Abstract:
The discussion of the moral status of the embryo mainly focuses on the debating of human beings and human persons in western country.From the angle of the localizing view,the embryo is not a real person.The abortion can get defended.Considering the embryo has potential and value relationship,it has the limited moral status.In dealing with the problem,we should not protect the embryos by emphasizing the embryo's moral position,but we should control abortion appropriately by humanitarian perspective to respect the embryo.
