February 6, 2017/0 Comments/in Ableism, Later Abortion /by Monica Snyder

In the UK, abortion is legal up to 24 weeks typically—but in cases where the fetus has disabilities, the woman can obtain abortion at any time throughout pregnancy. Recently a UK lawmaker with disabilities, Lord Kevin Shinkwin, spoke out about this double standard: I can see from the trends in abortion on grounds of disability […]

Ableism, False Compassion, and Abortion

October 7, 2016/0 Comments/in Ableism /by Guest Blogger

The author at the March for Life [Today’s guest post is by Rebecca Stapleford.] A common trope of the pseudo-progressive idealization of late term abortion performed on disabled fetuses is this notion that it is a loving choice, the best choice for the child, who would assuredly be born into unimaginable suffering otherwise. Writer Miranda […]

Dear Jezebel: Real friends don’t count chromosomes.

July 16, 2013/12 Comments/in Ableism, Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

According to the Washington Times, there was a couple planning to abort their child diagnosed with Down syndrome. A priest made a deal with the couple–if he could find a good home for the baby before their state’s deadline for late-term abortions, the couple would not abort. The priest’s church reached out through Facebook for […]
