Drinking on the street is illegal. Drinking while pregnant isn’t. It is pretty immoral, what with the medically-proven damage that alcohol can do to an unborn baby. But should the decision to drink be left entirely to the woman carrying the child? Or do we have a moral responsibility to intervene on behalf of the baby when we see a pregnant woman abusing alcohol? That’s the question asked today…
We sent Dennis Cee out onto the streets to conduct a subtle experiment. He gets an actress to wear a realistic-looking fake bump that makes her appear at least eight months pregnant. And gives her a bottle of vodka (with water in). This social experiment tests people’s reaction to a pregnant lady drinking in public.
