So I do psychiatric social work. Not the greatest but it (kind of) pays the bills & there's never a dull moment. So I'm doing an intake appt with a lady who is about 60 but doesn't look a day over dead for 5 years (for realz) & I ask her about her family so we have contact for next of kin. She tells me she's been married for 30 something years. I ask if she has any siblings, kids, etc. She says she doesn't have any contact with her siblings & she never had kids because (drum roll, please) her mother made her husband get a VASECTOMY before they were married because she thought he was MR; and he got it done. Granted, the man is mild MR but Oh. Em. Gee. I can't imagine my MIL demanding something like that!
