    I visited once when I was 18-19 and I was so unsettled to see almost every young adult woman my age pushing grocery carts with back-to-back kids. Like…they had no chance. For a people who value large families I would think maternity care would be exceptionally well funded. I guess they’ll just make preventable death (4 in 5 maternal deaths) even more commonplace for these young women.
