Readers' Blog: Retention of Eighth a no-brainer

Last Sunday I attended the Pro Life National Conference in the RDS in Dublin. There were excellent presentations from all speakers. However, when I went home I was feeling slightly deflated and questioning myself.

Former president of UCD Students’ Union Katie Ascough gave a very personal account of how her pro-life views began to be formulated. When she was 15 years old her mother had a miscarriage and she described holding the 13-week-old foetus. She could clearly see the hands and feet on the tiny little baby.
