There are many laws, many rules, in fact, that seem almost like a good idea. Without the, I suppose, the road to hell would never be paved with good intentions. Case in point is the State of Nebraska and its “Safe Haven” law which was passe for all the right reasons.
What are those reasons? The law enabled distraught, unstable and otherwise messed up mothers to dump their children at a fire station or hospital, rather than abandon them, totally. Clearly, the Nebraska Legislature had its hard in the right place when it passed this bill a couple of months ago. What this means in general is rather than drop a kid in a dumpster or leave him on the street, an irresponsible parent can legally relieve himself of the bouncing baby.
The thing is, the same Legislature didn’t foresee the challenges in not putting an age limit on the kids left behind. But since then people have been driving in from distant states to drop their kids on the doorsteps of Nebraska institutions. Sometimes these kids are a little older than bouncing babies, like seventeen years old. In fact nearly three dozen kids were dropped off. None of them were infants.
One poor kid was left calling after its mother, “I’ll be good, I’ll be good.” But the mother kept right on walking. Amazing. The allegedly lesser developed mammals don’t abandon their young. But for some of us, this is obviously plausible.

Now I hear people are abandoning their pets due to difficult economic times. I realize also we have all seen the vintage black and white movies where the distraught but guilt and depression ridden Mom leaves her kid on the doorstep. But for adult to leave their somewhat advanced children to the fate of the State is beyond the imagination of many. In fact, it is pretty deplorable.
Maybe the so called problem kids are better off without these parents. Maybe they will be allow to straighten out and lead productive lives whereas living with destructive Moms and Dads would result only in their own destruction. With these things it is always difficult to say.
If this weren’t so sad, so pathetically deplorable it would almost be funny. It is not funny. But it is telling. It tells about some of us and what our sense of responsibility and accountability is, even with raising our very own children. In some ways, that is beyond words.
The Nebraska Legislature has seen the error of its decision. It is amending the law to stipulate only newborns. It is a wise choice. Still, there are at least dozens of people out there who are seriously considering abandoning thei childen. Some have already done so. The rest were either ignorant of the law or merely too lazy to make the drive.
