I think these people are too narcissistic to care about the kids suffering. It's all about showing everyone online what good, life-affirming fundies they are. The kid itself is just a prop. Plus it's not like they have to spend years caring for a kid destined to die shortly after birth.Bosco? Bosco is a dog name.
I will never, ever understand why these crazy fundies think that being born to suffer and die is somehow better or more comfortable than abortion, which can basically be euthanasia in utero. Shit, if I was pregnant with a fetus with a devastating diagnosis that would lead to suffering (and yes, more often than not, trisomy 21 is one of those diagnoses), I'd schedule myself for an abortion during a propofol nap. I'm unconscious and anesthetized, fetus is unconscious and anesthetized, it knows no pain. No suffering.
It used to be that certain diagnoses were considered "incompatible with life," and the only ethical treatment was comfort care. Now people are sticking G-tubes, central lines, and tracheostomies in kids who have no chance of a meaningful existence. It is one thing to put a tracheostomy in a kid who's suffered a catastrophic illness or injury from which they can recover. It is QUITE another to put one in a kid who never did and never will breathe on their own.
It's even more attention and asspats than a healthy kid for a fraction of the work.
