Gryph Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 "People with serious inheritable disabilities should not be allowed to reproduce." To me people with serious inheritable disabilities don't have the mental or physical capacity to reproduce. But even if it was possible, it would do more damage than good for the child. I said no.

I said no.I can tell you it is completely possible; inabilities can be mental or physical, not necessarily both. Therefore someone with a physical inability can be mentally perfectly sane, and vice-versa.Forbidding people with inabilities to reproduce... sounds completely nazi to me. (and I also have other reasons to disagree) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(and I also have other reasons to disagree) Dude...have you worked with severely mentally and physically handicapped people? They are no capacity to care for a child. It's not that they shouldn't be allowed, but they should be discouraged. And the question asks about SERIOUS inhertible disabilities. Now if it said diseases instead of disabilities, it would be a different thing. But that question is not very well worded because people with serious disablities, mental or physical, will find it very hard to reproduce.

Weirdy Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 Gryph, have you ever seen the movie "I am Sam" starring that Penn dude. It's about this dude with down syndrome who sleeps with a hooker and the hooker spends time with him until she has his baby and she just goes away leaving him...a dude with down syndrome, with a daughter. It was pretty strange, seeing as how the little girl was growing up smarter than him and he had the mental capacity of a 7yr old. Seeing that it isn't so much a bad thing for a mentally challenged person to reproduce (even if it is on accident) Rainman on the other hand is a different story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taratata Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 Dude...have you worked with severely mentally and physically handicapped people?No, but I guess it gets near that.And the question asks about SERIOUS inhertible disabilities. Now if it said diseases instead of disabilities, it would be a different thing.Aren't all inheritable inabilities diseases?But that question is not very well worded because people with serious disablities, mental or physical, will find it very hard to reproduce.Of course it only concerns those that can.
