mreye Posted February 11, 2005 Share Posted February 11, 2005 My God. What the f***! You don't want the kid? Stop f***ing! Close your legs! Take the kid to a hospital! Kill these two immediately! Sorry. I'm pissed off. I've seen enough! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted February 11, 2005 Share Posted February 11, 2005 I'm starting to think instead of abstence or protection, they need to start teaching about adoption. This is just sick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen Prawn Posted February 11, 2005 Share Posted February 11, 2005 Why do people who don't deserve babies have them and yet people that do and really want them physically can't? Life just doesn't make sense to me sometimes. I know someone who can't and has been trying to adopt for awhile with no luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosMediasBlancas Posted February 11, 2005 Share Posted February 11, 2005 In Chicago at least, if you drop off a newborn at a church, they will take him from you with no questions asked and no charges filed. I wonder how many people know that. Churches and the police don't really advertise that, probably in fear that they will turn into an unwanted baby drop off location.....or they think it promotes unprotected sex. I bet most of these people don't want a kid and think they will be forced to raise it if they go somewhere for help. Sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't just give people the keys to a car and say "have at it", but yet anyone can raise a child. Its just sad really. That poor child.

LosMediasBlancas Posted February 11, 2005 Share Posted February 11, 2005 If we start telling people who should or should not have kids and how many etc, we'd turn into frickin China. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few years back there was a bill before Congress to make Planned Parenthood offer lierature on adoption. PP fought it and the bill never passed. Now, why would "Planned Parenthood" fight something like that? Why does the left fight against notifying parents of a minor seeking an abortion? Pro Choice or Pro Abortion?

mreye Posted February 11, 2005 Share Posted February 11, 2005 It was all bulls*** Authorities say baby never tossed from car Sheriff: Woman who reported incident is boy's mother Friday, February 11, 2005 Posted: 3:01 PM EST (2001 GMT) FORT LAUDERDALE, Florida (CNN) -- A newborn baby reported tossed out of a moving car was never thrown from the vehicle, and the woman who reported seeing the incident is the boy's mother, Broward County Sheriff Ken Jenne said Friday. The woman didn't want her family to know about the child, Jenne said. Patricia Pokriats, 38, "made up an incredible story," Jenne said. Jenne said the infant is healthy and doing well. The Broward County Sheriff's Office said a woman told authorities she was driving Thursday afternoon in a residential area of northern Fort Lauderdale when she saw a man and woman arguing in a car. A bundle flew out the window as the car slowed and landed on grass by the road, the woman reportedly told authorities. She reportedly told them she found a baby boy with a plastic bag over his head. The baby was flown via helicopter to Broward Medical Center. Nurses nicknamed the boy "Johny" after his attending physician, Johny Tryzmel. Authorities said they received calls from people wanting to adopt him or offering money for college. The 8-pound, 2-ounce boy was only hours old and still had his umbilical cord attached, authorities said. Florida has a safe haven law under which a parent or relative can turn a newborn over to authorities with no questions asked during the first three days of his or her life.
