A member asked:
Mentally retarded adult males and sterilization? back to days of the titicutt follies?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hope not : Hopefully there are no more facilities such as bridgewater state hospital or we'll have to rely on mr. Wiseman to expose such crude treatment of people. Male sterilization on someone not competent to sign consent has his conservator or guardian hopefully making the right decision for them.
