[QUOTE="ThreeShadows, post: 340303, member: 6370"] I remember very vividly when this case broke. She wanted to marry the boss's son and the boys were in the way of her climbing up that small town social ladder. It was so painful for us because we both had gone through infertility treatment and she, who did not want babies, could dispose of them like garbage. I know it is unrealistic, but, when this happened, I wanted the whole country to stop its "business as usual" routine, sit down as a nation and re-examine our priorities. Why is social status so important to us that a young woman is willing to sacrifice the lives of her helpless children? There is something so mythologic about her story, ambition, spite ( torturing the father and the nation, then blaming an AA man), and revenge against a husband who had not lived up to her expectations. This is the makings of an American tragedy. [/QUOTE]
