Plastic Foetuses given to children at A&P show

Parents is are expressing concern about their children being given plastic foetuses while visiting the Canterbury A&P Show.

One parent said her her 11 year old son arrived home on Thursday with a model foetus after a school outing.

“I was shown it at 6 o’clock at night when I got home from work,” said Amber  Murdoch said.

“It led to me having a really uncomfortable conversation when I had to explain to him he wasn’t actually going to be allowed to play with this thing, and having to explain what abortion was all about.”

Anti-abortion groups teamed up to exhibit at the the Canterbury A&P Show on a Voice for Life and ProLife stall.

Voice for Life spokesman Joseph Houghton said stall volunteers had behaved appropriately, but their use of the plastic foetuses would be reviewed.
