Er..kids don't get kicked off ssi when they turn 18, not if they're disabled.Negative eugenics, world wide, of a scale that would have given Hitler and his doktors a shiver up their legs.
"What an age to live in. Get pregnant; see if the baby meets your specifications. If not, just abort and try again."
No decent parent rejects a child’s love because the child is imperfect. Nobody casts aside an eight-year-old because she has bad grades or an attitude problem. So why would we think it is acceptable to destroy the life of a child, the result of a wanted pregnancy, because the child will be disabled? As the progressives put it, isn’t this the most horrible example of ableist privilege?
"If we are going down the road of selective abortion for admirable traits, one has to wonder if oneself would make the cut.
"After all, having a child isn’t really about the child. It’s about you and your hopes and dreams, your demand to live your best life."
Aborting Down Syndrome Babies Is An Absolute Moral Depravity
People have to think in long term. This is not "bad grades and an attitude problem".
This is a cognitive disability. This is life long care and should the parent pass away then there is no one available. If the child receives SSI before 18 then at some point they will get kicked off and if no one is there to navigate the SSA then they will have nothing.
More Than Two-Fifths Of Homeless Have Disabilities - Disability Scoop
When the US can manage to effectively care for the ones that are living then this can become a necessary conversation. So far, they have done a shitty job and they continue to do so because these people cannot fight back. They cannot navigate the system. And there is no real place for them to go, as nursing homes etc. were privatized.
And we don't kill people for being disabled. That's what nazis, commies, and other disgusting criminals do.
Er....but it happens. I am dealing with several.
