Yesterday, I read an article from the National Post: “When is twins too many?” I hope to write more on this topic in the future, but for now, let me summarize: a couple with one child discovered they were expecting twins. They decided, in light of their age, financial circumstances, and career goals, that bringing twins into the world would harm their family. And so they sought an abortion for one of the babies. According to the National Post, this practice of “selective abortion” is becoming more and more common. It began when women who used in-vitro fertilization techniques found themselves pregnant with triplets or more and decided that carrying all the babies to term would jeopardize the health of everyone involved.
