It's not that I think my parents would've been swayed by Singer's argument. They would never have considered euthanasia, of course. It's just that my mother had such a hard time advocating for me, even as it was.
I think it would have been even harder for her to fight for my rights if there had been people in the background whispering that I wasn't really a conscious being anyway.
