As for women pregnant with an unwanted infant, a study at the University of South Carolina indicated that they “had a greater than twofold risk of delivering a child who died within the first 28 days of life.” The study was not comprehensive, but one of the epidemiologist concluded, “Being unwanted puts children at increased risk of a range of adverse health outcomes, including child abuse and delayed cognitive and social-emotional development.”
Nancy Friday wrote that in Our Looks, Our Lives in 1999. Do I need to add anything?
