I think a special prayer needs to be said for the situation in Nebraska where parents have left children at "safe havens" under the states new law allowing them to drop children off without being charged for neglect, etc. Because the law says "children" and doesn't state an age, several have dropped off teenagers, including the two latest cases where 16-year-old's were left.Apparently one of the girls that was left, had no idea she was going to be dropped off until mom walked away.
Let that sink in for a bit....a mom and daughter walk up to the hospital, which is where the "safe haven" is located, and the mom tells the daughter to wait here and she turns around and walks away for good.
All I could do when I read that was say a prayer and try to share this with others of you who I hope will pray for this situation as well.
The article says that most of the kids whom have been left since July (26 total kids) have been older kids. I don't even know what to say about that right now. It's just so sad.
