I have talked to many women who have had abortions and eventually they are unable to rationalize and justify their "choice" any longer and have to face the reality of what they have done.

-a follow-up article on the cold blooded infertility couple.
ahh yes.....I “might” lose the babies, so I may as well kill them now.
I “might” have autistic boys, so better to get rid of them.
I wonder what medical exists where it is necessary to kill 2 fetuses, but it is acceptable to retain 2?
I keep seeing intimations that the younger generation is likely to exercise its choice not to support the elderly, so we may see the selfish arguements turned back on us.
two too many? sorry, makes no sense to me.
many women have carried multiple births to
full term.
another article posted here today describes
a baby born to crack 25 yrs ago who just
graduated from law school. now that kiddo and
his adoptive parents had many real challenges.
the two sons this couple selected to “reduce”
did not have anything even close, just a higher
risk of autism...that just breaks my heart.
My cousin and his wife are dealing with the consequence of in-vitro fertilization. She had difficulty carrying and after a few miscarriages, they finnaly had a healthy baby boy. So they decided to do it with the remaining embryo’s. The two twin girls were born at 28 weeks, and both continue to struggle. They are now 30 weeks, and my cousin spends every moment at the hospital. I pray for the girls daily, but I struggle with the thoughts that they’re parent’s selfishness, although well intentioned, is resulting in those innocent babies facing a life of challenges. I don’t know what the right answer is, other than prayer.
Another reason why fertility should be left to mother nature.
It's one thing when secular attention junkies and church haters misuse this line, it's inexcusable when an ostensibly christian writer does.
Pet peeve. Otherwise glad to see the piece.
Are you sure the writer misused it? I read the headline in the original sense (as used by Christ, "Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not" (Mark 10:14, KJV), and took it to mean "Allow the children to come and partake of Life, do not deny them their right".
Maybe I'm being naive... but I gave her the benefit of the doubt.
I have a Downs Syndrome grandson. Things like this hurt his soul as well as mine.
I hope that one day they realize how much they have passed along their “value of life” when they are elderly and their child needs to decide what to do with them.
The original story was so heartless. They put five embryos in, knowing that there were five lives. Yet, they agreed to kill several if they didn’t die off themselves. They should have only placed two embryos in to begin with. If not, the article never mentioned the woman’s life was at stake. If she could have survived the pregnancy on bed rest, she should have done it for the children she put in danger. The worst part of his article was his callousness and their choice to kill their boys because they might not be “perfect”. All people are created in the image of God. Therefore, while with sin, all are perfect.
By then, if the Dems have their way, we could have Univeral Healthcare and euthanasia. Then the government might decide to go ahead and euthanize.
“I hope that one day they realize how much they have passed along their “value of life” when they are elderly and their child needs to decide what to do with them.”
Indeed, they might well decide they can only support one Aged P. and so need to do away with the other. They might not even be sad about it.
Disgusting people.
