you attack me with overgeneralized and unbacked statements in order to validate your point, and then defend yourself by saying I don't know you? n/m, think what u want, this isn't a big deal but once again I hope you can one day have a conversation with this girl and tell her what you're telling us. | ||

Q: What is the cause of TCS? A: TCS is caused by a mutation in the genes. A child can inherit TCS from his parent(s) if one or both of his parents have it. A child can also get TCS via a random genetic mutation that occurs during fetal development. theres a lot of info and pictures of the girl who runs the site (who has the disease) at this site: http://www.treachercollins.org/ But the baby's case is much much worse than this girl's -_-;; | ||

I didn't mean to say you're uncompassionate and unkind, I just meant to say your view on this subject doesn't make you kinder and more compassionate than I am, I thought that was clear. | ||

Damn those horrible parents for not having an abortion. wow, i do wonder how people can write something like this, i guess they haven't experienced anything similar, and the fact most people on this board are in their teens makes it harder to look at the bigger picture. I mean, during the pregnancy they thought the worst case scenario was a cleft lip, and even had they known the truth, many people wouldn't have aborted it. When my mother was told there might be problems with my little brother (something like 30% chance of brain damage), she COULD have had an abortion just in case. She didn't, he's fine, and even had he had brain damage, he'd have been loved the same way as he is now. Just because someone isn't as *normal* looking as you or i, doesn't stop them living a happy and fruitful life. Sure, it will be much harder for the little girl, but really i don't see abortion as the solution. The emotional attactment from mother to child during the pregnancy, the wanting a child, and the unrequited love a parent can place upon their child makes decision like abortion much harder than 'omg she might look like a monster, we cant let her live !11!1' I wish some people waited till they had either experienced something similar, or at least matured before posting some of their comments. At least with people like baal we know he's joking. | ||

I swear I'd pay money to have five minutes in a ring with that kid - honestly. I think I'd shoot for messing up his face beyond all repair. Then we could see how much he really believes that bullshit he's spewing. | ||

I mean do yall think all retarded/defected people should be killed? They are picked on everyday aren't they? For example, everyone that was born paralyzed should be executed b/c they will be made fun of b/c they can't play sports! that's so miserable!!!!!! Do you only think people with no defects should be able to live? If so you are such a fucking Nazi >_> people with defects should be allowed to live, but retards and assholes shouldnt be allowed to procreate. it's bad for the human race. | ||

"30% chance my brother would have mental dissabilities" i woudlnt abort either. Its only a thirty percent chance. and its only a mental dissability, in society thats not a condemnation. that however, 80% of the people in this world would cringe upon seeing, myself included. if i woke up one day and looked like that, i would shoot myself. not a single doubt about it. | ||

If you havent noticed, theres a number of us here who have no problem with her at all. So why is your opinion the only valid one?theres a rather distinguished line between being a little slow and having downs syndrome, and looking like an absolute freak of nature.

Who cares what she looks like? Shes just another person. If you would look down on her so much because of a birth defect then maybe you should really consider remodeling your life. | ||

1. to the guy that said he'd kill himself if he woke up and looked like that. Maybe so, but you didn't look like that the day before...she'll have no perspective what so ever on having a normal face, so it'll be FAR easier for her to accept it. 2. a friend of mine was in a car accident and had half of his face ripped off, but it was repaired with multiple stories...even though he was not close to looking normal, he's one of the coolest people i've ever met, a very happy person, and he's even had a few girlfriends after the accident. to sit here and say no one but her family will ever love her is not only immature, but shallow as well. 3. its very likely that she'll get government grants to pay for home schooling or the such, not to mention where science could be in another 15 to 20 years. 4. dont downplay the love of family. i've been on both sides, there's very few things a person cant take when they're able to go home to someone that loves them. 4. i also find it very immature and shallow of people to say that no one liking her will make her unhappy to the point of not wanting to live. there's plenty of things to enjoy in life that dont involve being with another person. | ||
