Newborn baby found in garbage pail
Sunday, September 12, 2010

Oh my God! What went through the mother's mind when she threw away her precious baby in a garbage pail of a passenger plane's restroom? Original article
The article states that Filipino cleaners found the baby in a garbage pail and was immediately rushed to the hospital. He's healthy and well up. While social welfare is taking care of the little baby, they are trying to search for his parents. They named him Jorge Francis.
My Reaction to the article:
The plane from Bahrain, which flight destination was the Philippines, Manila, thus, I assume that the mother was a Filipina, who came from abroad to go back to the Philippines, was overwhelmed with panic upon realizing what disgrace she would have to face when she sees her family. Because I know for a fact that, just like some other Eastern cultures, the Filipino culture is a bit strict and conservative when it comes to unmarried mothers, all the more if they didn't meet the father. Maybe she was already a married mother, returning from her work abroad, gave birth to a bastard child, and didn't want her husband finding out about this baby. Who knows?
Did she withheld her pregnancy from her family? Since there's only little information in the article, that there were no signs that the mother gave birth on the plane, only that the baby is a newborn, thus, only a few hours old, I was thinking: was she cradling her baby boy in her arms throughout the entire flight only to dispose of him once the plane reached its destination? The flight from Bahrain to the Philippines takes about 12 hours. Did she plan this 12 hours long? Did she feed her baby, cuddle him one last time, and kiss him goodbye? Did she cry and look at him in the eye, before she headed for the restroom to dump him in a garbage bin? Was she hoping that her baby would be found by the cleaners?
My heart's clenching every time I read articles like this! :(
God bless you, Jorge Francis, and I hope a loving and caring family will find you and give you a new home.

Hot Men Cuddle Cute Babies

I really really think that this man is hot. It's Ben Cohen and his daughter Isabelle. This is the perfect image of my Mr. Right. :D (No, not the good looks, or that he's built like a brick shit house, but the fact that he adores children.)"Doting dads and their little bundles of joy"
I, myself, grew up without a father. As far as I remember, my father wasn't a doting dad or lovey-dovey husband. That's why for long and while he was still alive, I actually did believe he and my mom didn't hold any romantic feelings for each other. And not just because of the lack of affection, but because of the many rows and fights I've witnessed between them.
This may just be wishful thinking, but I think I was his little favorite. Because wherever he went, he took me with him. And if memory serves me correctly, there wasn't a single moment where he scolded me or beat the crap out of me. I can't be sure though if I really was his favorite. It wasn't that he spoiled me to pieces and called me his little princess that made him my favorite parent.
Now I'm wondering why I find men that cuddle and adore children very attractive when my own father was the opposite of what I liked in men? I thought, though was aware that it's not a set rule of nature, that daughters actually marry their fathers, that they look for men exactly like their fathers.
