Excellent point, Hillary.
Let's not forget that, in the not-so-distant past, many children were also ostracized if their parents were of different religions or different ethnicities/nationalities.

If we start down the road of determining which types of couples should or shouldn't have children...... well, let's just say that's a frightening notion.
