Sure. Here's one... And another... -- this case went up to the Supreme Court.

To my mind, a woman's responsibility during pregnancy is "whole hawg or none" -- that is, if she decides to become a mother and not abort her child, she has a fundamental responsibility to do her level best to provide for that child. That includes doing everything possible to provide a safe, secure and healthy start for that baby. No alcohol, no drugs. (My mom even gave up caffeine when she was pregnant with me! The woman is a saint!)

I am pro-choice. MAKE the choice, and then live by your decision.
