This am early doors a local stretch of road was closed off because a new born baby was found abandoned at a bus stop. It's made me sad to think that mum may well be a young girl who is scared and probably in need to medical help and attention. It's also made me think how lucky I am to have good parents who choose me and have loved me and brought me up to the best of their abilities. It's also made me think of my birth mother and the heartache she must of gone thro having to give me and all her other babies up.
Today if you can send your mums/sons/daughters your love, and if they are no longer with you send them your love in your thoughts.
Oh n don't forget the dads too.

"Jaysus that's pretty shocking stuff that PTU...The only thing I will say is that she put the baby at a bus stop so it would be seen.."
Yes I agree she must be so scared. Xxx |

"Seriously. Facebook! I came on here for titillation and the occasional wank. Not stories like this. At least put "abandoned baby" in your thread title so i can avoid it.  "
I agree, I don't watch the news so I don't have to see this kind of stuff, I don't look at it on Facebook and I don't really want to read it on here. So putting what it's about in title is a good idea. X |

Sometimes, when you're cocooned in your own little safe bubble, you forget about some of the awful things that are happening around you. The baby is safe but as others have said, you worry about the poor mother too. |

Such a shame to hear such news, hopefully the baby will be ok now it's in hospital and they find the mother, she must be very distraught and in need of help and support.
To those of you complaining about the thread title leading you to a sad story, reading the title should have been a good enough indication it wasn't a sex related thread and may have been depressing or upsetting, you should have avoided it in the first place of it bothers you that much. |

Sadly back in the 60s n 70s babies where taken off mothers far to readily. Now young mothers have more support. Xxx |

Sad news.
My mother was made to give up her first child at birth. We found each other 3 years ago and get on famously. She was lucky that she was adopted into a lovely family in Devon. Not the case for way too many people x |

I was brought up in care, first family i got sent out to weren't particularly nice (extreme understatement). They were fine up till the time the social workers decided their work was done and stopped visiting. |

That's crap. I don't realise how lucky I am until I hear other people's stories. It's therapeutic and grounding. Xxx |

families can suck. not sure if it's any reassurance that you've found them and at least know what they're like and have the choice of whether to bother with them or not. |

That's so sad. My grandad was a foundling, left on hospital steps as a newborn. Sad think some young woman didn't feel she had any other choice in this day and age. |

It completely is! I'm very glad I found them because it taught me so much about myself. I'd encourage and support anyone who wants to find there birth stories and families cos even if it doesn't work out the experience is for more therapeutic then any therapist or psychiatrist can give you. X |

It is it's heart breaking I've spoken to my oldest daughter today and told her if she's heard any rumers about the mum that she must tell. Obv assuming that I could be a teen. Xx |

There are certain things that bring on reminders. |
