Based on Bukit Aman Police Headquarters statistics found a total of 580 babies were found dumped between year 2000 to 2006. This number of cases increase every year where as much as 65 baby abandonment cases has increased to 83 cases in the year 2006. In the first 5 months, almost everyday there are reports on dumped baby cases.You read it on the front page of the newspaper or see it on the nightly news...a newborn baby found in a back alley. This scenario had been more serious from day to day although there are a lot about this in the mass media.
Mostly,among teenagers always seen to be involved in this situation. Teenage parents give birth in a motel room and leave the child for dead in a dumpster. A girl gives birth in a school bathroom at night. throws the baby into the garbage or in the toilet.These stories relate to one of the most frightening realities of our culture today: some children are viewed as problems to be thrown away rather than gifts to be treasured.

The hope is that, by offering an alternative to dumping, women might leave their children with people who can help the baby. Surprisingly, these cases have got a lot of attention from the community. So, what are the best opinions and ways that should be taken to prevent this scenario from spreading?

DeFiNiTiOn Of BABY ABANDONMENT
The phrase has a different, broader meaning in common speech, where it typically refers to babies who are not born in hospitals and are left in unsafe places by their parents.1 There is a separate group of children who are defined as abandoned by state law. The many categories of children labelled abandoned leads to confusion. Although it may be impossible to change the naming of these groups in common parlance,advocates must be aware of the potential confusion.
Recent attention to the problem of abandoned babies, and subsequent legislative remedies, are responses to the often-publicized stories of babies left in unsafe public places. Despite the lack of a clear definition, this is a clear problem.

Hello, Assalamualaikum & Selamat Sejahtera
Let me introduce myself first, my name is Khairul Izwan Bin Maskan A112743 , i'm a third year student at Faculty of Science Social & Humanity in National Univercity of Malaysia (UKM). Major in Psychology.
My hometown is in Muar Johor, one of a district in north Johor. But right now during in UKM i live in Kolej Dato Onn. I'm the third child of four siblings, i have two brothers named Izan and Hafiz, and the youngest is a my sister named Fatin. My father's Maskan Bin Kaswadi work in Department of Wildlife, meanwhile my mother's Gihaa Bte Harun is a nurse.
My hobbies is watching movies, chatting, surfing the internet especially facebook, news website, political blogs and youtube. Since we have internet connection in our residential college, i always downloading movies & dramas, so i didn't need to go to cinema anymore if i want to watch movie hehehe ... =)
Other than that, i also like to watch European football matches, especially English Premier League and European Champions League. I'm so excited to see football Stars like Waynee Rooney, Steven Gerard, Frank Lampard, Fernando Torres and Fabreagas show their talent and football skills.
Finally, as a psychology student, my ambition is to be a counselor or a teacher who can counsel students. Nowadays so many social problems involving teenagers, and most of them are still in school, this situation was very worrying. So it led my friends and i to discuss one of the hot topic recently " Baby Abandonment"
