Kennedy probably wanted to take the kid to the lobby for a photo op-the family has always seemed addicted to those. I’m no fan of the Kennedys, but at the risk of being a bitch-a child belongs to the parents, not the government or the personnel of the place where the mother gave birth. I don’t give a damn what the people who work there thought was “proper”, the kid belongs to the Kennedy couple, period.
Most of us pay for the services of a hospital or birthing center, so that makes care a purchased service you can stop at any time. When my cub was born, we walked out of the hospital/birthing center 12 hours after the birth with her, and no one said a thing but “enjoy your baby”, and handed me a receipt for my co-pay. That said, if I were young and starting a family, you can bet that I’d retain the services of a nurse practitioner-midwife for a home birth, no matter what the cost. It is getting to the point that we shouldn’t even have a baby without retaining a lawyer to protect our rights-my money, my kid, my business.
SU has nothing but close games. Yea SU!
