Abortion linked to cerebral palsy
GAP sign: abortion leads to premature births
From the Elliot Institute:
Children whose mothers had a previous abortion were more likely to be born prematurely, putting them at greater risk for problems such as low-birth weight (which has been linked to physical and developmental problems), epilepsy, autism, mental retardation and cerebral palsy. A research team looking at data from 2002 estimated that prior abortions led to 1,096 cases of cerebral palsy among babies born prematurely that year.
Here’s the new GAP sign we have been using to highlight this link:
