If I found out of a high probability of a serious abnormality at an early stage of pregnancy, I would consider an abortion, with input and consent from my partner of course. However if the foetus is more well developed in the later stages, heart beat developed, etc, I would definitely keep the baby.
Some of the most prominent and exceptional human beings are disabled and some born so, to name a few - Nick Vujicic, Stephen Hawking and Frida Kahlo. I've never had anything against people with physical disabilities and it won't start with my unborn child.
Everyone has some type of disability anyways, if not physical, there are other types of arguably even more crippling disabilities - social, mental, spiritual, verbal, emotional, etc. Life is what you decide to make of it.
Same. I grew up with a severely autistic cousin. He can't string words together and we have to repeat things a couple of times before he understands anything. What helped was when we read up on his condition and tried to understand all his "odd" behaviours. He brings his own unique joy to our family, I can't think of it without him.
Would be able to abort your child if was to be disabled

You say you don’t have any issues with people who suffer from physical disabilities, but what about intellectual disabilities?
