"I don't think she HAD hepatitis but it took three tests to prove it. However, you can get it through no fault of their own. This was B not C. "

Hepatitis B is a sexually transmitted disease, it is spread by the contamination with infected bodily fluids. The parents knew that and that's why they objected to the bogus lab results. The test makers quick test sucks and so does the hospital's lab.

The parents were educated and held jobs, they just didn't have insurance. They are entitled to decide, by right, what is best for their children, not the docs, the judge, or you. Freedom requires that you respect the rights of others to run the affairs of their lives just as they must respect yours. There's no justification at all for you to have called them, "a pair of fruits". I wouldn't give my kid a hep B shot either, because the particular restrictive mode of transmission restricts aquisition of the disease to the promiscuous.

Freedom does not allow a parent to allow a child to die.

Teenagers trying to have a home delivery are fruits. This whole issue arose because of that and for no other reason. Without that foolish decision everything would have had time to be worked out.

Their education is quite limited with the most educated of the pair alledgedly has a AA degree. This is insufficient for attempting home delivery, a particularly dangerous endeavor for those who do not know what they are doing.

I have a 19 yr. old and, even though he is very intelligent and a good boy, I would never trust him with such a decision.

One-third of those with B do not know how they got it. Newly infected people are primarily young adults.

Maybe it is just ole hard-hearted me but I doubt very seriously if this girl was a virgin when she and the guy made this baby or him either so I doubt your take on it is accurate. Were they married?
