Personally, I don't think jail is the answer. But I do wholeheartedly support involuntary commitment to inpatient rehab centers. Sometimes I think we should have halfway houses or sober living environments for women who have extensive drug histories and are pregnant. They could get tested every few days by the "houseparents", but still go to work or school.

I sooo agree with you, Ravensong! There was a post on here awhile ago about laws you wish there were...I wish there was a law that forced women who were pregnant and using to be sent to rehabs until the baby's birth to protect these little innocent babes!
