If you can do that and not feel the wrongness of forbidding these women to carry children, you are looking thru an entirely different looking glass.
Like mentally retarded people. Tell me, Harry, how does procreation become a right for these?
How is procreation sacred to every living being?
How about the repeat child abusers, the women who live with their boyfriends and have their children tortured and beaten to death because "I was afraid I'd lose him if I told him to stop" They are allowed "freedom of procreation?"
When do you start thinking of the innocents here, and stop trying to insist everyone has the same rights?

And, what about that mother who popped out several children just to turn around and murder them and bury them in the yard .... is she just supposed to keep getting pregnant and offing them?? Do I think she should have been sterilized? Yes, I do. I can not imagine that she still has a "right" to breed.
I really must look up that case again ... it was so deliciously evil of her. I'm wondering if anyone made it into a book. I do so love true crime.
Lets see .... ok, so it's wrong to sterilize her, even though she only seems to murder her own children. So, it's more "humane" to lock her up for the rest of her life, either in prison or in a mental institution, and pray that no paroles her while she's still fertille, or to put her to death?? Gee, what fun.
Oooooo, reading about another case like that one, but in Australia.. The quote from that case is just too good: "When asked if it would be possible to rehabilitate her, he said, "The idea of her being released while still of child-bearing age is one that doesn't inspire much confidence."
Wow .... but of course .... you must release her, she has a "right" to breed.
