Sorry, but why is this Jonathan Strahan's opinion given any reference without a countering point? Judith Merrill's story is by no means "dated." It certainly shocked and disturbed me and is as timely now as at any point in the history of Man when the pain of a deformed child comes to light. The father was also in the process of strangling the baby who was able to converse and able to know that it was not wanted. Moment's before, it raced across the bed in an way that impressed the father. Having no limbs is a severe disability but the child still had a growing mind. The dilemma is a tortured one but even in that day when fathers would go mad and killed "mutant" children, this one had a growing intelligence. Such dilemmas are not out of date today, where parents are faced with births of special needs children who may have severe disabilities but still are living things with minds and hearts. I hardly think this subject and story is "dated." I thought about it and was affected by it long after having completed reading it.
