Why does the state need to do it?
You can drop one off at my house any time
I will make sure it gets taken care of by the authorities and keep it safe until it does.
We should create a national LOGO that anyone who is willing to do this can put on their window
How do we know you aren’t Big-Fat-Ugly-Bug-Face-Baby-Eating O’Brien?
Your house & mine - yes, good places to drop off an infant.
I’d be afraid however, that there would be those who “traffic” in babies who would abuse the system.
Which is not to say that this couldn’t also happen at a fire-station drop. But at least we’d have a better chance of some accountability there (camera’s, witnesses, etc...)
I think yours is not a bad idea, but I do think that all volunteers for such a program should undergo background checks and training for the proper care of an infant/small child.
