Teachers threaten disqualification, but girl chooses to speak against
abortion
By Chelsea Schilling
Despite facing threats of disqualification, a 12-year-old girl took
first place in a speech contest when she eloquently argued for the
rights of unborn children – after an offended judge quit.
“What if I told you that right now, someone was choosing if you were
going to live or die?” the seventh-grader begins in a video recording
of her speech on YouTube. “What if I told you that this choice wasn't
based on what you could or couldn't do, what you'd done in the past or
what you would do in the future? And what if I told you, you could do
nothing about it?”
The girl, a student at a Toronto school identified only as “Lia,”
continued:
“Fellow students and teachers, thousands of children are right now in
that very situation. Someone is choosing without even knowing them
whether they are going to live or die.
“That someone is their mother. And that choice is abortion.”
