Scholar Warns U.N. Delegates about Sex-Selection Abortions Against Baby Girls
A top scholar and former American diplomat this week warned delegates to the U.N. that prenatal sex-selection abortions are on the rise.
Dr. Nicholas Eberstadt of the American Enterprise Institute, said a global war is being conducted against baby girls, many of whom are aborted because the parents prefer a son.
According to Eberstadt, the natural birth rate for boys and girls is 105 to 100. meaning that five more males will come into the world than females.
With increased sex-selection abortion, the scholar said the gap has widened to 115 to 100.
