Skribentens beskrivelse af Indias missing girlsIn the article “India’s Missing Girls”, written by Raekha Prasad and Randeep Ramesh we hear about the illegal gender-based abortions, being carried out by clinics in India. Women are generally outnumbered in India, but orphanages are one of the only places where males are outnumbered. The males that are living at the orphanage are either disabled or born by a single mother that can’t take care of the child. For every boy living at the orphanage, there are four girls. But the girls left at the orphanage are not always from poor families. Sometimes the babies are even left with diapers, clothes and milk formula. The desire, for having a boy instead of a girl, are so big in todays India, that women will have an illegal abortion no matter what it takes. Some women will even have an abortion, even though the fetus is older than the 20 weeks that are allowed in India. |
