Some have argued that this impact is modern-day eugenics. Certainly the halving of future generations, with abortions being performed purely because of the genetic makeup of the child, sounds of eugenics. But the test developers, and many others, are quick to point out that the testing itself is purely informative.

It can only be described as eugenics, the entire culture of death is based on eugenics.

Purely informative. They can’t even be honest about their desire to kill all the less than “perfect” humans. They don’t want to admit their kinship with the Mater Race people.

**But the regime of prenatal testing for Down syndrome is exposed for the sham that it is when the double standard within prenatal testing is considered. In 2007, the same year that the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) recommended that all women be offered testing for Down syndrome, ACOG’s ethics committee issued an opinion finding that prenatal testing for sex selection was unethical. **

Forget the testing. God is in control.

The same arguments for prenatal testing for Down syndrome can be made for prenatal testing for sex selection.

Sorry but that's idiotic. Girls are healthy people, people with Down syndrome are not. If nothing else a person with Down syndrome cannot have children and carry a family line forward.

When Mrs SV was pregnant with our youngest the doctors asked if we wanted the genetic testing. We said no and they went ahead and ran the tests anyway. Later when the baby was due to be born via C-section they asked my wife at least 4 times if she wanted to have her tubes tied. Finally my very meek wife snapped at them that she had told them no and she wasn’t changing her mind.

A problem with a relatively easy solution: decline the tests.

That said, I was shocked by the level of pressure placed on us to get the testing.
