The founding act of the most celebrated life in modern feminism...was the death of her own child.
The movement that promised women freedom told them, from the very beginning, what the price of that freedom would be. It would be their children.

We were saddened to hear about the death of Fr. Michael Duesterhaus over the weekend. Fr. Duesterhaus was a guest for two popular episodes of HLI's podcast where he discussed annulments.
Please pray for the repose of his soul!
"Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May his soul and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace."

Have you ever wondered why the pro-life movement opposes surrogacy? The story of Baby Gabriel helps explain why.
Diagnosed before birth with a serious but treatable heart condition, Gabriel’s intended parents reportedly wanted his surrogate mother to abort him. She refused—and Gabriel was given the chance to live.
His story raises troubling questions about an industry where children can become the subject of contracts and expectations.
Surrogacy can involve the creation and destruction of embryos, the commercialization of women’s bodies, and arrangements that risk treating children as products to be accepted—or rejected.
A child is not a product. A woman is not a womb for rent. And no contract should determine whether a human life is worthy of protection.

"Baby Gabriel was the target of a conspiracy against his life...which has drawn international scrutiny of one of the darkest, and least-talked-about aspects of the surrogacy industry."

"Earlier this month, @FamStudies published a survey of 2,000 American men between the ages of 18 and 29. The results are a resounding affirmation of the problem I began to delineate in last week’s column, i.e. a crisis of masculinity that is pushing men into the orbit of toxic, pseudo-masculine figures like Andrew Tate..."

This little girl is not in the video. She wasn't even born. But she is moved to tears watching her mother and father get married. Why?
Marriage researcher and family therapist Pat Fagan once told me:
"When a child sees their mother loving their father they feel like their mother is loving them. When they see their father loving their mother they feel like their father is loving them. It is the only time in the human experience where you can be loved indirectly. No one's even looking at you or touching you or talking to you, but you feel loved."
That is not the case with a step parent, he said. The child may tolerate the romantic expression. But they do not experience that same circuitous love. More often they feel competition or jealousy.
If every child could order their own world, this is what they would say:
"I want my mom and dad to love me and I want my mom and dad to love each other."
Sometimes that's not possible. Woe to a culture that intentionally denies that to children in the name of adult freedom.
A trained teacher can protect an entire generation.
After receiving pro-life and chastity formation through HLI Rwanda, Sister Adeline knew she had a responsibility to protect the students entrusted to her care.
As the head of a school, Sister Adeline has created a strong pro-life club and is committed to ensuring her students receive a message of truth about human dignity, chastity, and the value of every life.
When anti-life groups attempted to bring contraceptive programs into her school, Sister Adeline stood firm. Because she had received the training and formation she needed, she was prepared to defend her students from messages that undermine the dignity of human life.
This is why teacher training matters.
