Yeesh.
I'd be all for surgical sterilization of a profoundly incapacitated child at an appropriate age, if that's what the parents felt was best. But all the rest of the stuff that goes beyond sterilization... it's just creepy. And while they are (perhaps understandably) trying to avoid a particular set of problems here, I can't help but think that they're just trading them in for a different set of problems (medical and otherwise) that they just can't imagine now.
