[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just explained it to my DD in a straight forward way. "When a female gets pregnant she has three options: she can have what will turn into a baby and keep it, have what will turn into a baby and give it up for adoption or have an abortion which is a medical procedure where they take out the cells that are called a fetus, before they turn into a baby. Then the woman isn't pregnant anymore and a baby isn't born. Some people think that's wrong, but I think they're wrong. Nobody should have a baby if they're not prepared to." [/quote]

Did your daughter want to know more information about what happens [b]to the cells that are called a fetus? [/b]Because I could easily see a kid that's curious enough to ask about abortion being curious about what's the difference between the cells and the baby and then wanting to know where the cells go. And then probably wanting to know what the cells look like before they turn into a baby, and then wanting to know [/i]when[i] the cells go from being cells to turning into a baby etc. There would be a lot of questions I'd think...[/quote]

Not that PP, but by 8 they should have seen plants germinate.  That whole lima bean in a cup with a wet paper towel thing.  Give that as an analogy.[/quote]
