Are you okay with the govt forcing people to abort children?
    #23786225 - 10/30/16 04:51 PM (7 years, 2 months ago)

Let's say we have a mother named Sarah who is addicted to meth and is pregnant. And obviously, as a result, her kid will most likely have some cognitive detriments for the rest of his/her life. Would you say its fair for the govt to force her to get an abortion?

I'm surprised that drinking/smoking while pregnant is legal. I think its fair to force someone to abort their kid in this specific scenario

the whole "let's legalize drugs" thought process is because drugs effect only the user. but drinking while pregnant is akin to forcing alcohol down a 1 year old's throat

what kind of twisted morality are you using to justify aborting people just because theyre going to be mentally subnormal?

I think this is appropriate. You should realistically have to pass a standardized test to be able to have a child.

If these 'mothers' cared they would adopt instead
most of them do it because it's a status thing to have a fatherless home

lol no. Because you are bringing another being in this world and forcing it to not have the ability to communicate or live a full life

I see no issues? I mean if one of you guys walked in to me giving scotch to a baby in his baby bottle, would it be fair to say I am unfit parent?

you do realise that if we're going to make arbitrary judgement calls on people's intelligence then i could just as easily say that you should have been aborted?

'Unfortunately' not everything can be regulated with too much ease. As they say, freedom isn't free. Sometimes you have to make concessions in society to keep things relatively equal and relatively fair (within reason), and that includes allowing people who probably shouldn't become parents.

It will be a few centuries before the world is on board with reproductive eugenics. Right now it's not morally okay. I personally disagree with eugenics myself for the time we live in.

fair point. But then should we arrest the mother? perhaps take the kid into govt custody?

There's no real evidence that heroin causes autism, or that any illegal drugs cause retardation or any of these birth deficits that you're claiming.

The only side effects that have been scientifically established are low birth weight, premature delivery, and placental disruption. Everything else is mere speculation.

This is simply bad science to force abortions based on a possibility that hasn't been proven.

Arrest the mother for what? Doing methamphetamine?

We already do that.
