OK...I'm an independent childbirth educator, and I'm an advocate of independent midwifery, which currently is a felony in NYS because, as the judge who wrote the majority opinion in the challenge to the PMPA wrote (and I paraphrase): "it didn't matter that the scientific evidence is in favor of independent midwifery, because there was enough legal precedent for squashing it that the legislature might be justified in not knowing it was wrong; and it wasn't for the judge to set the record straight and overturn the legislature's misinformed opinion."
