Why I Decided to Talk About My Abortion With My Kids
[[link removed]]
In the wake of the leaked draft of a Supreme Court decision that would overturn
the landmark Roe vs. Wade case, you’re probably thinking a lot about bodily
autonomy and how to explain all this to your kids. Molly Wadzeck Kraus has a
very timely piece today, working through how she plans to tell her kids about
her own abortion, years before they were born — and why.
She writes: “A year and a half ago, some natural questions emerged when I told
my kids I was pregnant and that they would have a little brother or sister soon.
We bought a book recommended by a friend,It's So Amazing!

by Robie H. Harris, which covers the entire gamut of puberty, sex, sexuality,
pregnancy, and the many ways in which families are made. When we sat down to
look through it together, my kids were fascinated. But the one brief page on
abortion sparked something in me. Had I dropped the ball on including it in our
age-appropriate, ongoing conversations?”
She spoke to experts to hash out the best way to have the conversation — which
she’s definitely going to do, because it’s absolutely vital.
