Anonymous Coward User ID: 67989942 Canada 02/16/2015 01:19 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | They are aborted because some people in this world are sick in the soul... 99% of people with Down syndrome say they are happy: so why are most Down’s babies aborted? October 12, 2011 (thePublicDisourse.com) - October is National Down Syndrome Awareness Month. Fittingly, the American Journal of Medical Genetics recently published groundbreaking research that challenges conventional wisdom about raising a child with Down syndrome (DS). Responding to these studies, noted bioethicist Art Caplan predicted that, nevertheless, they will not “make a bit of difference to parents deciding to end pregnancies once [DS] is discovered in the fetus.” Actual experience contradicts Caplan’s pessimism. The new research reports the findings of three surveys in which thousands of parents and hundreds of siblings and individuals with DS themselves, were questioned about what it is like to be affected in one way or another by DS. Ninety-nine percent of parents said they loved their child with DS and 97 percent were proud of them; only 4 percent regretted having their child. While 4 percent of siblings would “trade their sibling” with DS, 96 percent indicated that they had affection toward their sibling with DS, with 94 percent of older siblings expressing feelings of pride. Finally, although 4 percent of individuals with DS expressed sadness about their lives, 99 percent said they were happy with their lives and 97 percent liked who they are.

It would be immoral to bring it into the world if you have the choice." Quoting: jimboman I'm afraid so. If it's a fetus lacking the capacity for thought, reason, the ability to feel pain or understand that it exists at all, terminating the pregnancy hurts no one. Once it becomes a sentient human being capable of thought, feeling, emotion, etc., it will always understand then the real torture begins. Don't give me the crap about how wonderful and happy children with Down's that are already born are - that is irrelevant. No one is suggesting that you kill a sentient child or take back a life already aware of its existence - just that to prevent pain is better than allowing it to happen with full awareness that it is going to and doing nothing. We are talking about probabilities. Not killing sentient humans. Dawkins is correct. We don't mourn the 50% of all fertilized eggs that end in miscarriage naturally, there's no need to consider an embryo or fetus the equal of a born, sentient human. SHE'S RIGHT YOU KNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (WHY DON"T WE HAVE A PHOTO FOR WOMEN WITH THIS SAYING TO USE INSTEAD OF BILL COSBY??!!) |

It would be immoral to bring it into the world if you have the choice." Quoting: jimboman What a total psychopath. I have to agree with dawkins. I don't think i can "care" for an unborn child that does not even have a the capacity for a thought. I think it would be far more cruel to let it live in this world. This "person" would have so many issues. Now if you ask me, who are you to decide if it will have a happy life or a sad one? I say, the fetus is not self aware until a brain has developed and it has developed at least 1 of the "5" senses. So aborting before that happens should is no more evil or "psychotic" then pulling a mutated plant from your garden. This is all me assuming women are told sometime during pregnancy that their baby will have Down Syndrome. |
