Is that really what happened with this law, or was it just an outdated piece of legislation?

What is most sad to me are those nine children that are being swept away in the system. Because of the circumstances they have been dealt, they are likely to go down the same path as their mother. I'm sure if you went back & looked at the upbringing of this woman, her circumstances were similar to the circumstances her children are dealing with. Poverty is so cyclical. This woman needs a tubal, or some sort of long-term birth control, but more than that she needs some help. Something that would help her get her life on track so she isn't seeing your husband in ten months pregnant with baby #10.

It can not be said that it smacks of chauvinism, as the law would never have been created in the first place, if it not for the fact of continued lawsuits brought by regretful females against their physicians….further running up malpractice insurance expenses and ruining it for everyone. The law applies to sterilization because there is a direct correlation between the emotions of the woman in her final trimester and her pregnancy or interest in subsequent pregnancies. If there were many wrongful mortgage lawsuits filed by remorseful postnatal women, there would be a law for that as well. Obviously fewer women have thought to file those suits, and even if they did, it would have no effect whatsoever on the insurance prices others pay. Now, whether the state should order this particular woman to be sterilized or if she chooses to continue her reckless procreation, make her fully financially responsible for her children’s care - whether or not they are in her physical custody – that, is another matter entirely.

I was miserable during that pg and thought I never wanted to do that again. <BR/><BR/>I had my tubes tied after son #3. I had tubal ligation reversal surgery about 4.5 years later...which eventually led to 5 years of trying to get pg again including clomid hell, a mc, a double ectopic and IVF.<BR/><BR/>I don't understand the 30 day thing though. At 31 days pre-due date we're sane but 29 we're not? That makes no sense.<BR/><BR/>(sorry for the book)Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15677486759919091018noreply@blogger.com
