I didn't realise newborn babies receded back into the womb

p.s. a newborn baby cannot be put on the same level as a fetus

my dad is adopted, i don't see why more people just try that.

but i don't have the same problems they're going through i suppose

[QUOTE=Zeke129;30645434]You're entirely missing the bigger picture that we can learn from this, there's no way a 16 year old can look after a kid on their own and there is a huge lack of support for them. Very rarely does it actually get this bad but far too often we see young parents abandoning their kids or attempting to give themselves an abortion because they're ashamed and have nobody to turn to.

Mental health services for kids and especially for young parents is severely lacking and the social stigma attached to being a parent that young (something that has displayed itself in this thread already) is one of the reasons for this.

And I'm extremely sure this wasn't just a lack of compassion as you seem to think, stop oversimplifying everything.[/QUOTE]

While you have a good point. Its their fault they landed themselves in this situation. They were being reckless and careless. And I know by the law, being reckless and careless does not excuse you of your own stupidity. Its this simple not thinking shit through behaviour is rather old. I understand the situation they are in, and in always in hindsight its 20/20. But when this happened she should have grown a fucking spine and tried to get help. Regardless what you think that mental health services, even family services, they do help. Regardless of your age, there is some sort of help available.

Is it just me or she doesn't look like a murderer?

And somehow, she doesn't look 16.
