It's not eugenics, because Down syndrome is not inherited. There is no Down's genes to eliminate. Terminating down syndrome babies doesn't reduce the rate of Down syndrom in the next generation, and nobody is doing it for that goal.

Down syndrome can totally be inherited. If a mother has Down syndrome, the risk of passing the genetic condition onto their future children is 35% to 50%.

		Only a few percent of Down’s syndrome cases result from Robertson translocations and may be inherited. If the mother carries the translocation, the rate of recurrence isn’t much more than 10%. If it’s the father, it’s significantly less.
