New Jersey is among 24 states that allow parents to sue their doctors for “wrongful life” and among only three that permit children to sue for “wrongful birth.” Both types of suits seek money from doctors whose alleged failure to warn about possible problems with the child in utero deprived the parents of the choice to abort the child. https://www.bergen.com/news/legallw200108192.htm
A state bill that would have required tough new warning labels for condoms sold in California has been pulled from consideration in the Legislature by its Republican author. Battin pulled the bill so he could try to address concerns raised by opponents on the Assembly Health Committee. The legislation, passed unanimously by the state Senate, would have made California the first state to require more detailed condom warnings than those required by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration – warning that condoms do NOT guarantee safe sex. https://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-000067047aug18.story
