Happy Birthday

This is courtesy of Paul Cat. I think this video addresses something not talked about too often and that is the father's feelings following an abortion. The idea of reflecting on what the child would be has been brought up in connection with the mother but we often forget that the father will have the same naggings of conscience.

Happy Birthday, I Love You Whoever You Would Have Been.

Prenatal genetic screenings

Unfit to live? Children with Down's syndrome in Canadian crosshairs

A Canadian medical group is advocating prenatal genetic screening for all pregnant women. Specifically, Down's syndrome testing seems to be the main focus. What does this mean for a woman pregnant with a child who has Down's syndrome? Will the testing make her better prepared to take care of this child? Or will the test give her a reason to abort her child? Is this a step towards better care of Down's syndrome children or just towards eugenics and the death of these children? Who gets to decide?
