Scientology kills the unborn & abuses children
Some background...
Hana Eltringham Whitfield concerning the late 1960s and early 1970s: "
There were secretive flights to New York from the ship by Hubbard aides and others for abortions either condoned or ordered by Hubbard... Women who became pregnant did not want to be sent off the ship so they chose, in some cases, to have the abortions and, in some cases, Hubbard ordered them to have abortions".
Interviewer: "
So the issue of forced abortions is not new?..."
Hana: "
No, it's not new. It existed on board the Royal Scotman."
This is from 1:48 - 3:06, in part four of a six part interview with Hana Eltringham Whitfield.
In this segment, Hana also discusses the death of Susan Meister and the cover up by Hubbard. Also discussed are the scandalous conditions in the children's nursery at the Fort Harrison (Flag Land Base) in 1975, 1976, etc.

From the 1952 Philadelphia Doctorate Course:
"We mustn't mention this because, God help us, there goes the moral code. Penicillin took out the disease level and now... [a person] can take a couple of beams of energy.... and terminate a pregnancy. Nothing wild or forceful or upsetting or anything like that. Just make sure the tube opens. It's very simple. There are muscles and so forth that contract and expand at a certain period every month, and that sort of thing."
Gleefully, Hubbard continued:
"
Pregnancies that have been as much as three months advanced have been terminated that way... Isn't this fascinating? So you've got something like birth control sitting right there in theta clearing... It's just deadly. One, two, three!"
1952, 'PDC' lecture. Hubbard explains how wonderful it is that OTs can now induce abortions:

And, from a precept from 'The Way to Happiness' "moral code" booklet, written, in 1980, as PR cover while Hubbard was in hiding after the exposure of his amoral, immoral, and criminal teachings and activities:
On the topic of sex, in 'TWTH', one precept advises against promiscuity, explaining that,
"A 'feeling of guilt' is no where near as sharp as ground glass in the soup."
Note that "
feeling of guilt" is in quotes.

As early as 1951, Hubbard had spoken dismissively of "conscience." In the lecture, 'Cause on All Dynamics', he said:
"What is conscience? It is simply a negating against your own, not somebody else's, causes. If there is such a thing as conscience, it would be that...
"
Now, you want to know anytime in your life when you have felt guilty... you go back earlier and find the postulate that you are guilty of disobeying [and erase the postulate]."

And on the family:
"
The GE [Genetic Entity]
is a family man. The GE is lost without the family. It's very strange but Homo Sap is a family unit. The GE is built on that basis...
"
And your thetan, by the way, can much more easily go into a group. Families are not good groups."
From 10 December 1952, PDC lecture series.

From Hubbard's gleeful affirming of the ease of abortions, to his disdain of "Homo Saps" and their preoccupation with families, to the inferiority of the family unit as a group, to his 'Pain and Sex' HCOB, the seeds of what would happen, later, were planted by Scientology's founder long before.
Apparently, the Sea Org swung from infant&child neglect and abuse to a prohibition on having babies. The abuse of children in the Sea Org began with Hubbard ordering stern punishment and confinement of children who were regarded as misbehaving on the "Flagship," on which he was the "Commodore," then there was his encouragement that children be inducted into the Sea Org as young as 12, or younger, including as his personal servants.
Child care at Sea Org facilities in the 1970s, by most accounts, was certainly not good, and in 1974, Hubbard even came up with the Children's RPF. As early as 1961 there was a Children's Security Check for ages 6 - 12. Apparently, after 12, the child - an "ancient thetan in a little body" - would be eligible for an adult Security Check.

L. Ron Hubbard established the Children's RPF in 1976:

SECURITY CHECK CHILDREN
HCO WW Security Form 8
The following is a processing check for use on children.
Be sure the child can understand the question. Rephrase it so he or she
can understand it. The first question is the most potent.

Ages 6 -- 12

It may be that a decision will someday be made to encourage Sea Org members to have children.
Imagine a Sea Org with lots and lots of little Sea Org Cadets and Sea Org women encouraged to have as many children as possible.
Meanwhile, non-Sea Org "public" Scientologists seem to have children, and these children are being raised as Scientologists, with their parents encouraged to send them into the Sea Org.
And, as usual, Scientology surrounds itself with a protective "defense" perimeter, from giant crosses on its "Churches," to photographs of happy, wholesome, families, and there's plenty of Hubbardian PR verbiage to accompany it.
