lol i havent beena round other countries so i really cant say ive seen anything happen like this at all, just a little on the shocked side, especially at a toilet convient store =/

It happens all over the place. Some places you just don't hear about it because it's so common. Third world countries, for example. There were a couple of cases in the UK too in recent years. A baby left on the street, and another one in a duffel bag in a car park.

I know things like this happen all over the world, but it's horrible to think of. It's terrible knowing that some women think their only option is to do this because of their circumstances, I think there should be a better range of options available to EVERYONE despite their country or religion. Maybe some day things like this will stop, or at least be rare.

Fire Phasers!!...............wait that's a different Forum.

Even in locations where there are numerous options, women often don't take any of them. It isn't so much the lack of options, but the fear that someone somewhere will find out. Even if there are anonymous baby centers on every corner, free abortions at every clinic, etc... There will still be women who are too scared of someone finding out. And they are the ones who find themselves in labor in a public toilet and in a panic.

Yeah, that's true. But having said that, I can't help feeling that if they had more options to avoid becoming pregnant in the first place (certain religions being against birth control etc) that might have made things like this less frequent.

Obviously though, even with all options for all people of all ages/races/religions etc, some people choose against it and then panic and do things like this :/

Life is one choice after another.

This happened here in South Carolina a few months ago, someone left a new born in a suitcase at a grocery store bathroom :/

I guess a suitcase is a step up from a trash can... But still, a bathroom? :/

Life is of little value these days so why would anybody be surprised by these events?
