In deleting old e-mails, I came across something I posted months ago and never saw a reply. Any of our legal experts care to respond at this time? It would be useful. >>Subject: Question for JDs On Fri, 3 Mar 2006 21:14:26 +0200, Donna Ron wrote: "Much discussion and even court cases have taken place regarding the issue of a pregnant mother smoking [illicit drugs] and the effects that this has on her fetus." Donna your above statement made me wonder: In which month during pregnancy does a woman become legally responsible for exposing her baby if she smokes illicit drugs? Can the JDs on this listserv enlighten me? Is it after the point where she could legally have an abortion?<< TIA Lee Galasso, MS, IBCLC, RLC *********************************************** To temporarily stop your subscription: set lactnet nomail To start it again: set lactnet mail (or digest) To unsubscribe: unsubscribe lactnet All commands go to [log in to unmask] The LACTNET mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's LSMTP(R) mailer for lightning fast mail delivery.
