Quote:What actions do you suggest would morally encompass resposibility to the subject (fetus) in this situation?To avoid causing harm (to the limit of harm to ones self, of course), to cause the least harm (your actions would be modified by your situation, of course). That's the tricky bit with moral subjects in the first place (and the question that moral subject and agency get trotted out for most often).
Quote:regarding the malpractice-- that only applies if I were treating her in a medical capasity and not the broad sense the question was asked - sooo want to try again?Ah,. so you mean you non-consentually caused a women to abort outside of medical treatment? Yeah, probably assault, as has been said. Oh..wait, wait, maybe attempted murder.....could have poisoned the poor girl(but maybe it was just bad fish, and then it'd be civil, not criminal).
