None. She was mentally retarded. It was done then as a treatment for violent outbursts.
According to Dr. Bertram Brown, a former director of the National Institute of Mental Health, the fact that Rosemary could do arithmetic meant that her IQ was well above 75, the cutoff used by most states to define mental retardation for purposes of classifying school children. At the age of 9, Rosemary neatly and correctly multiplied and divided: 428x32=13696, for example

Lobotomies are cruel. Don't we have enough mindless automatons as it is with the republican party and the christains who want everyone to be like them?

Wow.
Two days and three pages, before some blubbering liberal finally figures out how to copy all the liberal jokes in this thread and swap in the word "republican".
There are thousands if not millions of chemical lobotomies being performed on kids right now.
It's funny how so many who would think a lobotomy being cruel have no problem chemically lobotomizing their kids. Don't we already do this to prisoners now?
Under tha ACA, lobotomy's are considered a coverable procedure for insurance purposes. It will be known as an "Obatomy". Caregivers will be given tax credits if the patient can be re-trained to always pull the lever with the candidate with the (D) next to their name.

Yep. Ritalin. Prozac. And so forth.
There's an ad running now that drives me crazy. The "people" in the ad are mindless, computer generated cartoony things. A woman talking to her doctor, then going to work and attending a business meeting, then going home to her husband, who is cooking on the grill, and 2 kids. The ad (the name of the drug escapes me) is for something you can take when your regular mind-bending med isn't quite working. Like a booster drug.
Pathetic.
