yes - abortion, selling, throwing away like a garbage, etc. 
no don't think like that. it's not that some countries place a little value on human life. it's just what the life is when it comes to wealth and poverty.
it turns my stomach and breaks my heart when parents are forced to discard their babies. the worst part... I'm pretty sure it hurts them much more than mine. life's just too damn cruel in poor country and it's just much crueler to raise a child in an environment if parents knew it won't grow up well. so they're actually doing their babies a favor from lifetime of misery and horror.
in this country... I'm glad that we have ascended to where all people get a second chance in life.
