Mag on Fathering, Mothering, Parenting..a child..

My mother sometimes says, a person would never UNDERSTAND the joy & pain of having & raising a child until (s)he has one of her/his own..... 

This she always say when one of us disobey her words, being rebellious & wanting things our own ways....and she would always say those words with teary eyes....

As of now, I haven't really FEEL her words as I haven't  got  a child of my own. 

But, there're some much younger girls out there who  already endure at least the 'pain' of having a child. 

But somehow, they refuse to experience the 'joy' of HAVING & RAISING one. Solution? Dump the baby some places with high probability of people finding 'it'. Wrap 'it' with a piece of cloth, with a note attached sometimes, or just dig a hole in isolated places & put the poor thing inside...


Cruel?? Inhumane??


I am not in the position of judging those girls' decisions. I guess it's an example of cause & effect event. Then, some unpleasant consequences. Labelling stigma etc....


So, yeah, people ask, what is happening??? 


The answer is in our hearts.
