Tough Question

I agree with the person above me. Just because a person is diffrent doesn't mean they are not a person. No, I don't think she should, but she should work on closing her legs more often.

Wow! what a misfortune! i would strongly suggest that she go for the abortion...though religion said otherwise..but i think she got her hand full with 8 children, and there's very high chances that the child she's carrying may be abnormal too..

just to let you know...your question was copied by another user. I reported him (businezboy)!

I think that it would be entirely her choice...being deaf, blind or mentally/cognitively impaired does not make a person less human than a fully able-bodied and able-minded person. I'd (obviously) recommend treatment for syphilis though, regardless of whether she decided to terminate the pregnancy. (By the way, this isn't one of those "if you said yes, you just killed Martin Luther King" questions, is it?)

I definitely think that she should have the abortion depending on what part of the pregnancy she's in. Usually I'm not for abortion, but with her track record, why would anyone want to take the chance of bringing another handicapped child into the world. Any woman who would let herself get pregnant under these circumstances is obviously not of a mindset to care for the children she already has, much less another one. The foster care system is already overwhelmed with disabled children that no one wants to care for.

I would not recommend an abortion. Who would want to kill Beethoven??? His music is the greatest!

o this is the Mozart thing isn't it?

I don't know. I would deffinitely recommend she have her tubes tied. Yes I would probably recommend she have an abortion. For the childs sake.

I think that one should probably be left in God's hands. If the baby is meant to be born healthy and her syphilis still allows her to carry the baby to term the it was meant to be. God will take the child early if it's not meant to be. It would be hard for me to suggest someone get an abortion - she could be carrying the person that finds the cure for Aids or Cancer. The first woman president! You just never know. :O)

interesting..... probably yes but followed up with psychiatric treatment for her why did she get pregnant again? didnt anyone tell her that knees must be kept together?

that is a really tough question...i am not for abortion.. definitely not , but having what she has..man!!! it's basically a decision that you have to take for the liofe of that unborn child!! If you try to put yourself in her shoes.... it's even more difficult. I would first say she is the one that did a huge mistake - letting herself become pregnant , so she should take the abortion!! it is acrime, but she has to take the responsability ! i hope i wasn't to hard on her...

This one was hard to come up with an answer for. If the doctors knew that something like that would be wrong with the baby then i might consider it but if not then no way! I'm not going to take the chance of aborting a perfectly healthy baby.
