“Seems kind of obvious... “
...Don’t store your babies in this container?
I wonder why they’ve added the warning label.
My family has been using those things to store babies for YEARS and WE’VE never had a problem.
My daughter has a close friend from Ireland who goes by Emjay. Short for “Emma Jane.” She’s a doll.
The “mother” was probably turning tricks to support her heroin addiction between methadone treatments.
Oops...forgot to mention that I used to work with a Barbara Jane once and she, too, went by her initials. I had a real hard time divining why a beautiful woman would choose to adopt those initials for her name. It was very hard to keep a straight face when talking to her.
I’ll be interested in learning the time of death. Could be the kid died before the addict left the house.
A co-worker of mine has a beautiful little 3 year old named Mary Jane.
I don’t know her all that well to ask her: “WHAT were you thinking?”
But I’m old. My co-worker is young. It may never have even occured to her what that refers to. And so what? Mary Jane is a beautiful name. Why let its connotations with marijuana stop you from naming your child that?
But, then again, it is apparently no worse than being left home with Eric Hicks.
Indeed - though I think your comment is fairly encompassed in mine... :-)
Note to all the druggie libertarians: this is another example of how drugs - somehow, someway - end up hurting innocent people, in this case someone who never even got a chance at life.
Maybe you should lay off the ‘drugs are a victimless crime’ crap and grow up.
So, what WERE the police doing there?
Maybe I’m old or naive, but the first two associations I came up with for “Mary Jane” were a penny candy and Peter Parker’s girlfriend. Marijuana didn’t even make the list.
How stupid is that sticker? Everyone knows babies cant read.
I had a friend who knew an expectant Chinese woman whom she tried to talk out of naming the child “Jane”.
“But I like that name,” protested the Chinese mother.
“Trust me,” my friend said. “You do not want to have a child named ‘Jane Do’. Just trust me on this...”
“He had an appointment at a methadone clinic, but instead of taking the boy with him or finding alternative care for him, he just left him there, alone in his crib. Sometime later the boy was found dead.”
Three words: Mommy’s new boyfriend.
Mommy’s new boyfriend was having drug cravings and killed baby in fit. More than likely boyfriend does not even remember doing it. OR Mommy’s new boyfriend so high on methadone he did it then and still does not remember it.
Either way Mommy’s new boyfriend strikes again.

“Emjay” oh, how clever, mom. NOBODY will figure out why you named him that.
“...penny candy and Peter Parkers girlfriend.”
Or a little girl’s patent leather shoes.
If only we could build the perfect totalitarian police state that is needed to crush all recreational drugs and drug users, 18-month-old children would never be neglected ever again.
