Paraguay, a model country for today's modern conservative:
ASUNCION, Paraguay (AP) — An 11-year-old girl who was denied an abortion after being raped gave birth Thursday, the culmination of a case that put a spotlight on child rape in this poor South American nation and drew criticism from human rights groups.
Elizabeth Torales, a lawyer for the girl's mother, told The Associated Press that the minor gave birth to a baby girl via cesarean in a Red Cross hospital in Asuncion, Paraguay's capital. She said reported there were no complications and both the mother and baby were resting.
...
The girl was allegedly raped and impregnated by her stepfather when she was 10. The stepfather has been arrested and is awaiting trial. The girl's mother has been charged with negligence.
The mother requested an abortion for her daughter, but the government refused to allow it, drawing praise from religious groups but criticism from many human rights organizations, including U.N. officials.
...
About 600 girls age 14 or under become pregnant each year in this country of 6.8 million people, according to local health statistics.
Think twice before you vote Republican. They believe in small government except if that government needs to enter the uterus of a 10 year old rape victim and instead destroy her life by forcing her to carry a rape-child to term.
Extrapolate a population of 300 million here in the Greatest Country On Earth, and we could ruin the lives of 26000+ children each year!
