Sick abortion activists have published a children’s book to promote abortion to five to eight-year olds.
The picture book titled ‘Abortion is Everything’ is illustrated with bright, colourful drawings, and is advertised as ‘framing’ abortion “as the actualization of a uniquely human superpower”.
The book is written by Rachel Kessler alongside activist Amelia Bonow, whose group ‘Shout Your Abortion’ (SYA) aims to “arm existing activists, create new ones, and foster collective participation in abortion access all over the country”.
The book is marketed as speaking “directly to five to eight-year-olds about what abortion is, how it might feel, and why people have abortions”.
Posting about the book’s release, SYA claim: “Parents, caregivers, and educators who work with children have long been searching for a tool to talk with kids about abortion”.
They say the book promotes abortion as “a tool that allows human beings to shape our destinies” and to “make choices that lead us towards the life we envision”.
Instead of using the word ‘woman’ or ‘mother’, it talks about “human beings” who have “an organ called a uterus”, and in its illustrations, it compares having an abortion to letting go of a balloon.
One mother commented on the SYA post promoting the book: “Love it. I‘ve been speaking to my kids about abortion since they were small and it is so empowering to hear a child say: ‘You don‘t have to be pregnant if you don’t want to be.’”
The book received substantial backlash on social media, with one commenter saying: “Why would you even want to talk to kids about this????”
Another criticised it for “trying to sanitize abortion”, stating: “But abortion isn’t everything. It ends everything — a heartbeat, a future, a God-ordained life. This is one of the clearest pictures of a culture of death I’ve seen. Parents must speak truth early so children know life is sacred from the moment of conception.”
