Met a girl with Brachymetatarsiarecently, didn't find out she had it until late in the game, I like her that much that I could just ignore it but I'm wondering how much chance there is of her passing it on, there's no way I'd risk giving that to my kids

doesn't seem that terrible as far as disabilities go, honestly if it's just a relatively mild disfigured foot. but i understand, this is something for google search honestly though.

Tried that, surprised me how little info there is about how much chance there is of inheritance. There are just details about what it is and that or can be treated.

>there's no way I'd risk giving that to my kids
Is it really that terrible? Do you also check the medical history of all of your partners and their family? Would you stop dating a girl because she has several cases of diabetes, heart diseases and maybe cancer in her family?
Seems silly to base your personal relationship and happiness on "my kids that I may or may not have in the future will have an X percentage chance of developing Y disease".

Bringing children into the world when you know there is a high chance of them being defective is sinful

Yeah, but if his kids wanted to go into the military, they wouldn't be able to due to this abnormal condition.

I did google it, several times now, so if you found something please share because my google power level isn't the same as yours

Short answer: yes, it's hereditary.
That image creeps me out desu.

I realize its hereditary, I just wanted to know the chance of it reoccurring down the line. I guess it's better to just not take the risk.

I am a carrier for a shitty genetic condition so I know a little about how that feels.
From my quick google looks like Brachymetatarsia is connected to several hereditary conditions, so you need to talk to her and find out how likely it really is. But look there are so many treatments available now, you could replace her eggs with a healthy doner, you could do IVF and have the eggs screened for genetic issues, for me the 3 person baby is an option, there's even adoption. I'm of the opinion that if there's a genetic issue sort it as early in the line as you can not gamble with it like my mum did.

Breed her, OP.

How about we raise the disabled ones until they're ten and if they don't like living we kill them on the spot hmm?
