this can't be real. It's insane! a 16 year old baby? nuts
i don't think it is fake (though there is always the possibility) there was a kid at my high school (he graduated last year) who was in the "Life skills" (developmentally retarded) class. his head was fully developed and looked like he was about 18 years old, but he had to be wheeled around in a stroller because his body had never grown past infant stage, only his head was normal. though I do not know whether he had mental issues as well, it is possible that this girl has the same condition, her body is simply not growing at the normal rate.

From my understanding, she is aging, just very, very slowly. Does this mean she could live to be over a thousand? Or will she die at what would be a normal age, but still only have the mindset of a child and body of a toddler?

If she has the mindset of a toddler, she's probably unaware of most her day to day life. I know when I was a toddler, the whole world was a truly amazing place. Glad no one decided to give up on me and just put me down. Yes, she could be living a nightmare, but she could also be living a truly amazing life in her own little world where everything is magical and beautiful. Only she would know for sure.

Why do you, and the article, sound so excited about this? This is a new, terrible, completely life-ruining birth defect. Don't you think her parents wish she was a normal kid?

Ok... so we have a mentally retarded 16 year old with a deformed body of a new born? How the fuck is that a miracle? Its horrible if you ask me.
Thats what I was thinking, imagine, that many extra years as a teenager?! Gah! Kind of cool if she lives to be physically and mentally healthy. But 16 years?!

This sounds sort of like the character Ditto in the book Supernatural. Except it was experimentation that caused it, and it was more of arrested development. He looked about 6 and was 28 with a medical degree.
I was just thinking that. Can't wait for the Second book. Did you notice how he never actually did the thing he got his name from?

That sounds horrible, if I were the parents I would have killed her a long time ago.
Shut up, it's not like she's in continuous pain and suffering. There would be no mercy behind that. Stupid comment.
I'm sorry but who made you the judge on what's right or wrong? She's not growing at all and is mentally retarded, I can only imagine the hell she must go through each day.
Wow, Seriously? She is at the state of a toddler, sure she is stuck there, but its not like she knows she is stuck at being a toddler. Killing her would be basically murder, there is no sympathy or mercy involved, smypathy would be something along the lines of donating money, or something, killing her sounds down right evil. Your calling someone else out saying they have no sympathy when your the guy who jumps straight to murder. I argee the planet is over-populated, but if we kill off every single human with a disability, well, then we are no better than animals. That would make the world a much worse place. Population controlled should be done through the controlling of sex.. But I bet that bugs you more than genocide, doesn't it?

It probably would, for that's nature in a nutshell.
As for the baby, the best we can hope is to try and research this anomaly, they should start by checking the family trees or something...

I believe this, I've heard of this girl before and seen footage elsewhere. It's such a strange case and while its horrifying its also amazing. Her parent's reaction, calling her the fountain of youth and such are probably the actions of people in pain trying to find some sort of silver lining in an unbeleiveable situation.

Its a shame no one can figure out what is going on with that girl for both her sake and for the realms of science.

When she dies of old age she'll stay a baby. What a horrible way to go.
If she doesn't age, dying of old age is kind of out of the question, no?

[optimism]
How great would it be if she just turned out to have an incredibly long lifespan, became an adult somewhere near 100 and lived to be 400?
[/optimism]

I geuss it's the Terri Schiavo argument in that we don't know if they truly want it or not. She won't grow up to live a fulfilling life, won't find love. But at the same time she could live a perfectly safe life.

Also, I when I said that I had the upmost sympathy for her, but neither I nor you have actually seen her so we have no idea if she's in a good condition or not.

And I'm not saying to kill every person with a disability, I'm saying we might want to as there is next to no hope of her living a better life.

And when did this get to population control? I don't care for sex, and I don't believe in genocide.
Ok, ok, I did make a bit of a jump there I apologize. I do believe you made a bit of a jump yourself, and to an extent, if she was in physical pain I might agree with your rash statement. You are correct in saying that she will not experience a normal life, but like you also said, she is going so live a long (and no i don't mean super-human long) life unless this anomaly cause unforseen problems. So in a sense its a bit of evening the scales of life, would you not agree?

P.S. I jumped to population control because I figured some might bring that up, so I was bracing myself.

This is downright impossible!

I'd say send her off for medical research! That's right.
Send her off for research, so we can learn about this. Much valuable knowledge can stem from her being studied. Possibly even a cure.

She's going to die as a "child" anyways, might as well make something out of her lifespan.

Then we must make her breed with superior males and attempt to use this being to increase the lifespan of the human race. The only monkey wrench that could go into this plan is long teenage time..... and teens GENERALLY get frisky.... Overpopulation in no time.
