” People live into their nineties now.”
Not really. The average age has been going down with the baby boomers. People always have lived into their 90’s, that is nothing new. I will stand that it is selfish to treat children as something you want and not consider the child’s needs later in life. Birth defects of late pregnancies are also as they were, very high. Placing children at risk for defects because you suddenly find you want a child is again selfish.
It doesn’t look to me as though this little girl has a birth defect. Or as if she was conceived as some sort of whim. Or as though she wishes she was never born because she’s losing her father at 11.
Life is precious. Children are a gift from God. If God allowed her to be born, He wanted her on this earth, whether she has a father or not, even if you think she and my children should never have been born. Take it up with God: He started her.
