About the Comic
13,000 infants are born to teen parents each year in Canada, and 700,000 in the United States.
Research shows that these parents are vulnerable to abortion because the challenges of adolescent pregnancy and parenting are often deployed by abortionists to push teens towards abortion.
LifeCanada and Voyage Comics have developed a high-quality 40-page comic book that addresses the consequences of teen pregnancy from the perspective of two regular teens who date in high school and become pregnant. Each chapter focuses on a different choice and how it impacts their lives and the life of the unborn child.

I really want to point to the fact that in this novel it shares that the child is alive and abortion is murder.
I think it is important for young Christains everywhere to read this and understand the true geift that God has givin us and how it is beutiful and shouldn't be missused.
I thought that the situation of the young couple was very relatable for an audience of 7th graders through high school. Taking the storyline in 3 different directions for the reader was thought-provoking, as well as very realistic in the outcomes. My 8th grade grandson has a morality class in his Catholic school, and I want to bring this resource to his teachers. Thank you for dealing with a very real situation for many teens in such an engaging manner.
Life Choices: The Gift
I read this book to my 10 and 12 year olds before bedtime, and they were tranfixed. We had an hour long conversation about all the themes in the book--they asked what an STD was, the purple thing (condom) the girl showed the guy, the sadness of abortion. Honestly, this little book did a lot of heavy lifting so I could have a chance to talk to my kids. My 14 year old read it in private and she said "it was good." My 16 year old son read it, and didn't comment much on it, because we have talked about these issues before---but I like to revisit these topics about once ayear with my kids so things sink in. So it was a very good tool for parenting with open communication about these topics. Well done!!!
What I really like about The Gift is that you are able to concentrate on the issue of the baby's life since all the other characters are good. The boy and girl (Josh and Casey) are both good people who want the best for each other, and their parents are good people. You are able to see that even when everyone has good intentions, abortion is never the answer.
It definitely feels on the nose and like it's giving information, but how else are you going to give information? It's still all part of the story, which is presented in a beautiful format. It at least gets subject of teen pregnancy and babies' lives out there into exposure. It probably wouldn't do the whole job on its own, but accompanied by trusted, charitable guidance, I bet this book could get a lot of teens thinking more deeply about their choices. It's great to at least get the subject out of the shadows. Definitely read it for yourself and see what you think!
