Dr. Kenneth Chaffee performed a partial salpingectomy on Heather Seslar. The purpose of the procedure was to sterilize Seslar, who had already borne four children so that she could not become pregnant again. After undergoing the surgery, however, Seslar conceived and delivered a healthy baby. Seslar sued Chaffee. Assuming that Seslar wins, should the Court award damages for the costs of raising and educating the child? Reference the ethical theories for and against. (deontology, consequentialism, virtue ethics, etc).
