The grief of having your baby snatched (Call for forced adoption enquiry, August 9) is beyond imagining.
But Hillary Kieft, who lost her grandchild and the possibility of any
others when her teenage daughter Ariana was taken from school for a
botched abortion resulting in infertility for life, would want to warn them
that a select committee inquiry could be a waste of time.
The inquiry into Kieft’s petition, which called for parents to be notified
when their 15 year-old daughter wants an abortion, sought evidence from vested
interests such as Family Planning (read Abortion Provider) but incredibly,
excluded any group representing parents - who polls showed were in favour of
notification - and were gulled by data that was manifestly incorrect.
Why should these women, so unjustly bereft of their babies, now subject
themselves to the arduous process of an inquiry which may prove, like that of
the Justice and Electoral Reform Committee into parental notification, to be
grossly incompetent?
