Souls Choosing the Lives They Are Born Into

I’ve read some people claim we choose the lives we are born into.
I find that claim hard to believe. I find it fictitious.
For example, who would choose to come into this life as an aborted baby
or a person born deaf and blind or with a terminal cancer?
I could see people or souls choosing to come into this life
with tons of advantages and with the silver spoons of wealth
or with illness-free charmed lives and with beautiful faces,
beautiful bodies and genius IQs.
But who would choose to come into this life as a child destined
to be sold or kidnapped into prostitution?
I know a bit about the soul choosing lives theory.
Supposedly we choose good or bad lives to better our spiritual growth,
but I just don’t believe we have that pre-birth option.
And if you choose to one up me and say I just don’t get it,
I respectfully think you don’t get it either. Realistically, how could
you or I really know what happens before we are born?
You’re “belief” could be right as could mine.
Whatever the truth is, I hope you and I have
better lives if we have to come back here again.
