If I was a mother in that position, this video would only cement my resolve to get an abortion asap. Who the fuck wants this for their progeny? "One day, your little boy could be a slack-jawed simpleton on a tractor." Nah. Get the forceps.
La gente indignada por el aborto del niño con síndrome de Down como si ellos fuesen los que van a tener que cuidar toda la vida a alguien con esa discapacidad.
Es muy fácil condenar las cosas cuando uno no es el que las va a vivir.
in the eastern part of Nigeria I grew up watching kids with Down syndrome getting called “mbe”. They get laughed at, isolated, mocked by their school peers.
Their parents are constantly overwhelmed. The child and parents have to suffer emotionally, financially, mentally. But you, especially you in Nigeria is telling me terminating a pregnancy when the fetus has been detected to have DS is evil, Mtchew.
You lot irritate me pls
It's impossible to have a serious discussion about abortion in America because these people literally think God is up there designing each baby by hand
Only on this app could you say something as reasonable as “I would terminate a pregnancy if I knew it was guaranteed that my child will be born severely disabled and dependent on me as their caretaker for life” and be met with “so you want all disabled people to be euthanised?”
We need to stop equating suffering with sanctity. Choosing to carry a fetus with a profound disability to term because "God gives special kids to special parents" is a coping mechanism. The reality is grueling, expensive, and isolating. Choosing out is a valid, logical decision.
Aqui el problema es que la majoria us penseu que tenir sindrome de Down es ser "tontito pero feliz" quan comporta una quantitat de problemes de salut greus molt mes enlla de la dificultat en l'aprenentatge.

I es incorrecte
My mom had a medical abortion before my brother or I were born. The fetus had developed with most of its organs on the outside of the body. At the time, it would have survived hours or maybe days in complete agony. This is why abortion should be accessible.
“Women talk more than men”
In a recent study it was found that when women talked 15% of the time (and men 85% of the time), men perceived it as equal participation. And when women talked 30% of the time, men perceived it as women dominating the discussion.
