Because infant are individual human beings and they have a right to
life, they are not owned by anyone but their parents have a duty of
guardenship to a reasonable amount of protection and support that can
not be arbitarly set by  state legislation. The parents invite the
guest into their world knowing the infant could not take care of
itself, the parents have no right to own the child or sell it into
slavery or to sell its birthright which is necessary to live and
liberty.                                                             
              
     Adult children can also take guardnship of parents who are in
the last stages of dementa if the parents did not live written
instrcutions to that effect or otherwise but the adult children do
not own the parents they can not murder the parents or sell them into
slavery.                                                             
              
       If others think either a parent is violating the rights of an
infant or an adult child is violating the rights of a parent they can
present the evidence before a prosecutor and or a grandjury and later
before a peiti jury if the case goes to trial but the burden of proof
is on the state and the state can not appeal but the defedent can.
Plus the defedent can counter sue the person who present the case
before the prosecutor, the prosecutor and the
state.                          
     Like most things this too is case by case, a mercy killing in
some cases may be justfied but all killings including those of self
defense should be
investigated.                                                   
             The standard for libertarians is a respect for the life
of a human beings and a respect for human rights. Infacide and the
killing of the old or sick in general is crude uncivil barberism even
when practice in the Modern  state of the
Nertherlands.                        
            If a fetus or even a zygote is a human being then
libertarians must suuport its right to life but they must also
suuport the mothers right to self defense. There is no need of,
special costitutional amendments or special legislation, it is basic
case by case law. Did  a killing of a human being occur in this case?
If a killing of a human being occured was it self defense or
homocide? If it was homicide what degree of homicide was it. Do you
have enough evidence to prove before 12 jurors beyond a reasonable
doubt the points of your case? Remember as a prosecutor of the state
neither you or the state can appeal but the defedent can. So  do you
not only have enough evidence beyond a reasonable doubt to convince
all 12 members of the jury but convince the judges in appeal as far
as the defedent will carry it?--- In
