1. Do you think it’s bad to have regulations on drinking while you’re pregnant?Forty-three US states have regulations around the practice.
2. There’s no federal laws.. so much like Roe V Wade going bye bye, this is a state issue and you can leave to go to one that allows it if you have the driving desire to expose a child to permanent damage via fetal alcohol syndrome.
I’m going to assume that you, being on the left, are uncomfortable having states be allowed to reject your stances, and there’s no authoritarian federal mandates you can use to force everyone to obey your theory/opinion.
24 states and the District of Columbia consider substance use during pregnancy to be child abuse under civil child-welfare statutes, and 3 consider it grounds for civil commitment.
Illegal substances? Drugs? They’re already illegal, so…25 states and the District of Columbia require health care professionals to report suspected prenatal drug use, and 8 states require them to test for prenatal drug exposure if they suspect drug use.
Are you whining that women can’t use drugs while pregnant? You think it’s good to expose and addict pre birth children to drugs?
