If a doctor told you your unborn child has a 99% chance of severe downs syndrome, to the point where they would need constant care until the day they die. Do you think it's ethical to abort? (lemmy.world)

So you're asking should all prior with special needs be terminated so they don't suffer? Should all poor people?

Kinda slippery slope there tbh...

I think that anyone who isn't ready to be a parent should have that option not to. Special needs or not. Forced birth and zero support after is terrible.
