Adoption is the practical and moral alternative to abortion &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 I find it hard to comprehend how people can turn their backs on the option
of adoptionThis life-saving institution is not given the attention it
rightfully deserves. Millions of unwanted pregnancies are terminated every
year, while many good people are yearning to have and love a child of their
o~wn. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; There are many problems in our society that seem without a solution.
However, here is a problem that has a solution, but one that many individuals
refuse to consider. Year after year, abortion rates rise, as do the waiting
lists of adoptive parents. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 Adoption gives life. It gives life to the children, the adoptive parents
and to the struggling individuals unable~ to take care of their children. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 Over and over again we see how a caring individual can change a child's
life from ill-fated to industrious. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 There are loving men and women out there willing to make this world a
better place for those children whose parents cannot. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 If pregnant mothers decide that they cannot raise a child, they should
think of the child before terminating their pregnancies. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 Children hold all of the goodness that humans have to offer. Why would we
take that chance to share away from them? &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 I pray before a lost and confused young woman thinks of abortion, she will
first think adoption -- and a life will be saved. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
