How many babies will be aborted for 70% accuracy?

Could have sworn that said “Arlen Specter” disorder.

So much easier to kill than cure.

More than twenty years ago I declined to have my son participate in a genetic study for that reason.

Still no cure, other than hard hard work towards normalcy.

SARCASM ON: Yes, abort them all -— who NEEDS “defective” people anyway???

SARCASM OFF: Aborting children who test positive for ASD means risking NOT having any more likely-positive and “defective” people like: Hans Christian Andersen, Lewis Carroll, Charles Darwin, Emily Dickinson, Paul Dirac (British mathematician and physicist, Awarded the 1933 Nobel Prize in Physics for his work on the mathematical foundations of Quantum Mechanics), Thomas Jefferson, Michelangelo, Isaac Newton, George Orwell, Charles Richter (seismologist, creator of the eponymous scale of earthquake magnitude), Jonathan Swift, Nikola Tesla, Alan Turing (pioneer of computer sciences), Andy Warhol, W. B. Yeats, and Albert Einstein.

My oldest son arrived with what was labeled "genetic" problems. When my 2nd son was "cooking", the "genetics expert" that had examined my 1st son recommended aborting my 2nd. I said, "screw you fraud". My 2nd son stands 6' 2.5", graduated with a 4.33 GPA, served with the USMC in Kuwait/Iraq, put himself through college, earned his broker's license and is married today. The fraud wearing "MD" after his name doesn't deserve any publicity.

The fraud said #1 son would be a dwarf. He was 6' tall. He had serious heart problems that I attribute to vaccines administered to my wife as part of her nursing program before she was aware of her pregnancy.

How do you know its purpose? Maybe they just want to make a diagnosis.
