If she's mentally disabled then she is not competent enough to sue.
Sad there are lawyers taking advantage of a woman with no comprehension for their own enrichment.

Why kill her?
She is being used as a tool.
It's the lawyers you should have in your sights.

She hates herself because of her conditions. I feel sorry for her. She should be loved and appreciated, not encouraged to sue for being born.

Lawyers said that if her mother, Olga Harriton, had known of the extent of the disabilities, she would have had an abortion.

** She knows this how? Did her mom tell her this? This is so sad.

Wait a minute! She's mentally disabled? Who knows what she really wants and thinks? Sounds like someone is going after the money and maybe the right to kill her too.

That is what it sounds like to me.

Considering her extent of her disabilities I doubt Alexia has an opinion on this issue, but her mother does and she sees $$$$$$$$$$.

Waiting 24 years to file suit somehow doesn't pass the smell test.

Are there some new laws in play here, or just new lawyers?

The article says the mother would have had the abortion of she had known the extent of her daughter's disability. From the descripotion of her disabilities, I doubt the daughter has an opinion about anything this profound.

"..... God is full of grace in all situations....." That's very true but not everyone is a Helen Keller.

*** I know it happens but somehow I'm still shocked that a mother would express such feelings to her child. Even if it's TRUE one should keep such things to the self. I suppose if one is very bitter about having a disabled child you can't hide for long.

What bothers me most about this is that if whoever is driving this wins what will happen to her and other less than perfect babies. Will she then have to die? Call me suspious but I wonder is there is an agenda and more than just money to this.

If the woman is mentally disabled, then how did she make the decision to sue? No, her mother simply didn't want to have to take care of a "defective" child, and wishes that her child never existed.

My twin brother was born with severe cerebral Palsy back in the 50's. Our family took care of him until he died in 1972.

By living with my brother on a day to day basis we learned to love, honor, and respect him, and each other, more than we thought humanly possible. The value of life is precious, and with it comes responsibility.

We also learned that God is in control, and the blessings that we garnered from taking care of my brother will be with us forever.

It looks like lawyers and the daughter to me.

If the lawyers say she wishes she had never been born then offer her a free plan ticket to Demark (?). Kill her off.

If the lawyers say "No" then its about the money.
