9 siblings among 11 kids abandoned under Neb. law - Yahoo! News
And why not?
If the state is going to make it clear that teen pregnancy is desired, which it has in a hundred ways from allowing abstinence only education, to failing to fund the development of male birth control, there are going to be unwanted children.
If it then is going to make it clear that parenting is not a choice, which it has by demanding school attendance no matter how under funded, inadequate, or unsafe.
If the state wants us to produce dim witted worker drones, which it does by making it clear that the only acceptable way to raise your child is in fear and domination, through control, and knowing that this method invariably fails.
In short if the state owns us and our children, which clearly it think it does, then they should be willing to take "children" of all ages.
The government is acting like an indecisive hypocrite, taken to an animal shelter wanting to help a kitten but finds only adult cats, and goes home.
Sure everyone wants to help a little innocent doe eyed baby, who through not talking lets you imagine its just like you only smaller. But when it comes time to help someone who you can tell by looking thinks you're full of it, suddenly its about beating them and blaming others so you can go home, am I right?
They talk a big game about responsibility, but how unfair is that from the childrens' perspective? "You mean I'm old enough to be homeless because my psycho fundamentalist mother kicked me out, but I'm not old enough to vote?"
The only time we treat children like adults in this country is when we put them in prison. And given the drug dogs, metal detectors, random searches, and laughably ineffectual uppity "rehabilitation" programs run generally by mindless fundamentalists of one stripe or another, school is getting damn close.
No. Its time for the government to put up or shut up. Either children are property, mindless slaves in need of training, or they are full human citizens with rights, privileges, and legal protection under the law the same as you and I.
This is just like all the screaming pro-lifers talking about abortion being an unneeded abomination in the face of adoption, but wouldn't go near an adoption center themselves to pick up and raise one of these 15 year old unwanted pregnancies if you put a shotgun in their mouth.

OMAHA, Neb. - Nine siblings are among 11 children as old as 17 who were left at Omaha hospitals Wednesday under Nebraska's unique and new safe haven law, which allows caregivers to abandon babies and teenagers alike at hospitals without fear of prosecution.
