I have a sibling that was born early, and our parents were told that the baby would die because it was underweight, so just take it home to let it die. Our parents left the baby alone and detached themselves emotionally, but the baby did not die.
That baby was miserably abused by both parents because they did not want it, then it's birth was expensive, it refused to die, and so they had to keep it.
That baby grew up to have no morals, mentally slow, criminal minded, and abusive. The child was never loved, never held, never wanted. I have no idea where my sibling is today.
I am certain that had this innocent baby been wanted, loved, born into a different family, the resulting adult would have been a different person. |
