more quality journalism from the The Herald...I feel sorry for all those so called "gullible" women who will be brainwashed by the home birth lobby into endangering themselves and their babies...because of course everybody knows that pregnant mothers are stupid and incapable of making informed decisions, because being pregnant automatically means our intelligence goes out the window and we need to be treated like children. Because a woman who is convinced by her doctor to have an induction or a c/s because her baby is "too big" and it is "safer" is not being brainwashed at all...no no because when a doctor says it it must be true because they are superhuman and never wrong about anything.
