It is a very complex: Ethical issue. In most states it is not legal due to the moral and ethical dilemmas.

What matters to u?: This is a question that will likely initiate many answers, but know that there is no "right" answer. What is ethical to some may be unethical to others. What is legal is some states may not be in others. There is no black and white in this subject, only gray. It is important to identify your values and make sure your decisions are dictated by them.
