I respect everyone's honesty... In my honest opinion, if this was detected early (within one month of discovering the pregnancy), I would probably look into an abortion. Once I develop a bond with a child there is no way in hell I'm gonna have him killed. I know that may seem hypocritical, but I'm just being honest.
We also need to address other factors in this decision. Many of the responses seem to be coming from people that aren't in relationships and have no plans to have children anytime soon. It's easy for someone to push for an abortion when they have no feelings for the lady, and wanted nothing more than a nut. For anyone that takes their woman seriously, it would be very hard to see her go through that procedure.
To those of you that think it's wrong to bring DS baby into the world, how do you all feel about ignorant and poor people bringing children into the world. There are healthy kids who are brought into the world with tremendous disadvantages as a result of the life their parents lived prior to their conception.
Pardon the randomness, but I'd rather have a DS baby than a healthy child running in the streets calling himself a gang banger and getting killed before his 18th birthday (I just watched that LA gang shit on NGC).
At the end of the day, it's to each his own. I'm on the fence about this, but I would have to think long and hard about an abortion.

what care and treatment does a down's child need besides all the normal care for kids?
do you speak of experience? It's obvious you don't
and all of you who say yes, are lowlife's
I don't know what I would do...
No, I would love her care for her provide for her and raise her...just like I'm supposed to ..
yea they still practice both depending on who tha females doctor is...my girl went to an old head....this clown even knew how much tha kid weighed while he was in the womb
.......but i cant see myself killing a seed of mine
To be quite honest, yes.
also people are lumping in Autism with Down's and they are two very very different things
There are many levels of Austim Bill Gates has a form of Autism, then there are Autistic kids that can't take care of themselves at all.
Many Down's kids are high functioning, go to school have jobs, have friends, like certain music, like certain foods just like any other person.
Y'all are acting like Down's kids can't dress themselves or take their own showers or use the bathroom on their own
y'all are some really ignorant selfish muthafuckas
do a google search and look up Geraldo Rivera Down Syndrome it was in the early 70's back when he was a serious journalist..and you see how they just to treat kids with Down's they would put them in mental hospitals and they would get treated less than human.

ill fade that lil ninja....i'll take it a step further you should be able to fade any lil ninja under a year old that has a terminal condition. the most loving thing you can do is release them of their pain. i dont want to imagine a life in which pain is all it knows. Merc that lil fucker!!!
Some of the replies in here Peace
I dont know bout the dumb fucks saying 'hell yea' but as for me I would actually consider it. Taking care of a child wit down syndrome is a great responsibility that will drain you emotionally and physically. Plus the amount of money you would have to spend for special care.
WHY?
Hell yes. Start again. The stress & stain of raising a child that will never leave and will always be dependent on you is horrible. My cousin has a son that is autistic, and not the nice Rain Man autistic. This dude is bad, past grown and she still has to take care of his bad ass. I thought that it was from all the drugs her and her husband did, but I bet you if she would have had a second chance she would have aborted his ass and tried again.

first off....... you said yor girl is pregnat............ so to me that means that the young lady in the pic is not related to you....... so if you were trying to be funny you failed ... that shit was/ is fucked up! why would you make fun of somebody like that.... if it wasnt you intention to be funny then my buss....... i have a nephew with downs syndrome...... he has lived pass his expected time here with us........ his birth has most deffinately been a blessing to my family....... his life has brought us joy and happiness that i dont think we would not have had he not been born....... he is ALWAYS happy!!!!! he is always peaceful, his presance is love........ he has been the glue that has held us together when we wuld have other wise feel apart...... just him being alive!!!!! i have another nephew who is around the same age as I am and growing up we treated him just like he was normal... because as far as we were concerned he was / is...... he can bust ass on ANY video game........ he has @ girlfriends and he's finished school (for special people) he goes to a work program that pays him.... he attends all types of dances and at family functions he is the life of the party.... the only thing that saddens me is that he will forever be 8 or 9 yrs old and he is now 33 or 34.... he can cook using a microwave, go to the corner store, and participates in the special olympics, ( they all get gold medals lol) ect.... ect...... i cant imagen what MY life would be like w/o him in it........ there is nothing to be ashamed of........... if people dont want to be apart of your life as a result of that birth you dont need those people in your life, period! the severity of the retardation will determine the quality of life that they live but it is up too you to make a difference in that area... I had an abortion a while back and that shit still hunts me....... this could be the thing that solidifys your relationship.......... if you pray.......do that! there are no mistakes only obsticals for us to overcome........... good luck bro...... if you need any more advice or info feel free to pm me!
Props to you and your family.
Just how the fuck do you fade a child that is already born? What kind of shit is this? Some of you seriously need to put the damn weed down.
On the Real man...........I dont know how i would handle something like that.......I would be a mental wreck...........So i dont think i would keep the child man!!!
Nah homie. Youre the one that came off tryin to tie eugenics to sparing your child a potential life of multifaceted handicap. Further I didnt say your were my example. I was just sayin a lot of folk like to tout some type of higher morality and then when shit hit the fan they fold like a cheap suit.
Does a handicap child deserve a chance to live? I'd say yes without a doubt. But I go further to say that a child deserves a chance to live a full healthy life and if its in the cards to be a life of sufferring and we have a chance to do something about the life should be spared from going thru the agony. Im not hatin your position just your openin analogy. Peep I actually gave full props to those that have dealt with handicap family. I have dealt with fam and others who are handicap and have no ill will-im just sayin if you could prevent it, why the fuck not? Now after the birth when you start to bond thats a whole nother matter. A parents natural tendancy is to do everything they can for the child.
On the real though I can respect and understand the opposing opinion. Can you do the same?
Don't blame bullshit answers on the weed nigga!
I don't know what I would do...
I'd kick it out her guts. That's y we have technology, so that we know shit like this and...sidestep...that shit. No point in making like more difficult that it already could be.
