It just isn't, but if you could think critically you wouldn't believe in angels.

"It is a social philosophy advocating the improvement of human genetic traits through the promotion of higher reproduction of people with desired traits (positive eugenics), and reduced reproduction of people with less-desired or undesired traits (negative eugenics)."

shehateme wasn't expressing a social philosophy. he/she was talking about what he/she would do personally, not advocating what people should do generally, and even if it was something he/she would suggest generally, in order for it to qualify under this negative eugenics idea it would have to be suggested generally toward the specific purpose of population control and not merely suggested as a good idea for any other reason (such as simply to not have a fucked up kid).

I agree, seems like shehateme was talking about not being prepared to care for a child with extreme disabilities. I don't believe I could either, financially, time and I don't believe I could deal with the heartbreak.
