It makes zero sense to me that you have an add for abortion while also saying that every baby deserves the best of care. Make it make sense. Unsubscribing.
Although the show is interesting and well done the host promotes hypocrisy here. I’m not sure how this show advocates for children when she advertises abortion clinics. Very disappointing!
As a social worker who has intervened on behalf of medically abused children, I appreciate the attention this podcast brings to MBP. I do encourage the host to engage in more self awareness and to work to avoid “laughing” at perpetrators. It is not funny and it undermines your message.

That hospital and all involved in tearing that family apart have the death of Mayas mother on their hands aswell as the courts. And hope the don’t sleep well at night. I could go on but I won’t stop. I see why people fear taking their kids to hospital. Everyone should have believed her. And any show that says they are wanting to ... more
