Comments on baby boy found in Rosettenville Clinic’s toilet

ROSETTENVILLE – Most people were outraged by the mother who left her one-day-old baby boy in Rosettenville Clinic’s toilet; here are some of the responses from our web site (www.southerncourier.co.za) and Southern Courier’s facebook page:

“I suppose that you could call this inhumane, when you hear of the horrific stories you read about every day, when it comes to our innocent angels. There is so much contraception readily available today, yet these young girls still find a way of falling pregnant. Extremely sad. Bless this little innocent, may this baby find hope.” – Bernice

“It’s so sick, hope when she is found, she gets her punishment. There is a place called the Door of Hope, she wasn’t supposed to put him in a toilet of all places! What people do today if they don’t want kids, then use a condom, but I hope she is found and they punish her for what she did. Shame, so small, does not know what’s going on. It just makes me so sick.” – Monica Jackson

“People should abstain from sex and use contraceptives to prevent unwanted pregnancies. Bringing babies into the world and abandoning them is just cruel and wrong.” – Mrs Q Campbell

“She dumps this one, and carries on to make another one. What happened to children being gifts from God, please save that poor soul?” – Sam Nxuma

“How can she just dump him and walk away? Has she no feelings, why didn’t she just hand him over to reception? Women like her should be found and arrested. That poor baby never asked to be put on the earth in the first place, poor kid!”- Margaret Van Loggerenberg

“Sad.” – Thandeka Damoied

“Another irresponsible adult in our community, certainly not a parent….disgusting.” – Jennifer Cindy Ramsden

“I don’t think that anyone should be judging the circumstances of others unless you willing to help financially. I am just glad that she left the baby warm and at the clinic. People are suffering with disappointments on this earth daily. Lord Jesus open the doors for both the mother and the little baby.” – Gaylinn
