I believe that is correct in as far as newborns are concerned... As kids get older it gets tougher to find homes for them when they are taken out of homes that are deemed unfit for some reason... I'm sure there are statistics if somebody wished to look but there are a good many kids in foster care that don't find their way into caring homes... A good many kids aren't put up for adoption at birth and end up in the system later... If all unwanted pregnancies were put up for adoption then it is doubtful abortion would be the issue that it is but unfortunately they are not... I believe it is a lot tougher to find homes for special needs babies and it seems the right to life crowd object to these abortions also.
