Hi CB,

Re: My step-grandmother was in Vista in Honduras for years after her husband died, teaching young, inexperienced mothers how to take care of their babies. That's a revolutionary act.

No it wasn't. It was an enabling act. A revolutionary act would have been for her to go there and teach young girls how to avoid making babies who have no reasonable expectation of a good life in Honduras and end up coming to LA to lower the wage scale. Teaching and enforcing birth control would have been revolutionary in her circumstances, not aiding and abetting unconsidered and "natural" behavior, without regard for consequences.
