Question mark, because I don’t remember if it’s really science fiction.
What I remember is that a woman gives birth in a hospital. She doesn’t have any money to pay her bill. The hospital will not release her daughter until the bill is paid. The girl grows up in the hospital, gaining a very good medical education. (ISTR her parents had above-average IQs, which she inherited.) I think that something happened that put her unique situation to good use; but I don’t remember what, nor the outcome.
I don’t think it’s a full-length story (but I could be wrong), and it may have appeared in Omni or an anthology.
**A,DV ** suffered from a bad case of juvenile high-spiritedness, a sophomoric approach to the “lifting of taboos.”
Dangerous Visions had a number of thought-provoking stories that actually examined societal conventions by going beyond them in an outrageous fashion (although the times have changed, and it is probably difficult for youngsters today to appreciate how iconoclastic and subversive the collection was).
Again, Dangerous Visions abandoned the insights for gross-out and puerile sex stories. The downward trend is clear enough that I am glad the third collection never was published.
If she’d looked over the table of contents, just the title of Kurt Vonnegut’s story “The Big Space Fuck” might have caused a problem.
Fortunately, my parents were happy to let me order whatever I could afford from the Science Fiction Book Club; I think they were totally unaware of New Wave stuff.
