Wrongful Birth
Via Elusive Wapiti:
A couple from Portland is suing for $3 million because a prenatal test failed to tell them their daughter had Down's syndrome. They need the money because if they had known they would have killed her via abortion, but now they have to support her for the rest of her life.
1. The test has a 99.7% accuracy rate. Why should they get any money just because they are the 0.3%?
2. This sounds like a perfect opportunity for a post birth abortion. Unfortunately, the parents that are suing because they didn't get to kill her, now love their daughter dearly.
3. I wish both sides could lose. We have a company that sells a test that is responsible for the deaths of many children, versus a couple that wants money because they missed their window to kill their child.
We declined the test three times.

That's what we've been saying all along.
Killing Babies no different than abortion, experts say.
It's possible that we didn't mean it in the same way. There is no magic event or moment in time that transforms a "fetus" into a person. I've said that we should err on the side of caution, and assume that life and personhood begin at conception.
It seems that a couple of professors are arguing that we should take it the other direction. One supposes that personhood is conferred with a phd.
