The perfect child.

Healthy, wealthy, and wise decisions by parents.

TimesOnline  has a report on how medical professionals and parents are using abortion to weed out the slightly lame and crippled.  (I guess it is a more convenient way to save on future medical bills.)

MORE than 50 babies with club feet were aborted in just one area of England in a three-year period, according to new statistics.

Thirty-seven babies with cleft lips or palates and 26 with extra or webbed fingers or toes were also aborted.

The data have raised concerns about abortions being carried out for minor disabilities that could be cured by surgery. - TimesOnline

Nice parents.

    I’m glad my parents didn’t mind that I had green eyes when they were expecting brown.

    When I was born–I was born blind–my mom talked many times of doing me a favor by taking me to the lake and drowning me. Well, later my eyesight improved and now, with lazer surgery, my vision is good enough to drive. But if she could have, my mom would have drowned me–sigh!

    Tara, I’m so happy your Mom didn’t do that! The thought makes me feel sad. God is merciful.

    Thanks for the love Terry–God is so merciful!
