Families and future children: the role of rights and interests in determining ethical policy for regulating families.
"Rights" and "interests" are key ethical concepts in the debate on the regulation of Assisted Reproductive Technology. This article examines some of the ways in which these terms have been used in the debate, concentrating on their application to the situation of the potential children resulting from the technology. The article argues that, while there have been many misuses of these terms by the parties to the often acrimonious debate, nevertheless ethical regulation depends on maintaining the concepts as of central importance, but at the same time clarifying their use.
