A new noninvasive test for Down's syndrome will eliminate the small risk of the current test.
This might lead more women to get tested, and abort fetuses that have Down's syndrome. Let's hope so!
There are people who argue for carrying these fetuses to term by citing how moving it is to love and care for them afterwards. Maybe it is, but that amounts to treating a human being as a pet. The first step in loving a human being is to choose to make that being more capable, not less.
If you'd like to love and care for a pet that doesn't have normal human mental capacity, don't create a handicapped human being to be your pet. Get a dog or a parrot instead. For them, having less than normal human mental capacity is simply normal.
