Your views on drug use during pregnancy

I thought this would make for an interesting debate.

What are your views on recreational drug use during pregnancy?


Some food for thought:

Should mothers who endanger their unborn child(ren) through drug use be punished by law? If so, how?

How is it to be determined what drugs are acceptable (health-wise) to use during pregnancy and which ones not? This is easy with medicinal use of drugs (there are clearly defined Pregnancy Categories of drugs), but recreational use is a more complex issue.

If a woman has the right to abort a fetus, should she have the (moral/legal) right to harm it non-fatally or even fatally through drug use?

Should women abusing alcohol during pregnancy be punished? Although we all know about fetal alcohol syndrome, it is perfectly legal for pregnant women of legal drinking age to drink as much as they want, as often as they want.

An excellent in-depth paper on the topic for further reading: http://www.drugs-forum.com/forum/loc...4048&catid=105
