Abstract
This early television classic continues to be used for education. Participants are Sidney Callahan, The Hastings Center; David C. Abrahamson, Georgetown pediatrician, Warren T. Reich, Kennedy Institute of Ethics scholar; and Charles Currie, Georgetown University assistant professor of chemistry (in 1973), moderator. Filmed at Georgetown University, the panel discusses decision making in the treatment of infants born with birth defects. Callahan recommends a `child advocate' who would be involved with parents and health personnel.
