We can pause and acknowledge that life (and what that means) will change, while also acknowledging that for many it will be the easiest decision in the world for it to change.

I think it's a tool that can be used for great good. But also can be used for eugenics. That's why I pasted the link. It's a slippery slope. What a parent will do for their kids knows no bound.
