yeah well anyone drinking can kill or damage. its a bar.

the fact is that it is a pregnant woman, and youre debating weither or not to serve her, makes it an entirely personal debate.

dude you're 12.

edit: that was wrong of me to say. but still, if someone is juggling chainsaws, they obviously are skilled enough to be.

i have yet to hear a reasonable argument from you.

I am not condemning chainsaw juggling, however if my friend (who is drunk) decided to try this for the first time , I would like to think I would talk some sense into him.

Do you think it is OK for a women to drink whilst pregnant? Or it is just none of your business what she does?





By the way, that was sarcasm in the other thread. :jointsmile:

actually yeah, it is none of your business.

you arent her personal babysitter, and you arent here to make her choices for her. the fact is that she is a grown woman, and capable of making her own decisions.

and to humor your first comment..yeah if my friend was drunk, had no prior juggling experience..of course i wouldnt let him juggle chainsaws. that is common sense. darrgh.

The person the pregnant woman would be damaging is the child. It’s a debate of if you should intervene in a woman causing permanent physical and mental damage to her baby or should you stay out of it. I don’t know, maybe I’m missing your point.

my point is, its none of your business what the woman is doing, because it is her body.

and im not saying drinking doesnt do any harm. trust me i know what fetal alcohol syndrome is.

to get to the point and bottom line...it is a bar, it is your job to serve, and not to push consciencous, religious, or personal beliefs on anyone. period.

I wouldn't serve her. But I'd tell her that there was certainly nothing stopping her from having a drnink in the privacy of her own home, where the only potential liability would be that of herself and her unborn baby.

I also wouldn't serve her if she were drunk and apt to try and drive a car. Again, the liability issue.

I just can't help but think of it in the same way as seeing someone beat their kids.

if drinking whilst pregnant were child abuse, there would be a law against it already.

That's how we got the FDA-driven liquor labeling laws in the United States that warn that drinking alcohol may cause harm to a fetus. . . . because it is essentially considered a form of choice-based fetus abuse.

I can't help but feel a little bit sad right now.
