I have had friends over the years with special needs children, but most of them would not have benefited from a pre-natal test for their childs condition, ie not downs. They love their kids and in general, the kids seem happy. Each of these parents struggle with the future for these children after they are gone/unable to care for these kids.
Given a choice, I would not want to live a life with Downs. There are several chronic medical conditions that I would not choose to struggle with. Quad-para is one.
If I had a downs pregnancy, I would abort. I would consider that as in the best interest of the child.
What if they where two years old? Might as well see how bad it is?
