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.

An extra finger or toe is not a disease! is it? Some women don't want to bring a baby into the world if it is going to be mentally challenged. I mean, yea thats not fair on the baby, and the mother wanted to get pregnant, but I can actually understand this. My mum works with a disabled kid, he's 10 and he's in nappies, he cant talk, he walks around looking at his hands all day going MA MA MA. Now what Kind of a life is that?

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?

Too young to take proper care of it without the assistance of others. Now I know that every women who has a baby needs some type of help. But some kids who have kids miss out on soo much school, and it screws up their life. They won't be okay financially, because they won't have a career. Its so stupid to have a baby in that case, but then for no real reason I don't agree with aborting the baby, even though im sure it would be best, i just cant agree!
