Abortion and the Handicapped
Navarro’s article regarding her Aunt Perrie’s decision to have an abortion because of complications in the development of her unborn child is not an issue of a lack of empathy or discrimination towards the disabled. Aunt Perrie in fact seemed intelligently aware of the struggle that the disabled do face each day. Her decision to abort her child is not a personal one against Navarro’s disability in any way.
