Would You Consider Selling Your Baby?.. email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 96/100. eihdra (854)   ranked 182 out of 2,712 in children2 years ago

Some women here in my country, did consider selling their kids, (It's in the news)..They always say that because they are so poor and doesn't have money to feed the child, they opted to sell. They also say that, rather than the kid die of starvation or just end up in a dumpster, better to sell (not give) to those who cannot have children and at least the kid's life will be better..And there are those, intentionally get pregnant so they can sell the baby to the highest bidder..

Why get pregnant if you know that you're so poor and cannot afford another mouth to feed? Why do some women can still live their normal lives, after selling their babies?

Would you do it, if you are given the same circumstances?

Let's face it, some women are just really irresponsible and get pregnant because they're careless. They don't care about what happens to the kid as long as they get what they want. Some women just want the money and probably would sell their kid. I wouldn't sell my kid. I'd put my kid up for adoption if I couldn't afford to take care of my child. If I can't care of my child I'd hope that someone out there could adopt them and give them a really good home.

Me and my fiance havent had a baby yet,but if we did I know I would never sell it,just like I know fiance would agree with me,because it is wrong to sell your baby,even if you are poor,because it is your baby,your pride and joy,and you should be glad to have a bundle of joy,and you should take care of it because it is your responsibility.


myLot reputation of 96/100. eihdra (854)   ranked 182 out of 2,712 in children  2 years ago

I'm sure you'll both be good parents someday and will cherish your kids..thanks..

Yes I know she will be a good mom,and I hope I will be a good dad,and I know we will both cherish our child whenever we do decide to have one.

It is also ramphant here in our country. Honestly, I haven't think of it before but I myself is against this practice but I have changed my views upon seeing one real life story in the television. I was touched by that story and that became an eye opener to me.

If selling baby will not be avoided or if its the only answer to make the future of the baby a good one I definitely go for i but If it's for the good of the parents like those some who do it just to have something for their vices I don't go for that. For me it is not good to sell babies just to satisfy one's vice.

I also don't buy those stories who tells that they sell their babies because they can't feed them and they just get pregnant because it happens. I think as parents they can still control the situation. They can avoid getting pregnant if they only wanted to avoid selling their babies.

For the babies I think its much better for them to be sold to other people who are worthy to have babies rather than to stay with the parents who are not capable of taking care of them. BEsides for me its their own good since they will not be exposed to the bad society that the parents belong.


myLot reputation of 96/100. eihdra (854)   ranked 182 out of 2,712 in children  2 years ago

I do understand your view..but would you accept money in exchange for the baby or would set the baby up for adoption without any money involved?? Anyway, your opinion is highly appreciated and thanks for taking time to respond.. happy


myLot reputation of 92/100. ayessa (979)  2 years ago

Id go for adoption so that if my baby find out soon I can tell him that there is no money involve and what I do is just for his best.

sell or give??still not nice...

SOMETIMES people can be so irresponsible...
they just think for themselves..
make a baby then sell it...or give them away??not nice...
they dont deserve to be called parents..
let just think how the child would feel when they grow up?...
i hope that they think about that before they make one...
that they are poor...they cant support..
those babies are human beings...
even animals cant be sell that easy...
there are laws against it...
that is really not nice...

i wont do such a thing...
i made that baby...
a mistake cant be right by making another one mistake again...
i'm the one responsible for that child...
wanted or not wanted...
God gave it...so i have to accept it...
i will do everything i could just to support my baby...
and i know God is good...
he will help us...to survive...

i cant accept that reason....for me to sell my baby...
its still not enough for me to do such a thing...
its a crime...


myLot reputation of 96/100. eihdra (854)   ranked 182 out of 2,712 in children  2 years ago

i don't agree with the idea. if they know that they can't afford a living for their children why bear one. they should have thorough thinking about this. life is not a souvenir to be given away. and anyway,why sell? their own flesh and blood? to be sold. i would rather understand it if they have their baby to be taken care of someone who can give better future. but sell? no way! i am sick and i don't seem to have my own baby in the future. and it really hurts me. why can't they realize the value of bearing their own child.


myLot reputation of 96/100. eihdra (854)   ranked 182 out of 2,712 in children  2 years ago

sometimes, other people doesn't seem to care if they made a wrong choice..but for sure, karma is just around the corner..thanks angel..
