In fact research shows that the mother-child bond is deeper, more primeval and important in the life of the child than we had ever imagined. Dr Katie Hind's astonishing research results show that mothers lactation responds dynamically to her child, responding to age, sex, infections on salivary signals with different composition and ingredients, an evolved 300 million year old chemical conversation. That's before we get into the sugars purposefully sent not to the baby's gut but to the microflora there. The notion that mothers are some kind of Axotl Tank, a biological irrelevance is not just pagan & barbaric but stupidly, irrationally unscientific.
Children ought not to be the subject of a vast, badly designed social experiment with nothing but bad outcomes likely to gratify the whims of adults.
I am so grateful for Katy Faust and all those from Them Before Us who are shining a light on how today’s culture, which prioritizes selfish adult desires, is causing suffering and sometimes irreparable harm to children. Two men, or by the same token, two women, raising a child or children is not in the best interests of the child. We need to say it loud and clear and keep pounding it into society.
Thank you so much for this. Motherhood, in many ways, has been reduced to a one-time medical event. After birth, women are encouraged to get back to 'real life' as soon as possible, while eternal truths, personal testimony and a growing body of scientific evidence is overlooked. We just 'diagnose' and medicate the kids instead.
Beautiful! In celebration of ‘the women who hold the world together’ we share something of the pivotal contributions made by our Founding Mothers and ahead of Sunday's Holiday, we share the breathgiving account of Dolly Madison’s actions to preserve the Declaration of Independence (which includes a solemn rebuke of slavery) — As transcribed by her grand niece, Lucia Cutts, the famous Woman’s Rights advocate who organized “the first ever convention” on the topic (1848).
We are writing about Abigail Adams and the 'First Draft' of our 1776 Declaration, which formed the United States of America into our Republic, which includes our unchangeable and unlimited Charter of enforceable Natural Rights that codified Coequality as the “Equal and Independent Station” we planning to fight for this November.
Excellent article and thanks! Food for thought...I know why you describe it as such but using the terms "loving" for numerous dads ("No number of loving men can replace that.") and "good" for 2 dads ("It didn’t go away because the men in her life were good.") is an oxymoron and inconsistent with the Truth of Scripture. They may have treated her "nicely" and cared for her but they were neither loving nor good according to God's Word. I share this humbly as I love the work you're doing and am part of the Greater Than and Them Before Us gang! However, we must be careful to use, or not use, words properly, aligning with God's Truth or the other side continues to capitalize on hijacking words to draw people in and deceive them...think reproductive healthcare, gender affirming care, etc. Thanks again for all you do and God bless in the Love & Lordship of Christ!
While I appreciate the interview you then said "Do you agree that every child deserves the mother and father they came from? Here’s how you can get involved:"
Such black and white statements arent helpful to anyone. Sometimes children are removed from parents for good reasons. For instance the children of pedophiles who are being sexually abused dont deserve to be forced to have contact with the abuser. Life is nuanced.
Sandy I understand where you are coming from and agree that there are circumstances that merit removing a child from their biological parents. I don't think anyone would disagree with that. That being said removing children from their biological parents requires a very good justification and the desires of adults does not meet that criteria. We can and should advocate for children to be with their biological parents in the vast majority of cases and advocate against any system that would remove them from their biological parents by design. The edge cases of genuine abuse do not justify the harms that IVF, surrogacy, and other reproductive technologies inflict on children by stealing one or more of their biological parents away from them.

Please tell us what you think!
Wow! What an important message and such a sad story on the video. She shared with so much honesty and respect. Very well done.
