Do you think it is right to stunt your childs growth on purpose?

I read that article, and I agree that it is not right. I think the parents are incredibly selfish. The child does not have much potential mentally, and they to go and rob her only other growth potential. If they want things easier, maybe they should have just put her to sleep, forever - and to be quite honest, it is probably better for everyone. WHY KEEP SOMEONE LIKE THAT ALIVE?
