would depend on the severity of the disability and the ability for them to have a good quality of life

Well I’m not having kids regardless, this poll needs more options. But if I was planning on having kids I’d say it doesn’t matter/ I’ll keep my child

It definitely depends but the child would have a worse quality of life overall with any disability and if it's severe could require life long care

Depends. Will they likely suffer (without much hope of improving and having a decent quality of life) if I proceed with the pregnancy? If yes, then I would abort. If no, then absolutely not. Personally ✨not a fan of eugenics✨ *answering this question as what I’d do in the future when I’m ready and wanting to have kids. Highly unlikely for me to get pregnant right now because I’m very consistent with my birth control and not very sexually active, but if I did, I’d have an abortion no matter what.

I have a mental and physical disability, so does my partner. I’d be suprised if something didn’t happen

I’m not having kids but like if I was planning on having a baby I wouldn’t abort it for being disabled but it might abort itself
