[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a medically disabled child. Its not a condition you can test for. have no judgements on those that would terminate. This life isn't for everyone. [/quote]

It’s one thing to withhold judgement for someone who chooses to abort a child who will need a level of parenting and medical support that a particular family can’t handle.  It’s another to imply what a shame it is that someone did not abort their currently existing child.  [/quote]

OP here.  Exactly.  And for the record, I am pro-choice.  I made a choice to have this child, and that choice is not for everyone.  It was not an easy choice for us, but I do not regret it.  What is frustrating is having to defend my choice, and defend my child's right to be here.[/quote]

I am pro-choice, too, and entirely appreciative and supportive of your choice. I mean, not that you need that, but just for the record.

The point is to make the choice right for you and your situation. You did.[/quote]

OP here.  Thanks.  I appreciate that.[/quote]
