Why not adoption?
I thought ~~ and probably wrong about this ~~ that one of the reasons that some RWs were so opposed to abortion is that there are families begging to adopt these babies of unwanted pregnancies. Did I get their priorities wrong?

Sooooooo....if Sarah Palin is so smart and well put together and has the best interests of her grandchild upper most in her mind ~~ why in the hell are these two teenagers getting married instead of having the child put put for adoption to a married couple with an established home? Why not give these two teens some opportunity to get an education and get on their feet and if they really, really love each other and this was not just some teen hormones getting out of control, they can get married after they get themselved at least through high school.

<Note: This is NOT a put down on unwed teen moms ~~ this has to do with the issue that the RWs seem to push so much about putting the baby up for adoption.>
