Michael’s parents died when he was about ten years old. He then served as an apprentice with a local merchant.

OK, it's shocking, even if you know what abortion is and what a suction curette does. But it makes its point very well, and without actual pictures of the results. Perhaps it could serve as a discussion starter.

http://liveaction.org/lilarose Here's a thought invite Lila Rose to come talk to your students, she's a fantastic speaker, Catholic and a young lady who started being pro-life at the age of 9 and has been on fire for the pro-life movement ever since!

Janet Smiths Contraception Why Not CD and DVD would be great for the students to watch and discuss.
