Helping Children Navigate Our Brave New World

SAN DIEGO, CA, October 23, 2018 /Catholic Answers—A major new book from Catholic Answers Press promises to help parents address the challenging sexual subjects that modern society forces on kids.

Made This Way: How To Prepare Kids To Face Today’s Tough Moral Issues by Leila Miller and Trent Horn is the first-ever book to help concerned parents and educators equip children with a natural law understanding of morality that’s based on the inherent design of our human nature.

It doesn’t come a minute too soon. “The culture throws every kind of deviancy right in our children’s faces,” says Todd Aglialoro, Catholic Answers director of publishing. “We can’t shelter them all the time—the only answer is to give them the wisdom and understanding they need to face it.”

Even so, the authors were careful “to protect the natural innocence of small children,” says Miller, author of the acclaimed Primal Loss. What’s appropriate for teens may not be for small children, so for each subject—such as divorce, abortion, premarital sex, or transgenderism—Made This Way divides its counsels into “Big Kids” and “Little Kids” chapters.

No matter what their age, adds Miller (a mother of eight), the natural-design approach “just makes logical sense to kids. And if something makes sense, they’ll stay with it.” The result is children who will be better able to resist the lies of our relativistic, hypersexualized culture, and thus more likely to grow into adults who keep their Christian faith.
