End of Innocence: A six year old defines abortion

"Abortion and divorce are really bad," the six year old said to his older sister. They were role playing a radio interview in the back seat of the car. He continued, "A bad guy will break into a house and make a mommy drink poison. Then the poison kills the baby inside her." The show's host, an 8 yr. old girl, responded, "No. It's only if the mom wants it to happen." The bane of any radio station, utter silence, filled the imaginary air waves. A heavy grief too deep for tears filled the soul of their only listener, a mom, who wanted to put the lid back on Pandora's box.
