“If we see another family being left off, then we’re going to have to do something immediately,” state Sen. Arnie Stuthman, who introduced legislation that was the basis for the law, said…”

WTF! They pass a law and find a huge, tragic need in society, so instead of dealing with the problem they plan to change the law and make the problem go away. One of the parents who dropped off older children was the father of 9 who was widowed last year. He couldn’t deal with grief and family. What do these people think he would have done if he had not had this option? Too many times it seems that desperate parents resort to desperate means – murder/suicide being the most newsworthy. I imagine there are a lot of nasty situations that arise which don’t make the news when an over stressed parent has nowhere to turn.

You know what? This shows that the Nebraska powers that be were only worried about newborns. You get to be old enough to talk back and they don’t care anymore. They might believe that a fertilized egg is a fully autonomous human being but an eleven year old is just a parasite on society. I do not understand this push to protect the “unborn” while at the same time ignoring the “born”.
