Baby George-the newborn infant abandoned on a airplane trash can

This is such a shame! How can a mother do this to her child. An infant is helpless. A baby needs to have love and care and support. A baby is not a toy we can throw away when we can't cope. So many women can't have children and would do anything to have one. then we have mothers who dispose of children like unwanted trash. This is senseless and should not be tolerated!

That is a sad story, but do you know that a lot of mothers abandon their children in the hospitals. The nurses and doctors chip in to feed the babies. Sometimes one of them adapt the children.

I think that lady was upset to be attacked and then conceive a baby. It wasn't a pregnancy that she planned. Many ladies in that awful situation would have an abortion. Some ladies would have the baby and then have him or her adopted. I believe that is the right choice for the lady, her baby and the adopting couple. I believe that it was very bad of the lady to throw her baby in a trash bin on a plane. It is wonderful that she had discussions with professionals and got her head sorted out. I hope that now that the lady is going to be a loving parent to Baby George now she is a better person.

hello hippiemomdiaries! i think baby George should only be reunited with his birth mother after psychological and emotional evaluation of the mother, which would prove that she has been telling the truth of her alleged rape and ordeal and her current emotional and psychological state. it would be disastrous should the mother proved to be unfit to care for the baby, considering the way she abandoned her child on a trash bin! no sane mother, however hopeless her situation is, would leave a helpless baby on a trash bin!

I agree with the above comment in that the baby should not be returned without a thorough investigation. If she was raped, they how could she be so afraid of her husband's reaction that she would panic and throw a baby in the garbage? Is he that abusive? In which case it would not be a healthy home for a baby. Or is she lying and the baby was a result of an affair, in which case she was not mature enough to own up to her mistakes and take care of her child? Going through an unassisted labour and delivery in an airplane bathroom would make most people go into severe shock. It is likely that between the pain, shock, and hormones she had very little idea of the consequences of what she did, or of how much she would regret it later. If it is found that that is the case and she would be a fit mother, then she deserves another chance.

Yes.i am i believe the mother is just very confused and dont know what to do and because of that she can think right but after she was found and confessed everything that is the time her connection to the child can not be denied.There is no mother who can abandon her child but father yes many of them like my kids fathers very irresponsible.
