The Perils of Unassisted Childbirth in the Quiverfull Movement

[Manifestor_of_Light]

Sad that it's a Darwin Award for moms and babies too. Even demonizing women who have C-sections!!!

1. Yeah, all run by MEN who expect women to squat at the stove

drop the kid, cut the cord with their teeth, and go back to cooking.

Plus, they expect the performance to be repeated every ten months.

2. I feel sorry for the kids. The moms? Tough shit.

Actually it's only Darwinian if you remove yourself from the gene pool due to your own stupidity.

3. "Quiverfull"??? Are they kidding?

4. Those ultimate control freaks think their kids will be little obedient clones.

Tain't necessarily so.

5. Pretty strange

And now they have created 18 more of them.

Although I do not for one single second believe that a 47% C-section rate at a hospital is acceptable (like we have at our "women's hospital"). Many doctors cut on women because it is less likely there will be complications at the birth, thereby making the malpractice insurers happy.

6. When I was in the third grade my friend's mom died giving

birth to twins in their bathtub, babies died too. Later that same friend's sister died from appendicitis. This carnage brought to you by religion. Pathetic.
