Heavy chargers for baby dumpers
The media had reported many baby dumping cases recently. Body in dustbin, body found by scavenger and baby girl found in factory dustbin. This show we human had become so evil due to pressure of having baby outside the wedding wedlock. Sure enough, the women who in stress can only thinking of dumping their child.
The government had create a baby hatch set up by ORPHANCare on 29 May 2010. This is a good decision. On 13 August, the cabinet decided that baby dumpers will be charger with murder (www.thestar.com.my). Both is a good decision to reduce the baby dumping by the mother/parents. Definitely, if this decision is not make, more and more baby dump by the irresponsible mother/parents. I'm happy that we have this to reduce the baby dumping. But, bare in mind this is a short term solution. If we want to reduce pregnancies, sex education is must put in place. To do this is a gargantuan task and school curriculum have to be change.
Sex education should not only limited to school, the Churches also play and important role to educate its followers about this. In Sunday School, there should be some time allocated for sex education and it consequences.
It's sad to see in the news everyday about baby dumping. The parents also have the responsibility to play when educating their children. As Jackie Chan said in the movie The Karate Kid, 'There is no bad student, only bad teachers'. I am a parent myself, let us educate our children about this problem. Not to encourage them to have sex but to educate them the consequences.
