I'm not buying it
I'm always amazed when I read these stories about women (or sometimes girls) not knowing they're pregnant and giving birth unexpectedly. I read the following story on CNN:
Mother who abandoned newborn convicted of murder
A 27-year-old woman was convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison for leaving her newborn daughter in a Wal-Mart restroom last year. Defense attorney Elizabeth Lane had argued that Shorter did not intend to kill her child.
Lane said Shorter didn't know she was pregnant and panicked after giving birth in the Macon store restroom on August 14, 2005. She left the baby there on impulse, Lane said.
The 8-pound infant died five days later at a hospital.
Okay we're not talking about a little preemie here. An 8lb baby is BIG! And if you don't know that thing is in there after all that weight and kicking and punching then you must be severely deranged. And why do things like this always happen in a Wal-Mart? Why can't people have babies by mistake in some classier joints, like Target or Home Depot. It's just a sin.
