Radical "Elective" Surgery on Disabled Child
The parents of a severely mentally and physically disabled 9 year old girls have opted for radical surgery designed to keep her small and more "manageable". She will be basically "frozen" at her current growth level of 4' 5" and 65-75 lbs. The "treatment" includes high doses of Estrogen as well as the removal of her uterus, breast tissue and depending on the article you choose, her appen dix as well.
Some are crying Eugenics, but I don't see it based on my understanding that she would never have been able to have her own child anyway, so preventing her from "breeding" in this case isn't relevant.
Any Opinions anyone?.
choose your article from here google search results, or go with the one i picked from Scientific American
