I'm so pissed I don't know what to title this.

A 21 year old woman who already has a one year old & is pregnant with her second, has been refused a tubal by her OB. Because she is "too young". Which is such bullshit, because if she's old enough to have a toddler & a soon-to-be newborn, obviously she is old enough to have her tubes tied.

But then again, we live in a child centric world where a woman in her early twenties is old enough to have children, but yet too young to get a tubal. And yet tubals can be reversed, whereas children are forever (and I mean that as in, once you become a parent, there's no going back, not as children will live forever).
