Advances in tests to check for genetic conditions during pregnancy have raised concerns that this will lead to more terminations of foetuses that will or are likely to have congenital disabilities when they are born. Although DPA respects and asserts the legal right of parents to choose whether to proceed with a pregnancy, medical health professionals need to ensure that that they provide balanced and informed advice about the experience of having a child with a disability. If the medical health professionals present screening results that indicate the foetus will have a congenital disability and only share negative medical advice about the experience of being a family with disabilities, it is less likely that the mother and/or family will proceed with the pregnancy. DPA strongly recommends that healthcare professionals are trained to give screening results in a balanced, and not merely negative, manner. The parents should also be offered information from disability support groups or organisations if the test results show that the foetus has a congenital impairment. They can then make an informed decision that is not biased by the medical model of disability, which sees disability as a condition inherent in the individual to be cured if possible.
