Kaly Rossi was a fifteen-year-old teenager living a normal life in 1970s Cheyenne, Wyoming, when she began dating her first boyfriend, Eric. Despite the red flags in their relationship, Kaly and Eric were inseparable, liked the same music, had the same couple friends, and were madly in love—until the day Kaly woke up with morning sickness.
In a candid retelling of her journey through regret, sorrow, and grief, Kaly details her life after facing an unexpected pregnancy as a naïve teenager unable to reveal her secret to her parents. As she discloses how she ultimately made the decision to terminate the pregnancy and travel to Colorado for an abortion, Kaly shares insight into her subsequent emotions as she was forced to harbor a dark secret while struggling to move on with her life. While revealing how she eventually traveled down a road to salvation fueled by her rekindled faith in Jesus Christ, Kaly offers hope to others that there is always comfort, healing, and forgiveness to be found in His arms.
Confession: I Want My Child Back is the true story of a teenager’s path forward after a mistake and a dark secret led her back to God and a new beginning.
