19. I have felt helpless before. Not in a situation such as this,
but I have most certainly felt like there was no one out there who understood how I felt or what I was going through. But I got help. I take responsibility for my own actions. 26 years old doesn't mean wisdom, but it does mean you have to take responsibility. Like I said, I see your point of view. But there were options for this woman. She could have dropped the baby off at a hospital anonymously. She may not have known that, but I am fairly sure she knew putting a helpless child in a garbage can wasn't the right thing to do. It is a tragic situation, but thankfully the baby was saved in time.
