Hastings Cent Rep. 1986 Apr;16(2):15-20.
Suits that claim that a child would be better off never having been born often founder on conceptual and logical dilemmas. However, the correct interpretation of "wrongful life" does not require a comparison between existence and nonexistence. The New Jersey Supreme Court's decision in the Procanik case to limit damages to extraordinary medical expenses, barring recovery for pain and suffering, is a reasonable resolution.
那些声称孩子从未出生会过得更好的诉讼，往往会陷入概念和逻辑困境。然而，对“错误生命”的正确解释并不需要在存在与不存在之间进行比较。新泽西最高法院在普罗卡尼克案中做出的将损害赔偿限制在特殊医疗费用范围内、禁止对痛苦和折磨进行赔偿的裁决，是一个合理的解决方案。
