Yeah, thats what I think too.
But I don't think I should have the right to tell anyone when they can/cannot have children. I mean , yeah theres a chance that a child could be born with Down's ...but hell, theres ALWAYS a chance that your child will be born with something! If you look at the probablity of things going wrong then noone would have children.
I had a child young, I was 20 when I gave birth. There is a risk of complications when the mother is too young also....so should someone tell me that I don't have the right to have MY child because I'm "too young" or not able to provide it with a 300,000 house, and private schools and a pony? You get into a tricky area when you start to try to tell people what they can and cannot do.
And if you want to do that, maybe we should make men over a certain age get vasectomies also. Because its kind of sexist that men can pretty much father until they die.
