Lab birth in Taatiklatar

Lab birth, the practice of artificially growing human babies in a lab instead of via natural pregnancy, has been legal nationwide in Taatiklatar since C.Y. 228. 52% of babies born in C.Y. 250 were grown in lab, the highest percentage ever measured and only the third time that the majority of babies born were lab births.

Lab birth is much more common in socially liberal, English-speaking, suburban, white and wealthy families than in other kinds of families. A central position of today's Liberty Party and Partido Independiente is an opposition to lab birth, due to both conflicts with major religions' positions on the matter and due to higher incidences of obesity, learning disabilities and social isolation among lab births on average (although whether this these issues are due to the lab births themselves or if they are merely coincidences is unknown.) The Peoples' Party and the Taatiklarian Party are generally supportive of lab births.
