If 25% are naturally aborted within the first 6 weeks, are the mothers tried in court for chromosomal abnormality and a court to determine if she could have prevented it through better diet, supplements, etc.?
Is a court to decide if a mother is fit to be a parent if she cannot even take care of herself and subsequently the fetus? If so, how? If not, why doesn’t this new citizen have the right to protective custody, and then how? Since the court might be interested in giving citizen rights to a zygote, is the court interested in the negligence of a fetus? If so, how do they prosecute?
What if the zygote embeds in the Fallopian tube and turns fatal to the mother. Who is responsible for her death?
If giving rights to cells is what some seek as fair then I ask; how can it be consistent on every level? -
