Of course, abortion, from a Buddhist viewpoint, is an act of killing and is negative, generally speaking. But it depends on the circumstances.
If the unborn child will be retarded or if the birth will create serious problems for the parent, these are cases where there can be an exception. I think abortion should be approved or disapproved according to each circumstance.

"Cameron said..." are snippets of real life comments made by my 11 year old son who happens to have Down Syndrome. I hope that they make you reflect on our every day struggles as humans and the world that we live in but with a smile on your face. ¨Cameron dijo...¨ son comentarios breves hechos por mi hijo de 11 años, quien tiene síndrome de Down. Espero que les hagan reflexionar sobre las luchas diarias que tenemos como humanos y el mundo en el que vivimos pero con una sonrisa.
