We fail women
Who’ve been raped When we allow the rapist Parental rights. We fail children Born of rape To be raised by the man Who hurt their mother. We fail our country When we create policies Giving privileges to the rapist And punish the victim. Surviving rape and childbirth Only to be victimized again By the government. We fail her ….and the child. https://www.cnn.com/2016/11/17/health/parental-rights-rapists-explainer/index.html
