Only the vaginal births of CP kids cause carebral palsy. And no one is suggesting all parturients should be C-sectioned. Otherwise the trial bar would have to come up with new junk science. In the meantime, the incidence of cerebral palsy will march through unchanged, as it has for decades. Of course not all vaginal births cause cerebral palsy.

Considering no one has claimed either of those things as a general rule, you’re absolutely correct! Kudos.

“To anonymous, 12:49, should every birth be c-section to avoid CP?”

No, has someone said they should?

To anonymous, 12:49, should every birth be c-section to avoid CP?

Vaginal births do NOT cause CP. Caesarian sections do NOT prevent CP.

You are in the wrong if you claim that CP can never be caused by malpractice.

In any case the “judge” was mesmerizingly inappropriate and should be removed from the bench.
