Disability and abortion
December 8, 2015 at 1:18 pm
So I as pro-choice person I always hit this little snag when the reasons for abortion are rolled out, and all of them are good except this one. My biggest red flag are the words "quality of life". And it always makes me really uncomfortable as a pro-choice person that people who quite often have never encountered a person with a disability or talked to one make judgments about the kind of lives we lead. Especially when your pregnancy is planned.
