How completely incompetent. Why didn't he recommend psychological treatment? Maybe she could have volunteered in an orphanage, when she wasn't working.
This whole thing is so totally wrong. This woman now has, what is it, five dead babies? And one living who will be brought up by a nanny.
Amen
Ellen Goodman saw fit to use this woman as an example in her latest column. Ellen basically says that women are put in the position of having to do what this woman did-- choose between motherhood and a career. Stupid Ellen doesn't see that having children is a career. It's the most important career a woman can have. Stupid Ellen doesn't understand that when one tries to have two careers, one career suffers. Furthermore, stupid Ellen and this stupid woman don't see that this woman made her choice years ago-- now her baby will pay for it.
ah, but motherhood is not "logical"...
As a Catholic, I oppose "test tube babies" on the principal that it separates sex from procreation.
However, if you read the BIBLE, there are plenty of stories about women who do "immoral" things to get pregnant...and God doesn't punish them very much, because their hearts were good, and they did the "immoral" deed from motives of love.
