Did DHS pressure teen to get abortion?
A Pennsylvania Department of Human Services caseworker pressured a pregnant Mayfair teenager to undergo a late-term abortion by threatening to take away either her toddler or her unborn baby if she had the child, according to the teen's foster mother. The alleged strong-arm tactic happened one day after DHS learned of the pregnancy, when the girl was about 22 weeks pregnant, according to her foster mother and the girl's social worker, Marisol Rivera. Rivera said she was fired after she initially refused to accompany the teen for the abortion. "They hired me to work in child protection, not to kill children." Daily News
