I can understand in certian circumstances how the parents might not know. For my own expirience: My sister-in-law (a nurse no less) didn't know herself she was pregnant until she went into labor. She suspected, of course, but all the tests (including doctors office tests) came back negative. She weighed in at 98 lbs max and was trying to gain weight. She gained 10 pounds and thought she was doing well. She confided in my wife that things weren't right, but thought it might be a case of having too low a % of body fat to have a period. I ate lunch with her 3 days before she went into labor. I didn't have had a clue. BTW her second child bearing experience could have been a copy of the first but she knew what to look for the second time and "discovered" she was pregnant at 3 months using ultrasound. Horomone tests didn't work on her for some reason and she just didn't gain weight and carried the baby very high. Both boys were in the 6 lb range when born and are totally normal at the ages of 9 and 11. Their mother is still a rail at 5'6" and approx. 100lbs
On to the subject at hand: This girl has serious issues. I don't know what else to say... Very sad [:(]. Kent |

Man that's sick. She must be one fatass teenager to be able to hide a full term baby.

Terrible.
Where are the parents? How could you be that distant from your own children? |

So sad. If society would focus more on the options available after birth instead of murdering them in the womb, maybe this wouldnt happen as often.

This just pisses me off to no end. My wife and I have one child and are (hopefully) expecting our second. Each one required us to go through infertility ...wife on hormone pills, shots etc and then me getting to jerk off into a cup....(DukeNukem, can I borrow that hand lotion?) Doesn't sound like much to go through, but when it is you and every month that the treatments failed you are heart broken. (not to mention having your wife jacked up on extra female hormones brrrrrrrrrrrrr.....) Then to read how kids are throwing their babies away. Grrrrrrrrrr. Fuck em. If they are that much of a POS that they can KILL a defensely baby, I say death penalty. FUCK HER she is 17 therefore an adult. That scumwad in CA who killed a baby while still unborn got charged with it. Send a nice loud message out to all the lil teenagers who think that it is ok to throw away a defenseless life, do it and we will throw yours away too. I am so pissed when I read that shit. /rant off/

I work with a guy who's wife went through menopause when she was 12. She had one normal period, and that was it. no more. No chance for them to have a kid. They are going through the whole adoption process. It is heartbraking for them to read about this type of stuff. Here they WANT to have a child and can't...this 17 yo had sex, got pregnant, hid it from her family, gave birth and killed the baby. She didn't want the child...but others do. My friend and his wife have to jump through hoops and do a dog and pony show to prove that they are worthy of having a child. Seventeen-year-old Kristen Cleaver didn't have to do any of that, and she is definitely NOT worthy of having a child.
Life is twisted in some ways....this being the most cruel. |

This happens regularly. I hear about this in the news from time to time. I think it has more to do with the fact that females live on the edge of insanity. Then the hormones kick in.
I'm not saying that this is excusable, just that there seems to be a pattern. Maybe the parents should have been more involved. Supposedly sane women do this to unborn fetuses every day. |

I hope that this girl cannot have any more children.
I hope she hears her baby's cry whenever she closes her eyes. I hope she sees her baby whenever she closes her eyes. Perhaps we can find a small group of the Taliban somewhere and send her to them for proper treatment.... I know all sin is equal in God's eye, none being worse that the next, but I am having a real hard time seeing that way right now. |

Morally there's so little difference in a 17 year old mind from a parcial birth abortion and a post birth abortion that she'll walk.

Killing is killing wheather it is at the 1st trimester, 1 month old or 18 y.o.! Sgtar15 |

I am the father of tiplets (thus the screen name). My wife and I tried for a long time to get our three beautiful babies. It always amazes me when young mothers kill their babies. Young parents often seem to lack an understanding of the amazing thing they that is pregnancy. I am not a big fan of saying "society needs to ...", but society really needs to emphasis life and the options for the babies other than abortion/murder. As many of the posts show, there are many couples who could provide a wonderful home for these kids. What a tragedy.

Maybe I'm being a Keyboard Coroner here, but WTF was in the baby's lungs? Was it bathwater or whatever the hell is in the womb? I would think there's a chemical difference between the two. |

If she kept the child underwater, the fluids might never even have drained from the lungs.

Before Birth = a blob of tissues/nonlife/right of the woman to control her own body.
A few minutes later... After Birth = a newborn baby, life. Killing it brings murder charges. This is the best example of the logical fallacy that supports abortion. |

Canoe how can your sis not know she was pregnant? Did she think she had an alien in her belly when it kicked and moved around? Besides not having periods, when you feel the baby move, there is no mistaking a pregnancy especially in someone so thin. Large fat women have do have undetected babies all the time. The question with them is who got them pregnant! But if she is thin as you say, she has BIG issues. Serious denial.

This is sickening! I don't know how or why anyone could do this. No explanation she could come up with would be excusable. Sure her parents should have been more involved and aware of what was going on but that is no excuse for what she did. She is old enough to know right from wrong. Afterall, she is almost old enough to be considered a legal adult. It is sad that this teenager puts such little value on a human life. Why would she put it in a garbage bag and place it in her closet? Did she think the bag would preserve it or something; didn't she know it would decompose?

Ok, so it IS legal for a woman to kill her unwanted baby...sick! You fail to realize it doesn't swing both ways...the baby is NOT a part of the mother, its only 1/2 of the mother. They do NOT share blood as the placenta PREVENTS exchange of blood. A baby is a human life from conception to death...its survival is dependent on the mother for the first 7 months, after that, it can live with mechanical means...neonatologists are down to saving 16 ounce babies...A FREAKING POUND! And despite the liberal goronic claims, there is NOT an overabundance of babies available for adoption. Matter of fact, there is a shortage. |

The question with them is who got them pregnant! But if she is thin as you say, she has BIG issues. Serious denial. Baby did not move until it "dropped" at the time labor began. As I stated in the post she is so thin she looks anorexic (she is not). My wife, her sister, is 5'9" and 120lbs. The thinness runs in the family. The "fat" ones have normal height weight ratios (wife is 1 of 9). As I said, I had lunch with her 3 days before I went to see her in the hospital. While in the hospital the baby moved very much. But before then she says no movement. She is a trustworthy person and had no reason for denial. She was married but on birth control. no reason to expect a child. BTW she stopped the B.C. about 3 months into the pregnancy due to her suspicions. BUT...(as I said) All tests came back negative, even doctors tests. She was not in denial, she suspected, but was repeatedly told "You are not pregnant". The doctors weren't sure if she was full term when she went into labor. They stopped her labor with drugs and sent her from the small town hospital to a regional hospital were "specialists" determined she was full term and she gave birth four days later (because of the delay induced by drugs). As I said, again, her second child duplicated the same pattern again. So, for her, this is "normal" but not normal, obviously, for the rest of the world. Kent |

Quoted: Green_Canoe, Your sister is an idiot. Sgtar15 Did you take the time to actually read and comprehend my post. One clue to me is I was speaking about my sister-in-law not my sister. Read my first post and the above post by me carefully. I realize you are very opinionated, but it's not nice to call people names when you don't know what you are talking about. On my honor, these are the facts as I understand them. Kent Edit to add: My intent was not to hi-jack this thread with my sister-in-laws birth expirience. But rather, to point out it is possible for somone to carry a baby to term without anyone knowing and not be a total fat ass. |
