Society — especially in the digital age — can be a hurtful place. Today we’re unpacking one of the most damaging questions we’ve received to shine some light on the truth of having children. The question: Why would you bring kids into this world when you knew they might have dwarfism? Welcome back to Raising Heights with Zach and Tori Roloff. In this episode, we talk about the reality of having kids in today’s world of choices and medical advancement and why you shouldn’t let society dictate whether you choose to grow your family.
