Generally speaking, Americans have a strong dislike for three things:
A)The sight of a police car in their rearview mirror.
B)Food whose names they can't pronounce.
C)Being told how to act in private.
Having a child is not a private act. Ask Howlin. Every birth gets registered at the Courthouse, and things related to birth's are disputed and settled there -- things such as paternity, support, estates, wills.
