Edit: Just as a random add-on, I also thing you should be allowed to get permanent sterilization surgery when you're 18...no questions asked. I've been battling with several doctors about this since my 18th birthday.
AMEN to that!!!! What gives with that anyway?!?! I have NEVER understood why some middle-aged male doctor has the right to tell a woman how many children she WILL want to have in ten years? Excuuuuse me??
We can go to the doctor and get a face-lift, a breast enlargement, a butt-lift, etc. ... surgeries that have NO medical value whatsoever, are purely cosmetic. But ... we can't get our tubes tied. What?!?! 
I wanted my tubes tied after I had my son. I KNEW I NEVER wanted anymore kids. I was twenty-three years old. Nope, no way, no one would do it. NOT fair.

"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
