TY - JOUR T1 - Wrongful life: some of the problems. JF - Journal of Medical Ethics JO - J Med Ethics SP - 69 LP - 73 DO - 10.1136/jme.13.2.69 VL - 13 IS - 2 AU - A N Liu Y1 - 1987/06/01 UR - http://jme.bmj.com/content/13/2/69.abstract N2 - The author considers that some of the reasonings used by both the American and English courts against recognising a wrongful life claim are far from persuasive. However, there may indeed be strong public policy reasons against judicial recognition of such a claim. If judicial remedy is not possible for children in wrongful life situations, society ought to assist them in the alleviation of some of the practical problems caused by deformities. ER -
