Engelhardt on the moral status of young children
John C. Moskop
pp. 163-174
In his many contributions to the bioethics literature over the past quarter century, H. Tristram Engelhardt, Jr. has addressed the question of the moral status of children a number of times, sometimes in passing and occasionally at greater length.1 Engelhardt typically distinguishes the moral status of younger children, including infants, from that of older children and adults; in this paper I will focus on his discussions of younger children.
