JUST IN: Nine of Ten Defected Babies Murdered Yearly

Women are increasingly putting off having babies until their thirties or forties. This has sparked a devastating trend. More babies with birth defects and genetic abnormalities are being conceived. Down syndrome is the most common major chromosomal abnormality, occurring in about 5,000 babies born each year in the United States. It is also estimated that one in three Down Syndrome babies are aborted every year.

Around nine in ten women across the globe who are told they are going to have a baby with the problem opt for a termination.

In England and Wales, the research shows that around 1,100 babies are aborted every year because of Down's syndrome, an increase from 300 in 1989/90. German women were least likely to report that they would undergo termination in the case of a fetal abnormality while Portuguese women were most likely to report that they would undergo a termination. In the US, 90% of Down Syndrome babies are aborted every year.

Down's syndrome support organisations are crying out for greater counseling impliments to decrease these precious babies from being murdered. They say that having a child with Down's can be rewarding and that the quality of life for those suffering from the condition has improved.

Doctors disagree and say that a lot of women aren't equipped or financially capable to take care of these babies and so abortion is a viable means to ending the enivitable suffering these parents will face in the future.

Prenatal screening for Down Syndrome and other birth abnormalities are a modern medical marvel and an enhancement for the life and welfare of baby and mom. A first-trimester screening test can reliably identify fetuses likely to be born with Down syndrome. More than 38,000 U.S. women every year undergo early testing -many fetuses with the common genetic disorder are diagnosed 11 weeks after conception. I had my children tested before they were born. I was grateful the good Lord blessed me with healthy children. But, I would have loved them no matter what and didn't feel murdering them because of some medical "flaw" was morally correct, if the tests had come back with ominous results.

Women over 40 years old are at a 16-fold greater risk of having a Down's pregnancy than a woman under the age of 25. My little sister is one of those who plans to wait well into her thirties before having a baby. I worry greatly for her and her future children's health everyday.

The research on aborted Down Syndrome Babies should be a wake-up call to policy-makers to focus more effort on improving education, healthcare and adult support for the rapidly growing population of citizens who have Down syndrome.

The media and the beauty magazines all display the eye of loveliness as having blond, silky hair, small petite bodies or ripply muscles (depending on your gender of course). One must be young and rich, well-educated and have a lot of material atainment. I can testify, as a public servant working with the public, that what may seem as lovely on the outside can cover the greatest ugliness on the inside! A person with serious birth defects and genetic abnormalities can be a picture of heaven, depending on your perspective on life. They can have as much value as the Wall Street broker if you are willing to look past the obvious physical differences.

It is estimated that there are approximately 60,000 people with Down's syndrome currently living in the UK. There are more than 400,000 people living with Down syndrome in the United States. In Canada, there are 40,634, Austria-10,218, Germany has 103,030 Down Syndrome people, France has 75,530, Spain has slightly fewer at 50,350, and China has a whopping 1,623,559.

In ancient Greece, babies with disabilities were left out in the elements to die. Years ago, people with Down syndrome often were housed in institutions. Launched by the educational reforms of the past quarter-century, they are increasingly finishing high school, living more independently and holding jobs.

It doesn't matter where you stand on abortion. Killing a person because they aren't deemed in your eyes as perfect is a sin! If you don't want your baby simply because they don't meet your specifications, there are a number of childless people who would find the baby perfect in their eyes.

With the statistics so high that a child will be born with Down Syndrome around the world, chances are likely that you have or know someone who has Down Syndrome.
