Chosen Parents League Objects To Proposal
The Chosen Parents League representatives from Columbus met in Lorain County to oppose a proposed Ohio birth certificate form naming whether a child is legitimate or illegitimate. They argued the current form asks only if the mother is married and urged protest against adding labeling, fearing cruelty to children of unmarried mothers. The league, incorporated March 26, aims to unit counties to push uniform adoption, streamlined processes, and a single public agency with higher boarding-home standards.
