What do you think will happen to Michael and Brandon's foster kids if she gets pregnant while they're still living with them? I know it's not likely that will happen, but her sister-in-law Monica was struggling with infertility for 8 years before getting pregnant. It could still happen for them.

I don't think something will happen to the fosterchildren but I'm not sure as I don't know the US rules good. I'm even not so sure about them in the Netherlands. In the Netherlands, and I believe Ben&Jessa talked about that too being in the US, you can't bring more fosterchildren in your house when you are pregnant. But I don't think it means that the fosterchildren already being in the household have to go.

Alabama Abortion Ban

Let's just take a minute to look at statistics.

There are approximately 6,000 children in Alabama's foster system.

There are around 17 abortions performed per day in Alabama, a state that only has about 5 clinics that perform the procedure.

If you times 17*365 you get 6,205.

In the next few years Alabama is looking at more than doubling their dependents, from not having abortions alone.

So to all those pro-lifers that say to put the kid up for adoption, I had better see you ready to take in the tens of thousands of kids that will be available to you.

Otherwise you can just fuck off because it's #mybodymychoice

P.s. All of this information is freely available on both the CDC website and the Guttmacher Institute. As well as the Alabama government website for the foster system statistics.

Lance Hillsinger-Protecting Our Children in Foster Care

Lance Hillsinger worked in social services for 34 years and has written two books based on those experiences. He has a master's degree in psychology from Vanderbilt University and a bachelor's degree in psychology and political science from UCLA. Hilsinger’s first, “In Place of the Parent: Inside Child Protective Services,’ examines the child welfare/juvenile court system. His second book, “Build a Better Bridge: Social Policy for the 21st Century,” the author goes beyond child welfare and examines social welfare programs (cash aid, food stamps, etc.) in general. However, he points out that social welfare programs do not generate welfare. Intergenerational wealth is created, for most families, by homeownership. Thus, in “Build A Better Bridge”, He offers various low-cost/no-cost ideas to increase homeownership as well as reduce truancy, crime, and other social ills that so often accompany poverty. While both books are written in an easy-to-read style. They seek to inform and persuade for common-sense change. Listen to the episode...
