Week old abandoned baby discovered alive in desert near Nonidas A member of the Swakopmund public discovered a crying week-old baby in the Nonidas area on Saturday morning. The infant is believed to have been abandoned and a hunt is now on to locate the baby's mother. The public is urged to come forward with any possible information that can lead to the location of the mother. Mariette Brand gee haar somer vir my!! los maar die soektog na die ma! as sy haar baba kan los vir die wilde om te kry, wil sy tog sobyso niks weet van die baba nie! glo my GOD slaap nie! tannie se klein Isabella - "devoted to God" betekenis in Hebrew! Carlene Kisting Die baba moet sommer Isabella gedoop word. Dis ‘n pragtige naam en betekenis nog mooier. Hoe kry n moeder dit reg? Mariette Brand og wee jy dit breek my hart in stukke! wens sulke mamma's wil die engeltjie voor my deur kom los...ek sal haar vir my hou soos my eie! tannie se klein Isabella! dink ook so hulle moet haar so in seën met die naam...pas soooooo bitter mooi by haar! ons eie klein vegtertjie! Dolly Marcelino I also don't understand the Namibian Government if u dump a baby u are charged with child neglect if u leave it at the hospital or church like this girl in Omaruru they still look for you and charge u with child neglect so what are these ladies to do if they don't want a child or can't effort one and don't tell me about family planning I have seen nurses insulting girls abt it. Bokkie Scholtz True. And if they kill the child then they ask why did she kill the baby instead of just leaving it somewhere. Dolly Marcelino If leaving the child alive brings you in trouble and killing the child brings you trouble what is the point. Dolly Marcelino Lorraine I am not condoning what she has done I am a mother myself there are not much options for ladies who don't want the baby once its born I know of a lady that did not want the baby she left it at the hospital but the police went to look for her and charged her with child neglect but the normally say come leave the bby here no questions asked like really. Bobby Griebel Stop fucking around!! These womens who dump a child once must undergo forced sterilisation!! Hulda Tulonga Shaninga You can leave the kid in the hospital or take the child to any church. no one will judge u. you can't just leave New born anywhere alone..it s a human being for God sake. Dolly Marcelino Hulda Tulonga Shaninga plz do
refer to my comment on top if nothing else please speak when spoken too. Memory Kangueehi Very good question asked Dolly. The procedures if you have a baby or even a grown up child that you don't want or can't take care of you should contact the Gender Based Violence offices which is a sub division in the police and share your Concern. You will surely get assistance YES! Leaving a human being of any age at a place you regard the safest ( hospital/church) is wrong and considered a crime because you are leaving that helpless person unattended to. But if you leave your child with someone at those places that person is likely to take the child to the police and further arrangements will be made. Memory Kangueehi I believe I am clear. Dolly Marcelino Why do the hospital/police always say after finding a dump baby leave the baby at the church/ hospital/ police station no questions asked why would a lady that is already concealing the pregnancy still want to talk to someone from gender and equality if she can't even speak to her parents or partner. Denise Van Bergen Bobby Griebel And the father must be traced and sterilised as well, please????? Piet R Gaingob Why is it so hard just to leave the baby at a police station or the hospital than commit crime thats inhumane to the new born child full of possibilities. I am so Lost...i can not comprehend at least Namibia is not develop, has well structure policy and agencies that can assist mothers who cant help themselves. Michelle McBrown Hairston I hope they find her, lock her up for life with no parole and no bail! Just dump a poor defenseless little baby who cannot fend for herself. Luckily she was discovered on time so I thank God for that. Cheryl Valentine Abortion is Not the answer prevention is better than cure. There are places of safety where they can take their babies but leaving a helpless human baby to die is cruel, callous and murderous. Karin Koberzig There should also be no bail for child dumpers and these women should be locked up. Don't open your legs if you know that you can get
pregnant.! Maurice Connor Or you know, instead of reacting psychotically there could be a needed and legitimate discussion on abortion. Karin Koberzig I see abortion as murder and would only agree in rape cases. Albertina Nampa Titus That heartless mother does she want 2 say she is no more going 2 have sex nd fall prgnt or wht ,ladies lets stp abuseng kids tht re jus angles. Vallery Uiras Oh women og I don't know what to say speechless really and thank you father she is ok. Maurice Connor This country needs to move into the 21st century and legalise abortion, this will keep happening until it does. Retha Booysen van Rensburg So, rather kill the baby before it is born is much better??? A baby with life, with a heartbeat, allready alive???!!! Judene Van Wyk Aborsie is moord!!
