Don’t Kill, Put Them In The Cradle!

Would you ever throw away a soul which is a part of you? I guess not! However, there are people who throw away foetuses or new born babies.Why is this even an option for the parents? Don’t they know the consequences of a physical relationship?

Before we get judgemental here, the relationship could not necessarily be out of irresponsibility, but could be a forced one, like in the case of rape. Another reason is extreme poverty and a bias against contraceptive methods.

Thank God there are solutions to avoid these terrifying acts. In Pakistan there is an NGO, Edhi Welfare Trust which keeps a cradle outside each office, urging people to put the babies they are planning to abandon in them, instead of harming them by throwing them on garbage dumps. Then later on these babies are given to childless couples or kept in orphanages.

This is a trend that has been adopted by some other social welfare organizations too. Please speak up for this change! Tell more people about it so innocent lives can be saved.
