A proper, fair, easily accessible healthcare system is a lifesaver. Depending on where you live, medical care can be free, paid via taxes, incredibly cheap, or mind-bogglingly expensive. In some parts of the world, moms who give birth have the added stress of huge bills. Elsewhere, the only worry they have is whether the baby will be happy and healthy.

You see, the sister thought it was “unfair” that she’d paid nothing (except via mandatory health insurance) to give birth in France herself. Read on for the full story and people’s comments. Bored Panda reached out to the author for further comment.
