All eyes turned to peer at a little boy sitting in the House Chamber on Wednesday at the state Capitol.
A woman at the podium told the crowd seated around him that she regretted having an abortion at one time because she didn’t know she had other options.
However, the woman said when faced with a second unwanted pregnancy, she chose to put the child up for adoption because someone at her church took her to a pregnancy help center. There, she was told she could choose “life” instead of abortion.
