Children should never be exposed to the brutality that is abortion (Lord willing it will become an act no one has to confront). But, children are our future and will hopefully be the generation that destroys abortion completely and forever. As such they deserve an ingrained respect for life and all the beauty that comes with that, from the earliest opportunity.
While the world loves to deny it, parents are their children's first and most influential role models and they carry the great burden of starting their children on the path of righteousness. Parents, the Lord has powerful plans for your children and He has gifted you with a hand in those plans, so please, understand the importance of guiding your children in the ministries that the Lord loves, as He does the Pro-Life movement. There will never be another movement quite like it and, if made dear to them, it will be a ministry your children continue and perhaps finish one day.
So train up your children with the respect for life that is so sorely lacking in today's world. Simple extensions of your own Pro-Life beliefs and acts of devotion (family prayer for an end to abortion, buying your children Pro-Life books/toys, reminding children that they are purposely created by a loving God) go a long way in building a strong foundation for the individual Pro-Life beliefs that your children will cling to one day.
That foundation must be built diligently. It doesn't need to start huge but it has to start somewhere.
