I'm not celebrating mother's day due to a magic little daily thing we call "The Pill" crazy how it's 50th Birthday falls exactly on Mother's Day 2010! In 1912, a feminist nurse named Margaret Sanger, who blamed her own mother's death on 18 pregnancies, called for a "magic pill" that would allow a woman to (in Sanger's words) "choose consciously whether she will or will not be a mother."
On May 9th, 1960, that "magic pill" became a radical reality.
