My sister adopted my niece and later my nephew, who have the same biological mother. The bio mom has lived a rough life and has my sympathy, but she’s not a good mother and every minute that she has children in her care, they’re being neglected at best. Unfortunately, she doesn’t seem to care much about getting pregnant, so she’s had 7-8 kids at this point.

I’d rather the state keep her name on a list than let children suffer or sterilize someone against their will. I don’t really see a fourth option.
