[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you can feel your baby move, have heard the heartbeat, and interact with it- but you still think it's a good idea to rip it apart by it's limbs, throw it on a table, and piece it back together; as opposed to letting things occur naturally...then there is something wrong with you.

Well, it kind of depends what you mean with "letting things occur naturally" if that means giving birth to a T18 child that will die within a few days after giving birth. Unlike some of the anti-abortion posters I will not go into too much graphic detail, but T18 is a very, very tragic syndrome.

It is not about "something is wrong with you". It is about making choices a parent has to make: what is in the best interest of the unborn child.

From reading your response, you would make another decision -- that is your right. But don't make it sound like it's an easy choice.[/quote]

You cannot say that the child with T18 WILL die.

And even if passing is imminent, I guess [b]you are right. The mother has to make the choice if it's more humane and compassionate to rip the child apart, or to let them go naturally[/b].

THIS is why these posts should be removed and this is why I'm leaving this thread. Trying to shame or hurt women by making a decision YOU are comfortable with is a horrible thing to do. Your evil preaching is disgusting to me and I don't want to be a part of this anymore. This should be a safe place for women to voice their opinions and ask for resources and compassion, not to be so disgustingly judged by someone like you.[/quote]

Again, this is treating this subject with kid gloves.  [b]In no other thread here, in equally sensitive areas such as divorce, SN children, medical issues, other, do we evicerate people with diff points of view[/b].  Don't limit information on any topic. That's not the DCUM way.  If you don't like it, fine, but you don't have to flounce out of here with a hair flip.  Best of luck to you.  [/quote]

And yet this is exactly what you are doing. And no, SN, divorce, etc, none of these subjects are as sensitive and painful as losing a baby. And yes, leaving this thread is the best to be done. If the "DCUM way" is this psychologically abusive, than I'm definitely better off without it.[/quote]
