Without getting emotional about the obsolute horror this lady went through and the fact that we'll never know if she mentally recovers

There are three points

1) She has the mental age of a 4yo. If it were me, I'd like to think that my mother would have the whereabouts to terminate my pregnancy if I were 4yo.

2) She is in physical danger herself if she continues the pregnancy

3) She was raped! - it simply was not meant to be. Please don't contrast this statement with an unwanted pregnancy - it is not the same.


As to some of you guys taking this story and making the point about disabled people not being allowed to have children - well, thank god you don't get to make that decision.
