But that has nothing to do with my response to the comment that "IT'S EVERY WOMAN'S RIGHT TO HAVE A CHILD". It's that concept I can't get my head around.


I haven't actually commented on the central issue about whether this child should be sterilised as per the mother's wishes. I think that is something you can have a REAL view on only when you are in that mother's position. In her position I would probably say the same. But as an 'objective' free-thinking-liberal, I may well claim it is an abomination.....who knows?

There are those who feel that the only way to ‘prove their own worth’ is by ‘devaluing the worth of others’. You will often find that a man who is compelled to measure his substance against the substance of another, has little of substance in the first place!
