Wasn't said to me personally, but when my mom was pregnant with my younger sibling, she was at church and two old ladies were walking within earshot behind her. They said she should get an abortion because "what if its defective?" I was my moms only child at the time.

I'm just legally blind in my right eye and visually impaired in my left. And I was 4 fucking years old.

After my mom gave birth to my youngest (mixed) sibling, one of the old guys at our church asked how she gave birth to an n word.
