A person born very heavily handicapped sued the doctor who made a mistake and didn't warn his mother early enough to allow the abortion. Considering his life of pain and the interdiction of euthanasia, he considered the doctor as responsible. The court agreed with him. A very diificult case[^], IMO

While that case is just daft I do remember one high school I went to where a teacher was arrested for taking jacks (corporal punishment, lashes, caning etc.) a bit too far. He caned one kid just above his arse and just below the middle of his back, and caned him so hard and for so long that the kid had to be hospitalised. Was horrific. And detention never taught me nuffing guvner, just how to slip a interesting book inside of the detention designated book... :rolleyes:

                    :laugh: Yeah and then they would each sue their own parents.

                      This has happened already! I think some severely mentally retarded or physically handicapped kid in Germany (?) sued his parents for not aborting him. I kid you not.
