I am pretty sure you won't want society to have the ability 'put you down' like a dog..... O wait, under Obamacare they will. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1490522 sounds good to me honestly i'm 47 now, and i see late 60 early 70 year olds, tottering around, hobbling around, miserable looks on their wrinkled old faces, and i think, 'no thank you' |

I know many, many of these families-- with disabilities of all kinds, and I can tell you that none of them would ever choose or support this. As hard as it is, and it can be fucking hard. There is much more to these kids than what you see on the surface, no matter how disabled they are. God works outside of the disability- He works on the family and sharpens them, and uses others to hopefully bless them. Bless them every time you see them out, or better yet volunteer with them, and your heart will grow like the Grinch's. Last Edited by snark on 10/10/2012 06:07 PM T For Texas, T For Tennessee! The virtue of courage is a prerequisite for the practice of all other virtues, because otherwise one is virtuous only when virtue has no cost. There are times when something needs to be done, and yet we know that if we step up and do this needful thing, we will pay a heavy personal price. -C.S. Lewis |

Cant we do the same for humans? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 25033786 Sure we can. That's what eugenics is all about. So, what makes you worthy of being allowed to live? And who do you believe has the power to determine that? I was refering to the breeding, no killing mentioned. You are born you live. If you are retarded and have 'bad genes' (skitzo, downs, anything that could be considered hereditary) you shouldnt be alowed to continue to populate the world with your bad genes and should be sterialized at birth. This is just forced selective breeding on a wide scale, no murder. And the one to decide your reproductive fate should be your genes, they dont lie. |

If you are miserable and want to kill yourself or the child, there has to be a way set in place that you can put the child into someone else' care. Only idealists will say that everyone who has a special needs child will grow and learn and happy lalalala. If that is the case, then great, but there are those who would rather kill the child, so let someone who can deal with it, deal with it. |
