What the fu**?
I didn't know women had a cooling off period of 18 months where they can just fu** off their children. That's disgusting.
Infanticide is still a crime, it's just not murder / manslaughter.
All things said I think it's still a pretty archaic / sexist / unjust law. The only thing going for it would be if it actually results in more convictions than if it did not exist - as in, people would get off on murder due to insanity or something.
But I think it is still s**t because it devalues a child's life just because they are young. If you are genuinely of unsound mind and don't understand what you are doing, then you are not guilty, no matter the age of the victim. If this is not the case, I don't see why a lesser charge or lesser penalties should apply because the child is younger and the accused is a woman.
