Mother of down Syndrome Baby Urged to Abort

Some estimates say that 90 – 92% of all babies with down syndrome are aborted. Many times, the medical professionals put pressure on women to have abortions when their baby is less-than-perfect:

“A woman I know was told by her obstetrician that her fetus had Down syndrome.  The doctor ordered her to abort, she refused….  Another woman was similarly coerced.  Her doctor told her that her baby would be more like a fish than a human and would only be as smart as a baboon.”
