As I said in an earlier post, I don't believe his response was an appropriate one to an 11 yr old, and by its very nature it did undermine the child's relationship with her mother. On an emotional level I can appreciate you feeling differently, but I just think it was the wrong way to handle the situation.

While I think we've reached an "agree to disagree" point about this, there is one more thing that I'd like to add for your consideration:

When I was 11, my church showed graphic slides of aborted babies during mass. Those images were indelibly imprinted on my young, impressionable mind, and I've always been thankful for that. My mother was pro-life, so that's never been an issue between us, but even if it had been, I think that it was far more important for me to know the truth than potentially disagree with my mother.

Many young girls don't know the truth about abortion, and end up aborting their babies....only to wake up to the truth years later. Then they are tortured by what they've done for the rest of their lives. This particular child may have very well been spared that fate....thanks to her uncle.
