having a full professional life in
communications despite that disability. As I read about these two
events, I wondered if Page's parents would have been informed prenatally
that their son would have a speech impediment.......would they declare him
unwanted and end his life prematurely. This had a special meaning to me as my late husband was a stutter but an successful, intelligent engineer.
