That's a tough decision, and one that I hope none of us ever has to make.
It would depend on the birth defect or illness. If the child had such severe problems that it was likely to be stillborn or live a short, pain-filled life and not survive to adulthood, then I probably would terminate the pregnancy. If the problems were less severe, I probably would not terminate. But where do you draw the line between severe and not?
Plus, you have to consider that doctors aren't perfect. You could end up aborting when the child could have led a near-normal life, or not aborting and then having a child who lives a short, painful life.
