What do you do with a mother who does the unthinkable?

Meredith Borowiec wasn’t difficult to catch. Even as the Calgary police rescued an abandoned newborn boy from a trash bin in October 2010, she sat on the steps of her apartment building, quietly watching. When an officer approached to ask if she’d seen anything suspicious, he immediately noticed the blood staining her coat and pajama bottoms. It was in the ambulance that she confessed to having given birth and trying to dispose of the child. When detectives began to examine her history, she admitted to having done the same thing—but with fatal consequences—twice before. “I was horrified with myself,” Borowiec tearfully told a detective. The 2008 and 2009 abandonments, after having kept her pregnancies secret from her long-time partner and given birth alone, were akin to “out of body” experiences. “It was like something took over me. It was like I wasn’t in control.” She wasn’t even able to provide the sex of her dead children.

What is the real difference between this and procuring an abortion? Why is one horrifying, and the other simply a choice?

There is no difference.

It was an ‘after-birth abortion’

seconds earlier it could have been a ‘partial birth abortio’

WHAT DO YOU DO? Sterilize her so she never has to be so traumatized, or faced with the decision to kill another baby, again.

No, we want to do something where she will be on a public welfare program for the rest of her life. Maybe we can send her to classes.

The “real” difference is none. The “political” difference is another matter.

i am so sick of libtard journalists who express shock at moms who do this to newborns yet celebrate and send abortion cards to each other when a woman aborts a child for whatever reason.

they are stone cold mother-fu@@@ng hypocrites. And they pass this trash writing off as to appear shocked and ‘how could a mother do this’?!? baloney. They know exactly how a “mom” could do this.

They’ve done it 55+ million times. Abortion devalues life. Libtards including journalists preach and screech it’s not a kid until it’s out and breathing on its own. forty years of this gives you a kenyan marxist president who votes for infanticide. Why an abortion five minutes before birth would be fine but five minutes after delivery isn’t, these people don’t think there’s a problem.

And they feign this shock and unbelief, to try to get us to believe it mortifies them when they write their phony outrage headline.
