<sarcasm> I submit a modest proposal. We'll let a large surplus of females in Europe marry the large surplus of males in the East (where they do the same thing, because with only 1 child allowed, of course you want a boy), and everyone's happy. Unless the Chinese males are autistic..)
</sarcasm>

Don't let the US fundamentalists hear about this, because they'll take that ball and run with it...

Crude? CRUDE?! They're biasing males vs females for autism. I bet just one look at the WP userbase will tell you that the selection is generally even.

KRABZ, I don't deny that this is deeply disturbing. What I wrote in my post was descriptive of the method they were using--And would further caution against is confusing a description of someone's actions with an appraisal of another person's worth as human being. They aren't the same thing.

Well what I meant was that your post seemed to be underestimating the 'crudity' of that method. I suppose I should have added at the end "Now THAT'S crude."

Also, you spelt my username wrong. Looks like I may have to introduce KBABZ Awards again...

Don't generalise. I would love to have children; autistic or not. And I don't appreciate hearing that I, as a Briton do not deserve children.

Our window of opportunity is quickly closing if we do not create effective campaigns to counter the likes of Autism Speaks and Jenny McCarthy thousands of our unborn brothers and sisters will be killed because we stood around and did nothing! Their deaths would place blood on our hands as well, and I can tell you right now I don't want that blood on my hands, or any blood for that matter! What they are planning on doing is nothing more than sexist genocide! We can prevent it and we must because do think that any of us will find acceptance when society finds it acceptable to abort a child because they have autism? I don't think so, so I say we fight this and I don't mean next week, or tomorrow I mean now!

When in doubt, ask an autistic. Chances are, they're obsessed with what you need to know. :roll:

Autism Speaks will NEVER speak for me

Edit to Inventor. British people who are against having an autistic child should not be allowed to give birth. There problem solved.

Yeah I picked that username because I felt it was short, simple, and [u]easy to remember[/i]. About once a week I'm proven wrong, heheh.

are they trying to wipe out difference entirely? if they do that and get rid of any richness or variety then what kind of a world would this become?

why do people expect perfect kids?
perfection does not exist.

The reality of parenting topic

There will always be parents who, for whatever reason, are not brave enough to carry a hallenged child to term. By challenge i mean any condition that the parents decide is not right for them, including sex and gender. The more noble path is to take what you get and work with it. Not every life is so doomed to hardship that the fetus will be aborted. And remember that as terrible as this seems, it is ultimately the woman's decision whether or not to carry any fetus to term.

We in the West can still choose to have as many children as we want, of either sex. And we often choose to have children with multiple challenges, because we have faith in our medical advanes so that they will help the kids. Cures? There is no cure for autism. There is acceptance and understanding when we realize no life is perfect, whether AS NT or whatever. We take on the challenges we are able to work with.

Well, there are several other 'disabled*'/parents of disabled communities that are rather p****d off regarding the concept of designer babies. It would do the autistic community good to link up with a few if need be.

*I know some people's feelings regarding the issue that autism/aspergers is a disability and I know for some people the disability is merely cultural- not denying the validity of those individuals /or/ the people who see it differently.
