The Family Doctor Speaks: The Truth about Life by Dr. James Dobson

January 17-18, 2024
Guests: Dr. Robert and Carlotta Jackson

Part 1
While Dr. Robert Jackson, Jr., was a second-year medical resident, he was asked to administer a drug to induce premature labor on a woman who was carrying a special needs baby in order to abort the pregnancy. He refused, but another doctor did so, prompting the woman to deliver a 22-week-old infant. On today's edition of Family Talk, Dr. Jackson recounts that the patient's little baby, born alive, was wrapped in a cold, wet towel, and abandoned to die in a metal basin. Since that horrific moment, Dr. Jackson has been a passionate and staunch defender of pre-born children.

Part 2
Today, some pro-life advocates believe that abortion is acceptable if the woman has been victimized by rape or incest. On today's edition of Family Talk, Dr. Robert Jackson, Jr., author of The Family Doctor Speaks: The Truth About Life, declares that it is morally wrong to kill an unborn child for a misdeed or even a tragic event that has occurred in the mother’s life. All unborn children are created in the image of God! Learn more as we are joined by Dr. Jackson's wife, Carlotta, as she shares how their two special needs children teach them how to be more like Christ.
