Question About Paedo-Communion

[JBaldwin]

A spoke with a friend today whose family has been visiting our PCA church but are uncomfortable with our church's position on paedo-communion. Our position is that children of covenant families should be examined by the elders before taking communion.

I have heard very little of the paedo communion viewpoint, and my friend is the first I've met who holds to this view. Can anyone briefly explain it nd give a few scripture reasons for it? Or give me some scriptural reason why not?

She kept going to I Corinthians 11.

This is most helpful. I did a search, but didn't find this as quickly as you did.
