sigh. disabled people are allowed to have kids. i hate that this is debated
people, even other disabled ppl sometimes, always argue its cruel. “what if they end up like you? its cruel to do that to a child.”
our existence and the existence of any biological children disabled people have isnt a fucking tragedy. if our kids are disabled too, then thats literally fine. some of you think youre such hot disability advocates and then turn around and parrot eugenicist ideas and its so fucking frustrating to hear.
anyone can have a disabled child. ANYONE. abled people are fully capable of having disabled children, but theyre not told to avoid having kids, or coerced into/forcibly sterilized, or have their children taken even if theyre fully capable of caring for them. yet because a disabled person could pass on a disability, the idea that we could want biological children is suddenly “cruel?” is that the hill youre going to die on? fucking analyze why you think its a tragedy for a disabled child to exist. think about why you hate the idea of disabled people reproducing
abled ppl are encouraged to reblog bc a lot of you need to hear this but i dont wanna hear yr fucking thoughts on the matter i swear to god
Not letting disabled people have kids is eugenics
