Maybe we need to start being aggressive about these things, instead of always being so accommodating.....

Why don't women start charging the state for pain and suffering for every pregnancy. File a massive class action lawsuit sort of thing. Any woman who gets pregnant should be supported, compensated and paid for any permanent injury that results from the pregnancy (depends for life for this rendered incontinent, for instance). Then if they decide to terminate, the state saves money....see how fact this sort of stuff would turn around.
