FutureMrsFIllion,
Unfortunately, Hero hasn't made a serious committment to winning the Darwin Award.
OK - I take it back as well. I just couldn't resist.
Yeah, I agree about the article AND the Handmaid's Tale.
Third world countries don't have these Stalinist proscriptions and their infant mortality rate is better than the US. Why?? They provide vitamins, checkups (for weight, BP, diabetes, proteinuria and other basic indicators) nutrition advice, advice to give up alcohol and drugs, and breastfeeding and infant nutrition classes AFTER a woman finds she's pregnant. And they provide midwives to all. These BASIC SIMPLE HELPFUL efforts FREE TO WOMEN are all that are needed.
Nearly everything I know I learned by the grace of others.
