Fuentes said the infant only wearing a onesie when he found her. She is being treated and is listed in good condition.  Thankfully now the baby can go to a family who actually gives a shit.
To be fair, it's very possible they couldn't support the baby. And the lack of sex ed in the US probably keeps them from knowing about the baby dead drop locations. I know you can drop a baby off, no questions asked at my fire department. People there put the baby up for adoption and take care of the baby for you. It sickens me that this probably happened because the person who abandoned the baby was raised on abstinence education. Though I'm probably jumping to conclusions.
Even so, there are a lot better ways of getting rid of a baby than dumping them in the road
Leaving them at random asshole's doorstep, ringing the bell and booking it afterwards would be better option, jesus
Yeah. My point is that there's literally facilities to take up abandoned babies for you. The lack of sex ed is to blame for this tragedy. They share some blame too, I just majorly blame society I guess.
left out overnight in just a onesie in 31 degree weather how desperate do you have to be jesus
Lol what? What the fuck does sex ed have to do with leaving a baby for dead? Sex made the baby but it was a piece of shit sub-human that left her on the road.
Schools teach "don't have sex!" when they should teach "here's how to have sex safely and without making babies" Abstinence-only sex ed increases teen pregnancy rates.
Sex ed is what taught me that "if a baby happens and you don't want it, take it here." With descriptions of the locations, and what happens to the baby. Sex ed isn't just about safe sex and not having babies, it's also about if you have a baby you don't want. You can't assume everything goes well.
I dont think sex ed would have prevented a person from dropping a baby off on the road. Morality isn't something you can teach. You're either fucked in the head or not.
I mean, they could've gotten an abortion I guess.
What lack of sex ed...? I learned 80% of everything I needed to know in 5th grade because I actually paid attention and didn't giggle every time the teacher said "penis". You can surrender children to fire stations or police stations at ANY time without being punished or identified. You don't even have to interact with anyone, just leave it at the door and ring the bell. Even if you didn't know that, you could literally google "how do I surrender a baby" and it would tell you the same thing.
My sex ed just taught me the various diseases you get, and we learned nothing about actual contraception or pregnancy.
And you learned this from where?
Yes, it is black and white. How is leaving a fucking baby for dead a gray area? It's inexcusable, no matter how the baby came to be.
That's not what you said, though? "Morality isn't something you can teach. You're either fucked in the head or you're not" is not a statement on the article, it's a statement on the human psyche and it's in dire need of some sourcing. Since when can you not teach morality? And the bullshit notion that people are either completely fucked up, or not at all, is basically the whole reason there's such a huge stigma against mental illness
Literally wrong, this was something that was directly taught to me. Sex ed can and does teach you where to properly leave a baby if not wanted and you have no other option. Not a matter of morality as much as a matter of proper education.
How dishonorable. Anyways, what the fuck the reporter sounds like text-to-speech
It's funny how the posts here focus on how apparently abstinence is 'bad' and sex-ed on how to have safe sex is somehow 'good'. Western society is a joke. Neither extreme solves any problem, abstinence and proper sex-ed go together, the solution isn't teaching people how to have all the sex they want safely, or to not have sex at all. It's to teach people "when/who/how" they should/shouldn't have sex, not fucking give people places to drop their 'oopsies', it's like no one sees the long term effect of these on the unwanted children, the parents, and society as a whole.
On what planet is calling abstinence education bad an "extreme"? All the states that teach it literally have higher pregnancy rate. And with that, higher poverty rates. It's literally proved to be shit. How do you prevent that? Inform people how to have safe sex. Abstinence and proper sex-ed go together like my wet dick goes with an electrical outlet.
"Doing it all you want" and "Not doing it at all" are both extremes. I don't live in the US so I cannot give a completely correct judgement but only a general one, people who have no idea of sex-ed, obviously cannot effectively prevent unwanted pregnancies, and since the abstinence education is not done in an effective way that truly makes people understand "why" to not do it and only they "shouldn't", it cannot effectively suppress innate desire and so leads to higher pregnancy rates. However if you think teaching people to fuck all they want as long as they don't have an unwanted child has no problems of its own, then you just don't see far ahead enough
I think there may be a language barrier here. But uh, people are going to fuck. That is an absolute truth in this universe. But non-abstinence American sex-ed does not teach people to "fuck all they want."
You get the idea, western society is a lot more 'loose' in this regard. You can also stick a broom up your ass right now, you definitely have the freedom and right to, doesn't mean you should. Not to mention this sort of thing has effects (incl. psych/emotion) no matter how immune you think you are, I know westerners like to think "if it doesn't do harm it's not bad" but I'll say you people don't clearly see the extent of its effects.
As a parent, it's hard for me to walk away from my 2 year old son when he's crying. My ex-wife is always helicoptering around him too. I couldn't imagine leaving a completely defenseless, freezing baby in the middle of the fucking road as it's screams for it's mom. God this makes me so fucking angry. Just drop the baby off at the hospital if nowhere else! I hope the parents are found and locked up for life. If they can do this to a baby who knows what they can do to kids, adults even. Fucking scum.
I'm sorry, but I think the language barrier is preventing you from seeing opposing viewpoints. You seem to have some sort of bias against "westerners" and are setting up strawmen based on that ("westerners like to think...").
Patently false. I guarantee if you were raised by a tribe of cannibals from birth you would have a very different view of morality.
A part of me likes to think the parents planned for the baby to be found as quickly as possible, without any malicious intents. Leaving the child in the middle of the road is kind of dangerous though. I can imagine other ways to drop off a baby anonymously.. And safely. How do you know the parents were fucked in the head? Hell, what do you know about morality? What do you know about the reasons behind their actions? I mean, we can't rule out the possibility they were insane meth-heads, but more than likely just desperate, poor parents who wished their baby a better future by anonymously dropping the child off. Granted, they could have dropped her off in a safer manner, but still.
If they wanted her to have a good future they wouldn't have dropped her off on a rural road. They didn't care. That's obvious. Like lol how can you defend this fucked shit? It's disgusting.
There's a reason "dumpster baby" is a term. Because it happens. A lot.
