In my youth, when I was a student, I did an internship in the maternity ward, taking care of premature babies. When they grew up, many went to orphanages, and other premature infants took their place. Initially, I reacted very painfully to this. After all, they are only premature at first, then they become entirely normal children. At some point, I sought to understand why they were abandoned.
Naturally, I couldn’t see the mothers who had already made such a decision. But I saw many mothers who were very close to such a cruel decision. They were no different from other women in labor and were in a common room. Exhausted by many hours of contractions, sleepless nights, but many of them radiated happiness.
Many of them stayed in the department for more than a day. Once, I witnessed a terrible scene. The new mother didn’t react at all when her baby was urgently transported to intensive care and died. I even thought she let out a sigh of relief.
This might be the effects of postpartum depression, but I have a different opinion. I believe these are immature mothers, these grown-up children. Many of them can’t take care of themselves, and here is a child. They are not to blame for their immaturity, but their parents are. These are the consequences of “greenhouse children.” They weren’t prepared for adult life.
Therefore, don’t be surprised if your daughter has abandoned a child; if you constantly spoiled her and didn’t show her the real world.
