Complete Disrespect For Life Follow-up....

It turns out that this story is false. The woman who reported seeing the baby tossed is actually the mother herself and has admitted to making the whole story up as a cover to hide the pregnancy from her family. She doesn't want the child, and will be giving him up for someone to adopt. She is currently under evaluation for psychiatric problems.

Thank God that this story is false. Just thinking about it again makes me mad. There has been an outpouring of love and support for "Johnny" (the hospital workers name for him). Everything from teddy bears to college funding have been offered. There have also been offers to adopt him as well. So this story looks like it will have a happy ending after all.

One question still troubles me. Where's the father? Does he even care what happens to his son? Apparently not. I wish that there could be some form of charges brought against him, be it child neglect, child abandonment, etc. After all, she didn't get pregnant by herself. Even with a hopeful happy ending, a sign of complete disrespect for life is here.
