You may remember the case of that disabled child in Canada for whom the parents obtained permission from a court to stop her growth by chemical and surgical means. I was very unhappy with the story when it came out, but I did not know enough, and I thought it better not to criticize the parents when I did not know what they had been through or what the medical prospects really were.
This woman, on the other hand, has every right to speak out on the subject; and I am glad to see that my inchoate sense of disapproval has sound reasons to exist.
