Don’t do as I do, do as I say, Mitt announced by his hypocritical attitude towards abortion. They only want perfect children, it seems. Of course, Mormonism wants women to bear as many children as possible to perpetuate their numbers. I wonder, are their any disabled children in a Mormon family?? Is it flip flop or flop flip, again?

You are right In 1978 the only way to tell the sex of the baby was by amniocentis. I was 35 at the time, so my doctor required it of anybody who would have a higher chance of having a baby with downs syndrome. At least then they would have a choice and know what to expect. They could also tell the sex of the baby. So, I found about my baby was a boy in August before he was born in Dec of 78. And the amniocentis was not without some risk as well. They only had ultrasound machines in a few of the hospitals at that time. I think the doctor’s offices having these expensive machines is what drives up the cost of medical services.

Tagg Romney’s wife had first a daughter and then 2 sons before they turned to surrogacy for their last 3 children — all boys. What does it say that a family with one daughter and 2 boys would choose (in vitro allowing for sex selection) to have 3 more boys ? And why resort to such extreme and expensive (requiring Mitt’s funding) methods as in vitro and surrogacy when you already have 3 healthy children? Such extreme measures are usually used by childless and infertile couples desperate to have biological children.

This is a link to an interview with a prominent Professor who is also a Democratic Mormon woman, giving her personal experience with Bishop Romney’s feelings on abortion when the life of a Mormon mother is at risk. Many other interesting details as well.

No. What I have said is that there was not even any reliable way to determine the sex of a fetus prior to the mid-Eighties, nor any reliable method of pre-conception sex selection prior to the mid-Seventies, and that was only about thirty percent better than chance.
