Disabled Children and Our Cultural Blindspot - Blog - Eternal Perspective Ministries: As far back as the 1980's, I read about a survey of pediatricians in which 3/4 said they would abort if knew they were going to have a Down Syndrome Child. Another survey of pediatricians and pediatric surgeons revealed that more than two out of three would go along with parents’ wishes to deny life-saving surgery to a child with Down syndrome.
On the one hand, we provide special parking and elevators for the handicapped. . . . But when we hear a woman is carrying one of these very children, many say, “Kill it.”
