If the story about your wife is true, I am very sorry to hear that. I don't think that millions of dollars held in an account bears any kind of similarity to a pregnancy/child resulting from rape. Not in the slightest. I am sorry, but it really doesn't compare. The death is a desperately sad result of circumstances that may or may not have been avoidable, leaving you with immense grief. But the rape was always avoidable. It was an act of despicable violence that the perpetrator had a choice not to pursue. For the grieving widower, millions of dollars held in a trust is not a liability. It's taken care of on your behalf. For the raped woman left with a child, there is no one taking care of that child if the woman simply doesn't have the capacity to care for it, there's no one providing the finances to support the child, and there's no one offering respite for the woman while she raises the child as a single mother.

I am sorry for your circumstances but it sounds as if you have a very loving mother who had desired a child, chosen to conceive a child, and knew that she had the resources to raise a child. That's truly wonderful. Congratulations. But it's not how every pregnancy begins.

Conceiving and birthing are different things. You may have confused the two.

I wonder, is as much effort going into educating young men to live healthy, wholesome lives, and helping to curb abusive behaviours as there is going into banning abortions?
