[quote=Anonymous]It's lack of access to prenatal care, good nutrition (look up "food deserts", for example), lack of scientifically based childbirth (lots of what hospitals require isn't good science and there can be the old Ina May "cascade of interventions"), we have fairly high rates of c section (not as high as, say, Brazil, but the WHO recommends a rate of about 10%) and there is a much higher degree of complications anytime you introduce surgery, we really don't support mothers, either. It's basically up to a woman to fight for leave, or any other accommodations. There are a whole host of reasons why.[/quote]
