Should society should consider having a period AFTER birth in which the parents of an infant would have rights to have an infant humanely euthanized if it were suffering from one or more severe disabilities or deformities?

A slowly increasing group of people, like Professor Peter Singer, the Ira W. DeCamp Professor of Bioethics at Princeton University, are not only pro-abortion but, Singer has argued that society should consider having a period AFTER birth where parents of a severely deformed or disabled infant could decide to end its life. No one thinks twice when it comes to putting an animal out of its misery in under any circumstance. Many of which could easily be considered much more cognitively aware then a newborn infant. So the question is, Is it immoral to consider taking the life of a newborn infant to prevent its life being lived in misery?
And in my opinion it is not. If there is no chance at a fair life or the chance of ever being able to sustain their own life without constant care, why would it be so wrong to prevent all the pain and struggle before it happens?

The devaluing of human life to that of foods and animals ?
These " Bioethics " professors must have studied under Joseph Mengeles.
Yeah; we know you copied and pasted the part that makes sense.
It will be a tough battle to approve, but i do believe that if both parents give consent for whatever medical reason conflicts them then it should be a choice they are able to make.
I'm mixed. I would agree with euthanasia only if the baby is dying and in incredible pain. But I'm against it because killing someone like that not only needs to have the consent of the patient themselves, it also should be incited by that person. A baby can't do either of those things.
...So I guess I should've picked no.
What difference does it make at what age. If your mother was in a car accident and was suddenly brain dead, who you kill her?
