Faith in Kids Talking to Children About... Abortion with Guest Dawn McAvoy
This is the second episode in our Faith in Parents series on talking through the hardest topics – the conversations we’re often told to avoid. In this episode, Ed and Amy are joined by Dawn McAvoy (Both Lives) to talk about the value of life, pregnancy and abortion.
Their conversation covers questions such as:
•How can we talk about the value of life with our youngest children?
•How do we talk to our children about abortion appropriately and carefully?
•How do we do it in a way that reflects the goodness, compassion, and hope of the Christian story?
This episode helps parents see that talking about abortion doesn’t begin with arguments or politics, but with wonder relationship and community. It will encourage parents that we have a story that is better and more hopeful than the stories our children will hear elsewhere.
Dawn McAvoy leads Both Lives, a UK wide initiative of the Evangelical Alliance. Both Lives advocates for both lives; every woman and every unborn in pregnancy. Both Lives champions laws that protect, services that enable and a culture that affirms women and children pre and post birth.
