- Description
- In the wake of the Supreme Court's 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, many states tested Roe by placing restrictions on abortion rights. Most states now have parental consent laws for women under age 18. For minors who have reason to avoid parental involvement, the Supreme Court has instituted a generally welcomed compromise that allows minors to seek authorization by a third party, usually a judge. In this study, Silverstein demonstrates that this compromise is fatally flawed. Widely surveying courts in Alabama, Pennsylvania and Tennessee, she discovered that while some courts implement the bypass process straightforwardly, in many others judges defy the law. Some will not sign bypass waivers because they oppose abortion: others insist that the minor receive counseling from a pro-life Christian ministry: still others appoint a lawyer to represent the interests of the fetus. Silverstein explains the problems with this compromise, concluding that it is rooted in the myth that judges can be relied on to be unbiased. While her writing tends toward the academic and legalistic, Silverstein has produced an important contribution to women's studies and legal practice and theory.

- The Myth of the Perfect Pregnancy provides a reassuring perspective on early pregnancy loss and suggests ways for miscarriage to more effectively be acknowledged by women, their families, their healthcare providers, and the maternity care industry.. .When a couple plans for a child today, every moment seems precious and unique. Home pregnancy tests promise good news just days after conception, and prospective parents can track the progress of their pregnancy day by day with apps that deliver a stream of embryonic portraits. On-line due date calculators trigger a direct-marketing barrage of baby-name lists and diaper coupons. Ultrasounds as early as eight weeks offer a first photo for the baby book. Yet, all too often, even the best-strategized childbearing plans go awry. . .About twenty percent of confirmed pregnancies miscarry, mostly in the first months of gestation. Statistically, early pregnancy losses are a normal part of childbearing for healthy women. Drawing on sources ranging from advice books and corporate marketing plans to diary entries and blog posts, Lara Freidenfelds offers a deep perspective on how this common and natural phenomenon has been experienced. As she shows, historically, miscarriages were generally taken in stride so long as a woman eventually had the children she desired.. .This has changed in recent decades, and an early pregnancy loss is often heartbreaking and can be as devastating to couples as losing a child. Freidenfelds traces how innovations in scientific medicine, consumer culture, cultural attitudes toward women and families, and fundamental convictions about human agency have reshaped the childbearing landscape. While the benefits of an increased emphasis on parental affection, careful pregnancy planning, attentive medical care, and specialized baby gear are real, they have also created unrealistic and potentially damaging expectations about a couple's ability to control reproduction and achieve perfect experiences.
