My father was quite alright with it. For him it was her well being that mattered (and the previous apathy I mentioned) however it didn't stop my mother at all who fell pregnant with me and had an extremely dangerous pregnancy which was sabotaged more than once by her metabolism and the baby in despair within her womb. She was so senselessly obsessive that she even said yes to lying back motionless for the 6 months of 7 months she carried me.
