to be or not to be?



The other day on the van back to Sg, a few of us were discussing some really interesting qns worth a thought. And I want to share with you guys one of the question- Will you bring your child to this world if you found out during your pregnancy that he/she have some form of disabilities?
Well, I can understand some views of taking away the baby for his/her "own good" and knowing that I may not be competent enough to take care of this child . But what is the definition of "good"? What is the so called "best life" for this child? Does it mean being disabled-free means he will be happier? What is happiness? Many such questions started popping up but for me, I only have one firm answer that is I will bring my child to this world. Coz I feel that I don't have the right to make the decision of taking away his/her life and this child should be given a chance.
I agree that there're many moral issues regarding this qn. What's your take?
