"Yeah, we did some audience testing and found that 'Planned Parenthood' polled better than 'Planned Infanticide.'"

Obviously I have no good suggestion, but in trying to think of one, I pondered the irony of the misnomer, "Planned Parenthood," an organization that's all about un-planned pregnancies and not becoming a parent.

Imagine Planned Parenthood offering services true to their name: helping a woman track her cycles to conceive; dealing with physical and mental issues of pregnancy; counseling mothers and fathers about balancing life and relationships with-kids; help dealing with sibling issues; grievance counseling for miscarriages (!); parental support groups.

What, that's not their business model?
