You are also very quick to say adoption is the best alternative to abortion?


It is the best alternative. Unfortunately, the reasons for foster care for a child like this are often complex and difficult and set the child up for a lifetime of failure. Despite enormous inputs of energy and no real fault on the part of the families who try to graft the children into their unit.

The judge said the question was whether what has been diagnosed as an autism spectrum disorder makes Depa “incompetent to proceed under the fairly low standard of competency." Perkins cited a report from a psychologist who testified for the defense, pointing to a part where “(Depa) says 'But that’s not going to work. They have video evidence against me.’" "That shows in my mind a depth of understanding not only the nature of the charge and the consequence of that, but who is doing what and where,” Perkins said. The competency evaluation ordered by Perkins in March concluded Depa was competent and the legal case against him could proceed.

There comes a time when what's best for the "child" becomes totally irrelevant.

This "child" has reached that point.

Needs to be put in a secure environment for life where he can't hurt innocent people.

Would adoption have been a better option than abortion in this case?

my question is, why should this person be allowed to continue to live given the diagnosis?


I hope I am interpreting your question correctly. Every person has the right to Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness until they are deemed a danger to society in a court of law. A diagnosis of Oppositional defiant disorder or Intermittent explosive disorder doesn't mean they shouldn't be allowed to live. Most respond well to Applied Behavior Analysis therapy and will have less violent outbursts as they grow older. A small fraction will outright reject behavioral change because of the established reward system. Violent behavior will ensue they get what they want, whether they take it by force or given out of fear. As adults that small fraction cannot function in society, but they have the right to do so until they commit a crime. A free society cannot punish on a maybe.
