Abandoned Babies Worldwide


I am surfing the internet today and was surprised to know that there were a lot of babies being abandoned by their mother not only here in the Philippines but all over the world. What is alarming also is the fact that the search engine for the word 'abandoned babies' will give you a result of as much as 4,390 sites. These figures are for bing search engine results alone and not counting that of google and yahoo. And I am thinking that if we add all those numbers from the other search engine, the figures will reach as much as 10,000 or maybe 15,000 babies being abandoned worldwide. So, I am wondering now what could be the compelling reasons of those mothers to abandon their newborn babies? Remember, this is happening worldwide and I don't agree that poverty is the lone culprit or would be the common answer to the question. Therefore, what must be the reason for all of this?
See it for yourself here...
