Well, I watched a program on the BBC on it earlier.

I am still in two minds. While I do find the idea of essentially paying someone to get themselves sterilised a little distasteful, I can see how it could be better than the alternative.

The alternative being in this case babies that will have severe physical and mental problems, and may well be in a situation where despite needing more love and care than other children, they are going to be stuck with parents who are just looking for the next fix, so will almost forget the babies.
