1.)Whatever it is you think you're arguing, I am advocating that, because prenatal exposure to harmful substances causes irreparable brain damage, fetuses should be afforded protections from maternal substance abuse under states' child abuse laws.
2.)You are completely unable to comprehend my posts, apparently. I never suggested "you think it's okay," what I'm addressing is that you apparently are insisting nothing be done to intervene when it's happening. It would be similar to saying "I think abusing children is wrong, but we should leave the abusers alone out of respect for their rights."
I've reiterated my position countless times in this thread and you're still having trouble figuring it out, apparently. My position is that fetuses should be protected from their mothers' substance abuse and some sort of intervention and liberty restriction/suspension is warranted to prevent further permanent brain damage to the babies addict mothers are carrying.
There is nothing whatsoever "illogical" about that. You just don't agree with it, for some bizarre and unsubstantiated reason or another.
1.) i know what i was arguing you seemed to drift and drift further way, i said pages ago, using drugs while prgenant is wrong, that doesnt translate into offering unsound mind people sterilization though. They are not the same.
2.) can only go by what you say, write more clear :shrug:
wrong again, im fine with steps being taken but NOT money offers to addicts. Nothing has changed, only the stuff you wrongly assume.
3.) i understand it fine, Im fine with punishing pregnant women who abuse drugs, offering money to addicts for sterilization is 100% illogical as i already factually substantiated
