Generations Lost
It is nearly impossible to grasp the estimated 64 million preborn human lives abortion has ended in America since 1973. Each generation has its own death toll and each life lost is a tragedy.
Abortion was decriminalized nationwide following the infamous Roe vs. Wade Supreme Court decision on January 22, 1973. Comparing birth data with abortion data during specific generational ranges, Live Action News has estimated the following:
Generation X – 8.7 million lives lost – Abortion snuffed out nearly one quarter (24.88%) of this generation. For every three (3.02) babies born from 1973-1980, one baby was aborted.
Millenials – 24.5 million lives lost – Abortion killed nearly one third (28.31%) of this generation. For every 2.5 babies born, one baby was aborted.
Generation Z – 16.3 million lives lost -Abortion snuffed out nearly one third (28.81%) of this generation. For every 2.5 babies born, one baby as aborted.
Generation Alpha – 14.4 million lives lost -Abortion destroyed nearly one fifth (20%) of this generation. For nearly every four (3.97) babies born, one baby was aborted.
Generation Beta – One million lives lost so far – So far, abortion has killed one fifth (22%) of this generation. For nearly every 3.5 babies born, one baby is aborted.
It is important to note that these annual estimates are almost certainly an undercount, as they include only those abortions obtained within the formal US health care system : at brick and mortar health facilities, such as clinics or doctor’s offices, and via telehealth and virtual providers.
The death toll through abortion per decade is as follows:
1973 to 1979 – nearly 7.2 million
1980 to 1989 – nearly 16 million
1990 to 1999 – nearly 14.3 million
2000 to 2009 – 12.4 million
2010 to 2019 – 9.5 million
2020 to 2024 – (last reported number) nearly 5 million
Today, every day in America, nearly 3000 innocent preborn children are violently dismembered or poisoned by abortion. Abortion doesn’t just impact the preborn victims, their mothers, fathers and their families but also society as a whole. We are all less because of it.
