Yep. She took BC for 12 years because she didn't want kids, then got pregnant.
Okay, so the company did stuff up and put the inactive pills in the spaces where the active pills should have gone, but still.
She gave birth to a baby girl and is now suing the company that made those pills, for costs of raising her child.

Why sue for the cost of raising her child? Is she saying she didn't want the baby? She chose to give birth it, therefore she chose to be financially responsible for it. If she really didn't want a baby, she could have had an abortion.

"I was devastated," Shanta Russell, 33, told The Kansas City Star. "I questioned myself. After all these years, how could this happen? Of course I was angry. There was nothing I did that was a mistake."
Shanta had bought a home pregnancy test after missing a period in June 2011. Dumbfounded by the positive result, she took the test two more times.
"I couldn't get over the fact it was happening," she said.
She had two jobs, had a passion for travel, had planned to undertake further education to work in health care.
Three months later Shanta received a recall notice of her birth control pills from Qualitest Pharmaceuticals in the mail, warning that the contraceptive pills she had taken may have been placed in the wrong order in their blister packs.
