It may seem a little strange but the only thing I want is healthy kids. There's so many arguments and things to think about over this subject, and I've been through them all since I was a kid myself.
What if one if my unborn kids is known to have some crippling or mental disease? I couldn't possibly get rid of it, not if it was one of my own, but I don't want to raise a kid with the extra problem those kind of things can bring about.
It sounds really harsh, I know, but I don't think I could care for a kid day after day, year after year, for the rest of my and their lives. I want to be able to everything a normal dad does with his kids, to play games and teach them wise stuff they'll always think off and say "my dad taught me that".
But if my kid can't even remeber who I am, can't even speak to me and tell me anything, or me him, I just couldn't cope.
I was wondering whether parents with kids with these conditions, down to behavoirial problem meaning they'll always act liek kids, really do manage. Do they always think that it could have been so different, it could have been better than it is?
Or do they have so much love for the own child they overlook the condition or disease and just look with love.
I'm just not sure I could, and it scares me a little that I could be so cold and harsh. Please don't accuse me of being 'disablilty-ist' or whatever it is, Im not.
I'm just considering my own feelings when faced with the problem with my own kids, the people I've created.
I just really think i couldn't cope, I want healthy kids, and it's the only thing that worries me.
I know the odds of something like this happening are so slim, its really not likely to happen. But they're still there, and it still could happen.
I don't think I could give up my life, my jobs, my friends, to spend my days looking after my child who can't do anything for themselves.
It probably sounds really selfish and inconsiderate.
But it scares me.

Sorry if I got all confused, I wrote it on the spot. And I've got myself all worried.
It is a tricky one, nobody could really say what they would do or how they would cope until it happens. Some say they are lucky though.
Sometimes you get more of a chance to be a proper parent as they depend on you so much, there is no room to let them down or miss out on important things.
Don't stress about it though, just wait and see if it ever happens and then deal with it then.
