I agree with other posters that even if the 1% is true, it must be put in perspective. Not only is there a 4-5% infant mortality rate, but the percentage of children under 5 in Guatemala who are chronically malnourished is 49% (according to the World Bank). That means half the young children in Guatemala are going hungry every single day.
Under these circumstances, why is it so hard to believe that 1% of mothers would choose to place their children?
