  • No. I would argue your morally obliged to not have a disabled child (if possible). But then people would say thats just eugenics with extra steps.

    • If your decision to abort is because the fetus will be a redhead, that's "planned breeding", not "eugenics".

      The sine qua non of eugenics is a state mandate.

      • Semantics. Also sounds like eugenics with exrra steps, the state cant mandate but it can provide incentives. Ie is china paying certain races for having children and not other races "planned breeding" or "subtle eugenics"?

        • The state is not involved in your decision to not have ginger kids. Your decision not to have ginger kids is not eugenics.

          The state providing incentives for behavior is a mandate. The state providing incentives for not having ginger kids is eugenics. Not "subtle eugenics". Not "planned breeding". Eugenics.

    • this is kind of ridiculous. do you realize how broad a term "disability" is? my parents have poor eyesight and need glasses. are they bad people for having kids when they knew we would inherit that?

        Well op didnt define it but i would assume everyone draws the line at a different place for the purposes of this thought experiment.

        are they bad people for having kids when they knew we would inherit that?

        Thats something between ur parents and god (and by god i dont literaly mean i god i mean whatever morality or personal philosophy they hold themselves to).

        If u want/can go ask them what they think about the idea i recon it would be interesting to hear.
