Document Summary
Romantic age: steinbach will also be covered, asch"s position on genetic testing for disabilities it supports discrimination and there is an idea that there is more of an openness for people with disabilities. If there is genetic testing to prevent disabled from being born = discrimination because it seems like there is a bias against it: is it inherent to the test or inherent to the society that allows it. Wants a less biased presentation of the test for people by their doctors. Its important to go back to old theories every once in a while. Natural rights approach: you created it therefore it is rightfully yours. They counsel to abort the child and talk about their lack of capacities. One sided counselling only the negative side of the disability. Doesn"t consider the experience of the parents raising the child or from people with disabilities: capacities.
