Sorry, Safe Haven Baby Boxes Inc: Box-Dumping Your Baby is Not a Family Affair!
Even the most cursory observer of the SH movement, especially the box movement, knows that abandonment boxes are marketed to and used by single mothers “in crisis,” who for whatever reason–and often manipulated– believe that they have no other choice than to anona-dump their newborns. Baby boxes are baby-hiding machines. Most often the father is out of the decision-making process, ignored or ignorant of the pregnancy and birth. Their rights, along with the rights of the baby, are tossed in the dumpster, to compose a fairytale ending to a family tragedy.

Washington State Lawmakers Take the First Step on the Road to Hell. Safe Haven Baby Box Bill Pre-filed
Just in time for Krampus, Washington State lawmakers Rep Gina Mosbrucker, and Rep Lauren Davis pre-filed HB1888, a bill to amend the state’s safe haven law to include Safe Haven Baby Boxes as an “option” for desperate parents–what they mean is mothers–to dump an inconvenient newborn in a box in the wall at state-approved facilities, with no legal or moral consequences.

Crazy Claim: Safe Haven Baby Boxes Lower Infant Mortality Rates. Stats Show Differently

Fun at Safe Haven Baby Boxes
Now, I believe that SHBB Inc founder and CEO Monica Kelsey actually cares about these babies. She may love them. It’s not an act. She sometimes refers to them as “my babies.” She fantasizes occasionally that someday one of these (grateful) kids will grow up and take over the baby box company when she retires. Frankly, I don’t see her ever retiring because it’s much more fun and easier than her former job of firefighter/EMT, and there’s lots of free travel thanks to other people’s dimes.
West Virginia University Funds Safe Haven Baby Boxes; Cuts 28 Programs from the Curriculum
West Virginia University, has agreed to donate $16,000 to cover the partial cost of two Safe Haven Baby Boxes in Wheeling. That the state’s flagship institution of higher education–a public land-grant research university– is throwing money at such an ugly discriminatory misogynistic adopteephobic social experiment ( whew!) is so disgusting that I hardly know how to respond except with a big Barf You. Words fail. Perhaps you can give me some.
Guess Who Loves Safe Haven Baby Boxes
This crew runs a bigger soap opera than Days of Our Lives could ever dream up. They never miss a photo op. Neither does the baby abandonment company
National Adoption (Awareness) Month: Safe Haven Baby Boxes Juggernaut Continues
Nothing says National Adoption (Awareness) Month more than the current SHBB national juggernaut. We are just about halfway through this dreadful month, and seven new boxes have been opened–excuse me, blessed–so far. Another is scheduled to open this week. Who knows what’s in store for us for the rest of the month? Adoption is beautiful! Especially with no pesky parental strings, best practice, and ethics attached.
