well...
this is slightly different, but did anyone see the oprah where they were talking about young moms who are in denial the whole pregnancy and abandon or throw away their babies right after they're born. I AM NOT saying that it's a good thing, but in some way, my heart goes out to these panicked girls, esp. since there are so many people and media agents pointing them out and labeling them horrible people. In some places, they've passed legal abandonment laws so there are places that women can anonymously drop babies, and retrieve them up to 2 months later. If they aren't retrieved they're put up for adoption. May not be the "right thing' or whatever, but it is a solution that's better than babies thrown in dumpsters and left to die...
