If month after birth of perfect baby, if a child lose his hand or leg by ceiling fan dropping on his/her body, then mother will ask doctor to Euthanize baby. Baby is no more perfect.
Some guy - human “ethics” type guy (Princeton?) advocates letting people kill their children up to a certain age (several months). Lots of defects aren’t noticed until further along in development.
I was born with a club foot - the doctor didn’t know if I would ever walk normaly. I do, and did very well in sports as a kid. But I can still remember my mom doing therapy on my foot every night before going to bed.
I guess some moms are cut out for it - and other’s not. Too bad the “nots” can’t have their tubes tied in knots early on.
There is an amazing video of a three year old boy born with amniotic band syndrome or some similar name, where he has a part of a fist and a nub or two of fingers. 3D printing is making amazing strides in printing cheap little prosthetic arms and legs - something most people couldn’t do with kids because the prosthetic costs thousands and has to be replaced as the kid grows.
He wanted a prosthetic hand that looked like Iron Man’s so he had a red and yellow prosthetic hand made by a charity. It cost around $50 plus volunteer design time.
The first thing he did was hold his hands together, then hold everyone else’s hands.
The “burden” of the disability she’s concerned about is going away.
And giving in to “you’re not perfect, off with you” opens the door to the kid that lives saying the same thing when she’s looking at expensive assisted living instead of living at home.
