I guess they prefer pregnant 15 year olds. The FDA, in a related story today, refused to make Plan B an over the counter medicine because they are concerned younger teenagers could get a hold of it.

First, if failure to keep someone from getting pregnant was grounds for damages, condom manufacturers would have been sued out of existence long ago…

Second, why am I reminded of that story a couple of days ago with the quote “School officials are not sure what has contributed to so many pregnancies”

Is there really that much ignorance out there as to where babies come from?

Birth of a healthy child is regarded as a boon to the parents and not a damage as a matter of long tradition and settled law.

Other damages shemight have suffered, as in cost of treatments she should not have been given, are another matter – as are damages related to the birth of an unhealthy child, depending on the circumstances.
