Re: Why we should sterilise teenage girls ... temporarily at least

There is a case called Re F that shows this occurring, but I can't remember the year... 2003 perhaps

Obviously there are discussions about human rights and thigns as you say, but if it can be argued that it would harm the woman or baby to allow pregnancy than of course people can intravene, just like women can have their babies taken straight from them once their born by social services.


The problem with THIS is that they think that it is acceptable to do it to all young girls, which is pretty terrible if you ask me. Just because some teenage girls get pregnant to get on benefits doesn't mean that they are the only ones to do it, older women are bound to do it too. You can't just sterilise the ones that look like they might be doing that, who would decide?!

It is just completely stupid, I can't even believe that people are having to discuss whether it is a good idea. I'm pretty sure that there is a woman with a 15yr old daughter who is pregnant on this forum at the moment and I'd love to see whether a grandmother-to-be to one of these 'problems' would agree with this inhumane idea.
As much as I would like to disagree with blazey, I find a thread that even by discussion would brand all teenage girls as not able to make rational decisions so far as sex is concerned.
Any society that would condone such an act isn't worth saving.

I knew a young lad, lucky enough to be a handsome beast, always had the girls falling over him, would treat them like queens until he finally got them pregnant then he would drop them like a brick to fend for themselves, by the time he was 20 he had six children by different girls that he had 'thrilled', and he laughed at the payments he was supposed to make, if anyone caught up with him with a summons etc. he would just up sticks and move to a new address and the courts would have to start all over again.

The majority of people answering this thread seem to be women, surely you have all been tempted by sex as a single girl and should therefore be saying there but for the grace of god go I.

You didn't get caught, don't insult the latest generation of women by even contemplating forcing them into a situation you would think inhuman for yourself.
