It does feel like a "gotcha" kind of post, particularly since Sirlinksalot has not stuck around. But on the assumption that the question is genuine, I think people are right on the money here. Baptise the child (quickly), pray for his health, and support the family. There is really nothing else to do.

I am gratified that there is not a lot of discussion here about the utility of the life of this child. That way lies all sorts of horrors.

You are right. The conversation it started is good. Me being the suspicious type, I think maybe he didn't stick around because the response didn't fit the template.

I may be wrong, but I've seen this method too often.

On the other hand, I agree with every one here. The child should be born, God gave it life, and it is rude for someone else, even the parents, to take it for convenience sake.

God will take it back on his own time, not ours.
