[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would terminate.  Life is hard.  Life is so much harder for anyone with a handicap.  It's not done abstract concept - it is what it is. All you fools in denial about how wonderful it is to life without limbs are nuts.  I'd like to see you go without using arms and legs for a day.  Unsure why that is a wonderful thing?  There is life and then there is life that is miserable.  I am wondering why you would set someone up for the latter just to make yourself feel good you have a life to take care of.[/quote]

You’re seeing it from the perspective of an able bodied person. If all you’ve ever known is no limbs then you work with that. If this child has loving, supportive parents they can have a marvelous, if different life. [/quote]

Okay well there’s no guarantee he or she will have loving, supporting parents. Not all parents are supportive and loving. Not all have resources to care for a child that needs so much support. Even those that are, things happen. My DH and I could die and the child would be a ward of the state and end up in some kind of state run facility. My DH could have an affair and leave the family without resources to care for a profoundly disabled child. I’m not bringing a child with no limbs into this imperfect world. [/quote]
