The Alabama Supreme Court ruled Friday that frozen embryos are people and someone can be held liable for destroying them, a decision that reproductive rights advocates say could imperil in vitro fertilization (IVF) and affect the hundreds of thousands of patients who depend on treatments like it each year.
Frozen embryos are viable for at least 10 years (an upper limit hasn't been established). So let's say that and embryonic 'person' has been frozen for ten years before being implanted in a uterus. According to Alabama, this is a ten year old person being implanted.
Does this mean that, on the eighth anniversary of its birth, this person can legally marry, drive a car, enter into contracts, purchase a firearm, join the military, etc?
