Women Are Aborting Their Babies Based On Incorrect Prenatal Test Results

“If parents aren’t ready to have disabled children, they shouldn’t be having any at all, since anyone can become disabled at any time, and many disabled people weren’t actually born that way.”

  1. The people you want to force to give birth usually aren’t trying for children, so what’s your argument there?

  2. Even when the child is wanted, you have to accept that many parents DON’T want to raise a disabled child, especially when the disability alters their personality and ability to function. When I say there are difficulties, it’s more than just the ability to afford. It’s the emotional grief and the mental challenge of watching your child struggle, of wanting a child that can learn to be self-reliant. It’s not the same, no matter how badly you want it to be.
