They are lucky that this is the controversy. They could end up finding a way to predict someone with dwarfism inside the womb; then, we will see a reduction in the number of these people being born at all. Rather like what has happened with Downs Syndrome.

It goes both ways, prenatal diagnosis and abortion.

There have been dwarf and genetically deaf couples who have terminated pregnancies of normal babies, and others who have terminated affected babies.
