Never mind that your kid could start out perfectly healthy and become disabled later. Are you gonna ditch a sick kid at the hospital the minute you find out they have brittle bone, or cp, or they're deaf? What's that? No? Because that would make you an asshole. But it's just acceptable to ditch developmentally delayed kids. Maybe certain people don't need kids.
It's not really the same as
1. Disabled children has a great many extra needs that some parents can't deal with.
2. I'm semi for later term adoption (I doubt anyone proposing ditching them in a hospital) it's harsh but sometimes but sometimes the best solution isn't always the nicest(personal experience has shown this )
