Most people die... does your reasoning follow there as well?
MOST people die? Do you think you aren't going to die?
All people die.

You are at liberty to call this selfishness; it is, however, the unvarnished truth and I make no apologies for it. If I had been compelled by the state to give birth to a child that I knew was afflicted by an incurable condition, I would immediately give that child up for adoption so that the state would be forced to foot the bill for raising the child.
What if your child suffered a debilitating life long injury at some point after they were already born? Would you say you'd turn them over to the state then too?
With that being said, there are adoption agencies specifically for special needs babies. There are many people out there wanting to adopt them. Contrary to popular belief, disabled people are not worthless or unwanted.
Adopt that hypothetical baby yet?
I know it's a tender issue, but you may have genetic issues with babies of your own. You want babies. You don't believe in abortion. You have a stable family and money. You go on and on about how adoption is a viable option.
You are the IDEAL family for adoption. Why haven't you done it yet?
