I have a question for a person who is Pro-Life

[rosends]

Okay, Rosends, ask your class this:

What if a woman is old, has cancer, or is VERY likely to produce a baby with health issues, yet they insist on becoming pregnant and carrying the child to term?

our discussion yesterday ended up calling forth a House episode in which a woman with cancer was pregnant and had to get chemo which would kill the child or die, herself. In your case, the woman knows beforehand that she will be putting the child in danger (slippery slope extension -- since the likelihood of birth defects increases after women reach a certain age). This is similar to a choice made by parents who both are carriers of the Tay Sachs gene. They are gambling that a child will not die. If they gamble wrong they consign the child to suffering and death. Would this be actionable?
