[quote=Anonymous]My 6year old is aware of the abortion debate. I've iold him that when its when a woman decides not to go through with a pregnancy, or not to carry a pregnancy to term. He doesn't need to know the details about how it's done, but he knows that I'm pro-choice, that there are infinite reasons why a woman would not carry a pregnancy to term, and that it's a hot political issue right now. How much of all that does he understand? No idea. I've kept it casual, I haven't gotten into the details (I also haven't mentioned it except for when he has asked me about it after hearing it on the radio or something) but he also knows it's why I disagree with certain people's political agendas. I don't believe in sheltering my kid - he knows a lot about current events because we discuss the news all the time. Some of those current events are even of interest to him - like Scott Kelly's year in space experiment. [/quote]
