I am dismayed, but no longer shocked, at a recent ruling by a federal court against the federal government where a supposed administration of an abortion medication was inadvertently omitted in favor of a flu shot. The child was born with mental deficiencies of some sort and the parents were successful in a “wrongful life” suit where a $10 million judgement was ruled. I would say “What is this country coming to” but this has been used so much that it is well-worn out.

I’m not very familiar with abortifacients but aren’t these intended to be used very early in the pregnancy? If the parents had truly intended to abort their baby, why didn’t they just go through the (unfortunately) common procedure of killing it with sharp implements at an abortion provider after it became clear the pregnancy had not stopped? Seems like the parents figured they could profit off the birth.
