So any hereditary disease would be a genuine reason to abort the baby if the mother wanted to? Some are more severe than others (obviously) but some are simply things such as an extra finger or toe or two. To me, that seems completely in a different ball-park than the baby having a hereditary disease where it'd die in a few painful years or live longer but require immense assistance for everything. Suppose for example Proteus Syndrome was detectable before its onset (not sure if it currently is but I think it isn't), that's nothing compared to polydactyly, and aborting because of polydactyly seems ridiculous.

If you want you can continue to but there's no need to say your opinion because it's redundant.
When you say too young to have a baby, do you mean too young to physically have one or too young to provide proper care to it without the assistance of others?
