The potential for life is there ,no question about that but what quality of life is there ?and should we concider that much more than we do at the moment ?.The answer to all those questions depends greatly on the severity of the disability but when should society deem a disability is severe enough to not have any or very little quality of life
If they do not think "life is not worth living" they they can kill themselfs, we are not "forcing a child to live" but "givng it a chance"

Abortion of the ground of disablity, sex, race and all other factors bar case of rape and when the womans life is under threat is wrong!
