Once I was in the clutches of the social service system it was impossible to get out I called a local hospital and requested a female gynecologist because I had been molested by a male doctor when I was 9 years old. She assumed I wanted an abortion and acted like she would be doing me a favor I was horrified and told her ,no. Without missing a beat she offered to deliver my baby for $500.00(The price has sure gone up since then) I thought'Yeah this weirdo will probably kill my baby while she's delivering him and just say'Oh,something went wrong-So Sorry) So I went to an unwed mother home and that's how I got tangled up in the system My baby did have good parents though and I am grateful for that at least and we have since been reunited but the whole situation has made me berserk and feeling different I stay away from people as much as possible now and stick to cats.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
