What does Scientology say about the raising of children?
L. Ron Hubbard has written a great deal about raising children. In Scientology, children are recognized as people who should be given all the respect and love granted adults.
Scientologists believe children should be encouraged to contribute to family life and not just be seen and not heard as the old saying goes. Children are spiritual beings, and as such they need to exchange with those around them in order to thrive and live productive, happy lives. For more information on raising children, the book Child Dianetics and the course How to Be a Successful Parent are recommended reading.
Most children raised in good Scientology homes are above average in ability and quickly begin to understand how and why people act as they do. Life thus becomes a lot happier and safer for them.
For more information, see How Can Scientology Help Me with Children?
Do Scientologists use medical doctors?
Of course. The Church of Scientology has always had the firm policy of not diagnosing or treating the sick. Medical doctors are trained to deal with the physical aspects of illness and injury. A Scientologist with a physical condition is always advised to seek and obtain the needed examination and treatment of a qualified medical professional. Once under medical treatment, a Scientologist then addresses his illness or injury with auditing to handle any spiritual trauma or other factors connected with the physical condition which may have predisposed him to illness or injury.
There are also many medical doctors who are Scientologists themselves.
What is the Scientology view on drugs?
Scientologists use medical drugs when physically ill and also rely on the advice and treatment of medical doctors. Scientologists do not take street drugs or mind-altering psychiatric drugs of any kind.
Scientologists believe that psychotropic or street drugs damage a person physically, mentally and spiritually. They decrease awareness and hinder abilities. They are a solution to some other problem and themselves become a problem.
Mr. Hubbard developed an entire body of technology to enable individuals to recover from the harmful mental and spiritual effects of drugs. His discoveries are widely used in countries all over the world. (See What is the Purification Program? and What is Narconon?)
What is a Silent Birth?
In the book, Dianetics, L. Ron Hubbard writes that for the benefit of the mother and child, silence should be maintained during childbirth. This is because any words spoken are recorded in the reactive mind and can have an aberrative effect on the mother and the child. The same applies to the vicinity of any injured person. To find out why, read Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health.

Then after my c-section, it felt like someone was holding a lighter to the spot of my incision every time i moved more than a few inches.
How about this. We take Tom, and those muscle stimulators they use in physical therapy. Plaster them all over his abdomen, back, and groin. Turn it up to about 75% and blast him, say, oh, every 5-6 minutes. Then turn it up to 100% and do the same, every 2-3 minutes or less. Then lets see how silent he is.
What if she needs a c-section, which is entirely possible? If this needs to be anesthetic-free, then he's a certifiable nutcase. If she is allowed anesthetic, but no pain reliever, then he gets a similar treatment, though instead of the muscle stimulators, just hold a match (or some high heat source) to his abdomen, and see how he fares.

Now if they were to say...men had to undergo a vasectomy without anesthetia then I would start to listen to them about birth. Since that will never happen. I ain't listening.
Giving birth hurts and anyone who can stay quiet during it gets my standing ovation. I managed to give birth 4 times naturally with hardly any pain meds, but I sure wasn't quiet about it.
I used to think Tom was hot, now he's just a nut case who should be ashamed of himself for going after a girl so much younger than him.
