A new children’s book, Abortion is Everything, is marketed specifically to five- to eight-year-olds—yes, kindergartners and early elementary-aged kids—with one message: abortion is a superpower.
The official book description proudly states:
“Abortion Is Everything speaks directly to five to eight-year-olds about what abortion is, how it might feel, and why people have abortions. With accessible, inclusive language, Abortion Is Everything frames abortion as the actualization of a uniquely human superpower: our capacity to imagine the future and make choices that lead us towards the life we envision. Abortion is a tool that allows human beings to shape our destinies, and which has shaped the entire world around us.”
Let’s pause there.
According to this worldview, “shaping our destinies” includes ending the life of a child in the womb. The book never acknowledges that while abortion may redirect one person’s plans, it violently kills another person’s future.
The underlying message is simple: My life is about me, and anything that stands in my way, even another human being, can be eliminated. This is not empowerment. This is a lie of Satan.
The book even attempts to differentiate humans from animals by claiming that because humans can “imagine their futures,” they therefore can, and should, kill a baby to achieve those imagined outcomes.
That is not a superpower. That is cruelty rephrased for young minds.

And despite the book’s attempt to celebrate abortion as freeing and healthy, the reality for countless women is the opposite. If abortion is so empowering, why do women who undergo abortions face an 81% higher risk of mental health problems compared to women who have not?
Abortion was further linked with a 61% increased risk of social phobia and increased the risk of suicide ideation by 59%. In the realm of substance misuse, the abortion-related increased risks for alcohol misuse, alcohol dependence, drug misuse, drug dependence, and any substance use disorder were 261%, 142%, 313%, 287%, and 280% respectively.
Those are not numbers associated with empowerment—they are numbers associated with pain, trauma, and unresolved grief.
Yet this book invites children to believe abortion is not only normal, but something to celebrate. It tries to turn the loss of a child into an inspiring moment of “self-actualization.”
Children deserve better than this. They deserve truth. They deserve to grow up in a society that teaches compassion, responsibility, and the inherent value of every human life—born and preborn.
And unborn babies deserve something even more basic: the right not to be killed in the womb.
Children should be taught that real strength is found in love, sacrifice, and protecting those who cannot protect themselves. We cannot allow our culture to rebrand violence as virtue, especially for the youngest and most impressionable among us.
This book may call abortion a “superpower.” But let’s be honest: the only power abortion holds is the power to end a life. And teaching a child to celebrate that isn’t empowerment, it’s a tragedy.
