Because sterilizing ugly people is so hilarious and off-kilter, how could we not recognize the brill growing inside of you.

Smoking while pregnant is disgusting, but if you're going to illegalize that why not make it illegal to eat shitty food while you're pregnant? If interest of the fetus health is taken over rights of the parents, it should be known that the ingestion of poor foods can cause birth defects and a plethora of other lifelong health problems.
There's tons of things that can potentially cause birthdefects and health problems, including the poor health of the mother. I just wonder how far a law like this could stretch(that is, if it's interest is for proper fetal development), if it's going to be implemented.

I'm not sure if you can get lung cancer later in life from when your mother smoked while you were in the womb. That just seems strange to me, I think in that sense it's more a case of preexposure than anything(i really can't see how it could effect the health like that unless you had lung cancer all along and it was just dormant), if anything it would be the result of "Parenting" or learned habits. However, I could easily see a child being born with lung cancer or something like that.
