‘Why Did You Choose to Have Me?’: Fox News Host Asks His Mom On-Air Why She Chose Life After Getting Pregnant as a Teen By  for Faith Wire

Fox News host Lawrence Jones asked his mother, Tameria Jones, a question this weekend he had reportedly never posed to her before: “Why did you choose to have me?”

Jones, host of “Lawrence Jones Cross Country,” asked his on-air question amid an intense national debate over abortion and the U.S. Supreme Court’s impending decision on the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization case. The Dobbsdecision could overturn nationalized abortion set in motion by the Roe v. Wade ruling in 1973.

“When you were 16, and you decided to give up basketball and all the fun, why did you choose to have me?” he asked.

“The more I prayed, the more I talked to God, and the more that I was honest about my struggle, I had that village that came along,” she said.

Jones concluded the touching segment by expressing his gratitude to his mother for having him.
