I'm probably going to regret posting this on the feminism board but it could be a good thing for some foetuses who might otherwise have been aborted but who actually could live a happy life. My sister is severely disabled and the fact that someone could abort a child with her condition makes me feel sick, it's basically saying her life isn't worth living
The answer to stopping babies being aborted due to disability is not banning abortion. It's having more support in place for disabled people and their families and it's having less disability discrimination.
My ds is disabled, there is very little support avaliable, everything is a fight and a battle. Everyday there is a new hurdle to jump. Many people abort disabled children because they feel they can't look after them, not because they don't want them or don't love them. Maybe if there was more support, more people would opt to keep their disabled babies.
No one, NO ONE, should be made to have a baby they don't want or can't look after. It doesn't matter what the reason it, whether it's because the baby is disabled or because the mother doesn't feel ready to have a child.
Who's going to look after all these unwanted babies in Poland. They'll probably end up in children's homes. Or maybe, they'll conveniently pass a law that means childless couples from other countries can "adopt" the babies, at a cost of course. Legal baby factory.
