They didn't call her "leech-like", they called her behavior "leech-like".. and it was.

Should pregnant women be exempt from any type of judgement regardless of their behavior?

Or perhaps implementing a Canadian/European style parental leave program paid by taxes would mean this woman wouldn't have to act like this to get some support before/after having a child.

Or maybe people should wait until they're in a position where they don't have to resort to such behavior in order to support their offspring.
