Is the need that bad here? Oh wait, Midland does have a high teenage pregnancy rate.

There is a high teenage pregnancy rate EVERYWHERE! Not just Midland. We need to take more responsibility as Adults when our kids are out sleeping around.

I'm confused, too, by the 60 day-old limit. Someone who has initially tried to raise a baby but ultimately finds she cannot should not have such an arbitrary cut-off. It's not like we have lots of 61 day-olds out there taking care of themselves.

Maureen, that 60 day age limit does seem arbitrary. When asked at the news conference whether the mother of a 90 day old child would be prosecuted, Al Shore, the DA, wouldn't say yes or no but only that the law provided the safe haven drop off as a defense to prosecution.

Hi Wallace, it is amazing that they allow this without information; medically speaking. Although they must infer that children under the age of 60 days were born in a local health care facility.

Where is accountability? There are so many children unloved, and unwanted yes but there has to be a sense of responsibility by giving life, and then letting it go...

I love your comment about the "age" cut-off, and yes "21" might be better than 18...

Peace Out!
