Baby Drop Box

The Associated Press is reporting on a new Japanese program where mothers who don’t want (or can’t take care of) their babies can drop them off anonymously.  There is a similar program in the U.S.

In the first year of the program in Japan, 17 babies were dropped off.

Interestingly 13 were boys and 4 were girls.

14 were less than 1 month old,  2 were less than a year old and one was a preschooler!  (talk about scarred for life)
