Abandoned Infants
Bravo to Orangewood and other shelters that receive with love the abandoned babies, and a curse on society’s hypocrites who see the mothers (and sometimes fathers) of these infants as “pigs” and drive them underground when they become pregnant.
When these girls and women are treated with even a fraction of the reverence shown to women who are married and expectant, then we might see an end to the abandonment of helpless infants by their equally helpless mothers.
