tuition for smaller, private schools. Several

Year Old Boy Witch Hunt

realize just how complicated this case actually
is. The Mc Martin Preschool case, when first
glanced at, just seems to be about parents suing a
school for allegedly molesting their children.
This case went on for years and to this day it has
not been proven whether or not any of the hundreds
of children who attended Mc Martin Preschool were
molested by the couple who ran it, Charles and
Peggy Bucket, or any of the other seven accused
defendants. Along ...

Giving Birth Medical Profession

Support for the Midwifery Profession: Pros and
Cons The tradition of midwifery virtually
disappeared in Canada during the early part of
this century. Several generations of women gave up
childbirth at home to the medical profession. They
did this in the name of safety and pain relief, or
simply because the option of being cared for by a
midwife no longer existed. Midwifery should be
re-instated as a legal and honourable profession.
