PAMPHLETS IN SCHOOLS
Newborn "safe haven" law to be explained

05/23/06
TRENTON: Pamphlets explaining state law that allows mothers to
anonymously surrender newborns to the state would be made available in
public schools under a bill approved Monday by a 77-0 vote in the
Assembly. It still needs Senate consideration.
The bill requires that pamphlets be made available to students in
grades 7 through 12 and that posters be displayed in school nurses'
offices and health education classrooms.

The law allows a mother who cannot care for her newborn to leave the
baby at a police station or hospital without being subject to criminal
charges.

Gee, I thought a mother could already do that?  It's called adoption. Or
have all those parents who have taken the thought and care to design an
ethical legal adoption plan for the last 100 years in the US been subject to
arrest and prosecution?  But then they didn't hide behind the skirts of the
Nanny State.   Safe Havens:  Socialism at it's finest.

I think it's a capital idea to teach children the correct method of
abandoning babies. We all know how respectfully children absorb these
moral lessons doled out through state-run schools, just look at the War
on Drugs, begun while I was in middle school, and still keeping bean
counters, law enforcement and the prison industry busier than ever
thirty-five years later. Schools that have never seen a single teen mom
abandon a baby can look forward to their first, thanks to the cajoling
and sobbing of the Baby Dump industry. I'm proud to have seen the birth
of your little cottage enterprise, keep up the good work and the total
number of infants abandoned annually will rise from the dozens to the
thousands nationwide in no time. More tragedy, more opportunities,
right Mr and Mrs Pimpenstein?
