Wouldn't the risk of possible emotional damage to that child be far too great a risk to even consider allowing her birth?
It's also easy to kill. Easier, in fact. Stop worrying about emotional damage. Most claims of emotional damage these days are purely to get attention. There is usually no real emotional damage, and the reason people usually respond to such claims is because they like the idea of having a "calling."
