Why are people saying anything n.egative about these boxes. These are mothers that love their child enough to want better for them. We don't know their story and have no right to judge a decision they couldn't have made lightly. ♥
don't think it's that easy "walks away"....they are putting baby in a safe place....not left in a alley or dumpster. ...or worst yet a toilet.
It’s not abandonment. An alarm sounds immediately and the child can receive any necessary health and placement rather than abortion, death, etc.
It's better than the mother's dumping them in the trash or leaving them in a plastic bag in a park?!?! I don't get it at all ... Half of y'all don't like abortions and don't want the mother to drop it off at a fire station, so what exactly do you want?!?!
I wish they had done this with me.... I was always called an accident. They didn't even put my Name on the expensive embossed Christmas Cards.... It was like I didn't exist. .....Every Year...I hoped my Name would be one of their Family on the Christmas Cards....never.... Leaving me in one of these boxes would of given me a chance to be loved....
inside the orange bag is a lot of resources/documents educating the mother on the safe haven laws and how to cope with her decision. It looks flats with zero contents in the videos but it holds the same paper work that you can probably obtain from your local health department.
People don’t dump or abandon there babies to a baby box they are hoping to give there babies a better life
These baby drops should be everywhere. In Indiana they have saved many many babies
Dump? How about verbiage that helps the mother feel more comfortable with her choice.
While this looks cold, it may prevent many infant murders🙏
“Dump”? Come on! I have adopted a “SAFELY SURRENDERED” child. The best thing that birth parent did for her child was to know she couldn’t take care of her. She made a conscious and loving choice instead of worse options. My daughter will know her tummy mommy loved her so much that she wanted the best for her and she couldn’t do that because she was “sick”.
The way they describe dumping the baby dump the baby and abandon it? Geez, I thought you wanted these boxes used. Keep describing like this gilt trip and all!
It gives the child a chance to live a decent life.
What kind of ahole insults someone for making the most difficult decision anyone could make?
How daee you call it dumping !! That is so revulsive, and disrespectful!!!Disgusting
Why would you use the word DUMP like a baby is garbage!!
it's not dumping....terrible headline!
Dump & abandon are not words that should be used when we're trying to save lives. Shaming is not the way to go here.
Why use the phrase dump? Are you bitter?
this happens much more often when women are deprived of safe birth control and have less abortion rights
Safe Haven Act....It's better than putting them in trash cans.
I don't know the statistics, but it seems that over the last few years there has been a terrible increase in the deaths of infants, toddlers and young children. Not by disease or accident, but by the hands of their own caregivers. Parents, parent and significant other, foster parents, have been charged with starving, beating, burning, strangling/suffocating and molesting the children before they died. Alabama's solution is the most merciful and safest way that any child could have, if the mother must give it up. Thank you, Alabama.
well at least their not being ripped from the womb and left to die alone Harris and tampon Tim are killingive f for they are murdering full term babies leaves them alone no one bring them any comfort it's vriel to carry babies full term it murder est Kamala murdering bitch and the tampon Tim are going to baby's room Tim shove about a ehome box up ur ass and nleed to death you givkinh vpumist mutdetier
better than throwing them in a dumpster
I don't like the way they say you can dump your baby or abandon the baby. The parent can surrender the baby she cannot provide at this time in her life for the baby. This is wonderful the baby is now safe and going to be cared for.
So much better then doing horrific things to babyGives baby a chance and for mom to give them up safely
wrong way of thinking. they are lovingly placing the baby in a safe place....
what's in the orange bag
better than aborting them at 9 months !
This is the best for the newborn and the mother. It is a lifesaving process and gives the newborn a chance at life rather than being discarded like trash.
I would not say dump or abandon, that's a terrible thing to say. The mother is making a choice to give her child a better life, she does not hurt the baby, but she's making a safe choice for the child. These should be all over the country, maybe there would be less murder, neglect and child abuse!
Inflammatory language. Safe place to make sure the baby is cared for when they carry a baby to term but can’t care for it.
Layne Harris ABORTION OR SLAUGHTERING A BABY IN THE WOMB IS NOT HEALTH CARE CERTAINLY NOT FOR THE INNOCENT DEFENSELESS UNBORN CHILD HOW IS THIS HEALTH CARE HELPING The BABY? YOU HAVE BEEN LIED TO OR ARE YOU THAT NAIVE. CALL IT WHAT IT IS KILLING YOUR BABY.
This idea came from an old MASH episode. Korean orphanage with Father McHalcahey.
Rewrite this headline because these babies are not dumped.
Much better than them killing them which I’m reading about almost daily. Good call Alabama!
I don’t like the term. Dumps! She’s not she made the choice to save this baby
🥲But…….HOW…..WHY???! My children are the GREATEST achievement of my life. Even with being a single father for many years…,they were worth EVERY MINUTE!!!🥲
Just so sad that this is happening .
What gets me?I started having sex when I was 18 years old.A lot of sex with my ex-wife.We never got pregnant till we were ready why can't these women understand that
As sad as this is, these young mothers are placing their babies in a warm, dry place. once they close the door an alarm goes off inside the firehouse to let them know a baby has arrived.
This has been a thing in AZ for years now.
then why have a baby
Well, I hope they find a good home for that plastic doll
Dump boxes is an awful term to use. These babies are being saved because they have a safe place where they can have a chance at life instead of being abandoned or killed.
They need these boxes everywhere. Lots of unwanted children being born then Neglected and abused.. they need parents who can care for them.
this is a great idea , this will definitely help decline in killing babies . I hope so anyway
Wish more people would use this instead of throwing the innocent baby in a trash can/trash dumpster. This way the poor little baby has a chance for a better life and not a life full of torture and starvation.
A thoughtful and caring mother who wants a better life for her baby.
WTF
so sickening
what does the orange bag contain?
well this need to be more info
what's the orange bag for
pathetic, this definitely a reason to strip women of their rights.
those boxes automatically call the paramedics/fire department as soon as that door is shut, the baby won't be in there for mor then 10 minutes
What's in the orange bag ??
What is the point of taking the orange bag and what is in that bag?
how often is this checked
What is the orange bag for?
Most places in America have SAFE places for women who can’t take care of their babies,so what
Well it's better than dumping a baby in the trash or killing the baby.
Every state has these. Why would anyone say anything against these . Have you ever heard of a young girl having a baby and letting them die or they kill them. If a Birth mother just puts them in these there's no questions asked. They're free to walk away. They will not be stopped. There at every hospital and Fire Stations .
Tbh this is better than abandoning them on the street or leaving them in dumpsters
Negative comments are MAGA
well, it's not abandoning, they are leaving them in a safe place to be cared for. it's to prevent mother's from unsafely abandoning their infants in front of homes and in ditches.
It must be the hardest walk she ever takes.God bless these mothers I could never do that.I choose abortion instead.😭💔
its not dumping them, its leaving them in a Safe Place! dumping would be in a dumpster or out in the woods somewhere, or worse. stop trying to attack them, bc this is doing the RIGHT THING
