Prenatal Testing

This article in the NY Times brings up several thought-provoking questions. It's a hard decision - if you know that your fetus will have Down's syndrome, would you choose to have the baby anyway? Do you give it a chance at a life, regardless of what kind of life it is? Do you purposely bring a child into the world when you know that it will have specific challenges and limitations in functioning? And if you do decide to give it a chance, where do you draw the line - Down's syndrome is ok, something else is not ok? I'm not sure what I would do. Definitely read the article.
