By setting an arbitrary limit, that 11% could have been zero percent instead of the 20% it is today. Only by pushing the limits do we push the survivability back week after week after week.
Ten years ago survivability may have been 28 weeks (just a guestimate). Today it's 23 to 24. Setting a limit will insure only one thing. That 23 to 24 weeks will be the limit from here on out. Frankly I'd like to see it become 15 weeks sometime down the road and even less years after that.
Limits? No.

Although most doctors are opposed to an age limit, Sir Alan Craft, president of the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health, said it was a legitimate option to consider. One possible course of action would be not to intervene with any 23-week-old babies unless they breathe completely and spontaneously themselves, he said. Know this. God will NOT be mocked. You WILL answer to Him someday, and He is NOT someone who will look lightly at this disgusting "course of action".

My youngest brother was 28 weeks when he was born in 1970 (my mother got food poisoning and it induced labor). He was in an incubator for over a month and the doctors predicted he would have health problems throughout his life.
From the second grade on, my brother was on the all star little league baseball team every year. In high school he ran track and his times were in the top ten in the nation for medium distances. After college he went into the Army and was a Ranger, a compound fracture to his shoulder following a parachute jump and his disgust with having Klintoon as Commander in Chief made him decide to leave the service. He went to law school and is now a successful corporate attorney.
And that's my experience with premature babies.

What is the difference between these people and those that murder babies via abortion simply because of convenience?

Take a look at what I wrote in #11.

This is in England, it's not here yet (but if we ever get socialized medicine in will be!), England is following Holland's example.

Wow! Pretty cool, to say the least!!!!!!!
My experience with Preemies? Well.....I think you know. ;)
Oh, and to the poster who asked what's the difference between this and the abortionists? IMO, on the one hand, no difference. OTOH!...this is more blatant-murder.

Bliss, the premature baby charity, says about 50 babies born at 23 weeks survive every year and it would be wrong to deny them the chance to live.
I am afraid I dont think this is disgusting. Survive is a long shot from livning.

The thought of this premature baby lying on the table while so called doctors and nurses stand by and watch it die is horrific. I suppose Dr. Mengele would reach over and wring its little neck. How do so-called human beings come up with ideas like this.
My Nephew was a premie of 5 months. He is now as healthy as anyone else ,smarter than a whip, and is 16 and works two jobs already. Nice kid. When I think that this woman and these doctors may have flushed him down a toilet it sickens me.
To: mlmr
Read what I wrote in #11, and keep in mind that in 1970, 28 weeks was probably more critical than 23 weeks is today.

So of those that survive, most of them either have no disability or have something mild like a "squint". And for this, they must die?
