Mothers fight over baby boy, abandon girl — A disgusting tale.
[India News]: Bhubaneswar, Feb 8 : Gender inequality asserted itself in an Orissa hospital Tuesday when two women squabbled over a boy child, both insisting that they had given birth to him while the baby girl lay abandoned in a corner.
Majda Parbin and Bhumi Sahu gave birth Monday afternoon in a government hospital in Rourkela, 514 km from here.
The hospital nurse says that Majda gave birth to a daughter and Bhumi to a son. But Majda’s family is crying foul and has complained that the paper in which the gender of the baby was recorded has been tampered with.
And though hospital doctors are backing the nurse after conducting blood tests, Majda’s family is unwilling to accept their version and is demanding a DNA test.
The situation became so tense, with the extended families of both women and their neighbours rushing to the hospital, that district officials and police were compelled to intervene to try and sort out the imbroglio.
And while the tussle for the boy intensifies, the baby girl remains unclaimed in a society that continues to devalue the girl child.

Tie the woman’s tubes, find the girl a home in the United States or UK (where they want infant girls) and slap her a few times. Obviously, this woman would NOT make a good mother, no matter what.
And, India is screwed up….no kidding. With their boy/girl birth ratio….they’ll end up arranging GAY marriages for the boys in a few years.
It seems to me that it is overpopulated countries that don’t value females.
Or maybe any country that doesn’t value females IS overpopulated, he he he. [You know, because, like …. you know, there should be less of those kind of people.]
In all fairness, the females in the 3rd world countries are all ugly. Well, so are the males but I am trying to stay on topic 😉
Being serious for a second: in countries where living life is crap, there are not jobs for females and crime is high and females are viewed as “dependents”. Stable environments place a high value on females. It’s just what developmental stage those countries are in, they can’t help it.
Their mentality is two worlds behind us, hence the “3rd world” status. They’ve got some catching up to do. Remember, America did the following: (1) Killed off most of the Native Americans, stole their land and swept the remaining under the reservation, (2) Enslaved Africans, (3) Used weapons of mass destruction to kill innocent CIVILIANS (Hiroshimi and Nagasaki– not to mention the fire bombing of Tokyo which killed 100,000 in one night), (4) Colonized the world by placing military bases all over the globe, now including Afghanistan and Iraq, and (5) presently whittling our liberties for false promises of protection and true domination of the world.
Hell, we have morality work cut out for ourselves!

“America” didn’t: enslave africans. Wasn’t our idea…we didn’t send ships over to capture them…we had indentured citizens of our own from England, and elsewhere, who came to work off a debt. I believe, if histororical accounts are correct, other African’s enslaved Africans (different tribes) and sold them to the Spanish, who needed slave armies to work large plantations (on islands the Spanish owned, and along the coasts of Africa and South America, later spreading to Florida, and then the whole south). This eventually spread to the large cotton plantations in the south. But, 2/3rds of all southern land owners did NOT own slaves…the majority were not the “master” depicted, but yeoman farmers who did not approve of what the slaveowners did. But, the large plantation owners/slavemasters, were really wealthy, and politically powerful (like corporations today) and did what they wanted, bought who they needed in government. (Wasn’t Andrew Jackson a slave owner? I think so. )
Meanwhile in the northern states…..no one had slaves. Was never an issue, the concept didn’t catch on. Seemed inhumane, and silly. Wasn’t that one of the reasons for the civil war? I seem to remember that.
My family came to the northern states in 1640…..and were always firmly against slavery. And, shockingly, my father went to integrated schools all his life (he was born in 1911). Why does everyone assume the south was the whole country?
The problem was always, and still is, the fact that special interest lobbiest sway the legislators to enact bills and policies that favor a few, and injure the masses. If anything, it’s getting worse with the government catering to “corporation’s” interests, and trying to convince us that it’s for our own good. We know from HISTORY that it’s not true. So, what are we going to do about it?
Probably bicker among ourselves?
But, at least we don’t kill our female children……
