I am asking a question on the basis. With regard to the threat of suicide, a psychiatrist has a difficulty in identifying whether a person is suicidal. There is another hurdle if it is to be deemed that a woman is suicidal because a woman is pregnant, and in an opinion of whether an abortion would make the case better or worse. This is not good medicine but rather signing away the life of an innocent person on the basis of an opinion.
