It doesn't mean you deserve it. Deserve is a different concept.

Its like using folic acid to prevent neural tube defects, if you refuse to use them and your child gets a preventable neural tube defect you kind of asked for it.

Again, you don't deserve it, just asked for it.
I think it's the harsh-sounding words "asking for it" that is bugging people. I kinda think you might have a point in a way..... I definatley wouldn't say anyone is asking for" anything though.....

But maybe if you have these warnings and suggestions and ignore them.... Maybe you just shouldn't be too surprised if they do happen.
