To take care of them no matter what?
What a crock of crap.
It's all about having the easy way out.
Richard, do I recall reading in one of your former posts that you do not have children?
I have children, but not special needs children, and certianly not in the extreme case of this poor girl and her family. NONE of us is EVER going to know what these people go through 24 hours per day, 365 days per year.
What good would come of this bedridden, almost vegetative child to begin to menstruate? She is never going to bear children, or have sex. She is never going to be more than she is right now. Why put her through that? Why put her parents through it? What could would come of her being several inches taller? She can't stand up. What could come of her being fifty pounds heavier? Answer - bedsores.
You are quick and harsh to judge things you know NOTHING about.

"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
