刚看到这个帖子,希望对LZ还有用。
澳洲关于堕胎和引产的法律规定,每个州都不一样,
而且法律也在变,没有以前限制得那么严格(很久以前澳洲堕胎都是违法的),
这导致了很多医生,其实都并不清楚最新的法律条文是什么。
从Wikipedia上截了几段:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortion_in_Australia
Victoria:
Until 2008, Victorian abortion law was based on the Victorian Crimes Act as interpreted by the Menhennitt ruling of 1969, in the case of R v Davidson. Under the ruling, abortions were legal if necessary to preserve the woman from a serious danger to her life or health – beyond the normal dangers of pregnancy and childbirth – that would result if the pregnancy continued, and is not disproportionate to the danger being averted. Sweeping changes to abortion laws were legislated in 2008 after Premier John Brumby announced "our existing laws are out of step with community sentiment."[7] Legislation to decriminalise abortion up to 24 weeks (with abortions after that time requiring two doctors to agree that it is appropriate, based on the women's current and future physical, psychological and social circumstances[8]) passed the Lower House 49–32 after a conscience vote. It then proceeded to the Upper House[9] where it was passed unamended (23 votes to 17).[10]
从08年开始,24周以下的堕胎和引产都是合法的了。 24周以上,需要有两个医生同意,而且要是基于 “孕妇现在或将来的 生理、心理健康和社会环境” 考虑。 所以,医生还是有充分的决定权的。
NSW:
Abortion law in New South Wales is primarily based upon the Levine ruling of 1971 (itself derived from the Victorian Menhennitt ruling of 1969), which declared abortion to be legal if a doctor found 'any economic, social or medical ground or reason' that an abortion was required to avoid a 'serious danger to the pregnant woman's life or to her physical or mental health' at any point during pregnancy. This was expanded by the Kirby ruling of 1994, which extended the period during which health concerns might be considered from the duration of pregnancy to any period during the woman's life. This arguably precludes any successful prosecutions for illegal abortions. Despite this, in 2006 Dr Suman Sood was convicted of two counts of performing an illegal abortion where she failed to enquire as to whether a lawful reason for performing the abortion did exist.[4][5]
新洲以前的法律,只要医生觉得会对孕妇在怀孕期间的经济、生理和心理健康有影响,都可以合法终止怀孕。 1994年,把可以作为合法堕胎和引产的理由的时间从怀孕期间扩展到妇女的整个人生。 这基本上已经把所有的终止怀孕的排出在非法终止怀孕的范畴。 注意:经济情况,也可以作为理由的!!
说白了,不是医生故意刁难你,就是他们自己无知。
换个医生,把Wikepedia上面的相关法律条文打印出来,
跟医生说明白,这个孩子生下来,对自己以后的精神方面的影响,
说到底,只要不犯法,这是你自己的事,自己的决定,不需要那些"道德模范"医生告诉你该怎么做!!
