Both common law and statutory law recognize the possibility of a women being pregnant at the time that her husband dies. In such a case, the child, should the child be born and live the requisite time after birth, would be a surviving child. This woman was not pregnant at the time her husband died.

"In such a case, the child, should the child be born and live the requisite time after birth, would be a surviving child."

And here in is the problem for pro-deathers. When does a "child" become a child? At conception or after he/she's breathed his/her first breath of air? If a child cannot be considered a child until after it's come out of the womb (9 months, 2 years, heck... 100 years) then the case can be made that it doesn't matter when the child was conceived and thus make murdering the child in the womb or pilfering the taxpayers retirement fund ok but... If it can be established that the child becomes a child at the moment of conception then all bets are off and civility, at least in part, will begin to return to our society.

This case is just one more attempt by the pro-abortion/deathers to dehumanize conceived, unborn children.
