Response to “Abortion and Assent” by Rosamond Rhodes (CQ Vol 8, No 4)
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 02 March 2001
Abstract
Abortions are legally permitted in most Western societies if there is a reasonable expectation that the child, if born, would be physically or mentally disabled. Even late-term abortions, which would not be allowed in the case of healthy fetuses, are accepted on the basis of foreseen disability.
