The killing of an infant under the age of one year. Some people argue that abortion is also infanticide. In some cases abortion is needed to save the pregnant mother because of severe medical problems that would result in the death of the pregnant mother, but in other cases abortion has been used as an elective surgery to terminate an unwanted pregnancy. There are different forms of abortions from Medical Abortion, Therapeutic Abortion, Spontaneous Abortion, Induced Abortion, Surgical Abortion, Sex-Selective Abortion, Backyard Abortion and Elective Abortion. In some countries infanticide has been argued that if a child is born with a congenital disorder or significant morbidity i.e. very retarded or fucked up, that infanticide should be allowed. This is in my opinion could also be called Infant Euthanasia or murder.
