I'm also a law student, but I'm not going to go on a public forum and begin talking about Tort law as if I am an expert. From a legal perspective, if she didn't sign a consent form, they were wrong. From a personal perspective, people who can't take care of the children they already have and who have had parental rights already terminated should be sterilized and they should also be charged with child neglect.
Here come the flames. I am a former caseworker and counselor. I've watched women with drug addictions and parental rights terminated, who lived on the system, complain when CYS didn't give them more handouts than they already got. I've seen people play the system like a fiddle, on more than one occasion. I saw it every day.
Because this thread is based on her being sterilized, I will attempt to refrain from putting my personal opinion into the discussion regarding child rearing (it seems I already failed above). Legally, I don't even know how you could walk into an office and say, "give me surgery using this item." I know that even to get a new piercing (when I got my belly button re-pierced) I was not allowed to use an old earring that I soaked in alcohol. The tattoo/ piercing artist did not want to use items that they don't sell to cover their own butts. With malpractice being such a hot button issue, why would a Doctor be okay with that? I'm not a Doctor-so if anyone here is or is in med school, please explain.
