I will always fight against the people I care about when they decide to saddle their kids with Krea'tivv U-Neeque Nhaymes. Unusual names are great, just let them be easy to spell and not sentence the kid to a daily ass beating in elementary school.

If I'm paying for it, I'm calling most of the shots.

"f I'm paying for it, I'm calling most of the shots"

Where's the line you'll draw at giving up your control? Would you deny her an epidural that she's begging for if you don't think they're necessary? Or is it more 'I'd rather you go to the hospital to deliver instead of on my living room floor'

Bingo.

Birthing center with trained doulas and access to a hospital in case of emergency? Fine. Hospital and fully medicated? Also fine. Au naturale at the hospital? Great! I'm not paying for an elective c-section, and I'm really, really uncomfortable with the idea of a child homebirthing to the point where I would refuse to allow her to do it.

Understandable. My views are quite similar.

I'm just... not equipped to deal with that. I want someone with a degree/many years of schooling in this field running the show.l

Not too much. If she wants a non-hospital birth with a medically trained midwife, I'm cool with a birthing center or something like it. I'm just very uncomfortable with the idea of anyone birthing in my living room, myself included.
