No woman should ever feel they HAVE TO abort.

15. That's when you start getting into the creepy discussions of forced sterilization and

taking the children away... Things most people don't want to discuss, because it really boils to down those three options.

1) Society gives the parents money so the kids do not starve and live in the gutter
2) Take the children away and put them somewhere
3) Forced sterilization

Of course there is education, proper birth control, giving the mother a way to better her position (career training), but with the few who refuse to do anything, there aren't really any other choices that I can think of.

Most people don't want to even contemplate the forced sterilization and hopefully never will...
Taking the children away may be best in some situations, but the shitty foster system doesn't always guarantee the children will be placed in a better situation. Which is even more true with kids who may been seen as undesirable for whatever reason (behavioral problems, medical issues... and I'm willing to bet more blue eyed blond kids are adopted than minority children)

We should help the mothers/fathers who truly have the best interests of their kids at hear (Which I think most parents fall under that)

As for those kids with truly poor parents, I think we owe it to them to clean up our foster system or create something new that doesn't let these kids get passed around and abused like they are.


Ugh. I'm just blabblering.
