Baby Saved from Coerced Abortion by Texting

Meet Manuel, a Baby Saved from Coerced Abortion by Texting :Operation Rescue: Tara Shaver was sidewalk counseling outside Planned Parenthood in Albuquerque, New Mexico, when she received a call from a woman who told her that her grandson’s girlfriend was being forced to get an abortion that she did not want. The woman told Tara her grandson, the baby’s father, also wanted to keep the baby. They were desperate, because the girl was only 17 and her mother was insisting on the abortion against the girl’s will. The grandmother gave Tara the teen’s cell phone number. Tara began a text-message conversation with the teen while she was inside the clinic.
