She said something I had suspected. Women will still abort a child with downs, even in states that's it's illegal they just won't say why they are aborting, or give another or no reason.

It will be hard to prove the downs baby was discriminated against. Most often downs babies are discriminated against in the medical community first and foremost.

I saw that segment as I was getting ready for church. John is such a sweetheart. I’ll be ordering from JohnsCrazySocks for Christmas. I have a neice with Downs.

And to add...my son was suspected of having DS because I was 36 when I had him. I knew the risks. Didn’t matter. He had a couple of ‘markers’ when born but genetic tests came back negative.

Hear is a wonderful video I show our teens in Confirmation when we are discussing this subject. Very effective and the kids “get it” and never fails to get a positive response from them on the Pro-life side of the issue. Only two minutes, enjoy:

I am writing a science fiction series set in the future, where the religious live in secret, and such children are automatically aborted in the mainstream.

I have known some such children in the past when I worked in the church, but I am doing more research, since I want to represent them in a respectful and realistic manner.
