No, we don't do that. Most children would die without some kind of care, but we don't put them in prison if their parents are criminals. We make sure they are cared for by someone else.

(The systems for that are in terrible shape too, but that's a separate issue.)

Right. We place them with other adults such as grandparents, aunts/uncles, foster care, etc. I fail to see how this would work for fetuses.
