From the book description:

In Made This Way: How to Prepare Kids to Face Today’s Tough Moral Issues, Leila Miller and Trent Horn give parents (guardians and teachers, too!) crucial tools and techniques to form children with the understanding they need—appropriate to their age and maturity level—to meet the world’s challenges.

Their secret lies in an approach that begins not with the Bible or Church teaching but with the natural law. In kid-friendly ways, Miller (Primal Loss) and Horn (Persuasive Pro-Life) help you communicate how the right way to live is rooted in the way we’re made. God’s design for human nature is a blueprint or owner’s manual for moral living that any child can grasp through reason and apply to modern controversies over sex, marriage, life… and the quest for human fulfillment.

Topics covered include:

•Sex Outside of Marriage

•Same-Sex Marriage

•Divorce

•Contraception

•Abortion

•Reproductive Technologies

•Modesty

•Pornography

•Transgenderism

•Homosexuality

Silence can no longer be an option. If we’re not teaching our children how to understand tough moral issues, then the world will.
