Would you terminate a pregnancy if the pre-natal test was positive for DS?

Yes. Ignore, even, the realistic issues that parents have to face in that situation -
Down's Syndrome is a terrible life that I wouldn't wish on anyone.

When my mom was pregnant with me, my parents were told that I was going to have down syndrome and abortion was put on the table. My mom chose not to terminate the pregnancy.

I was born without down syndrome.

If the fact that people with DS are people is somehow not enough, the fact that testing isn't accurate should be.

I am not against abortion. I am against abortion solely based on some possible negative disorder that the fetus may or may not even have.

What reason do you think it's acceptable to terminate a pregnancy, then?

Let me be clear: I'm saying (or trying and possibly failing to say) that someone who wants a child and plans on carrying the fetus to term but then is faced with the possibility of having a baby with DS should not have an abortion solely based on that diagnosis due to it possibly being incorrect. If this hypothetical person still went through with an abortion, then I'd support her right to do so, even if I objected to her decision on moral grounds.

Sure. But, to you, in what situation, then, is abortion not morally objectionable? Only accidental pregnancy or rape etc.?
