Baby girl in China abandoned on the street... because she is BLONDE

[CatWoman]

:(

A mother abandoned her newborn baby on the street in China - because the little girl was blonde.

The white-haired Chinese baby was discovered by a passer-by on a street corner in Nanning, Guangxi Province.

The woman who found the child heard a cry and made the shocking discovery.

'I was walking to work and heard cries from a wrapped-up quilt in the corner' she said.
'By opening it I found a baby crying very sadly.'

Police found a bag of baby clothes besides the quilt and an envelope containing 3,900 Yuan, about £390.

On the envelope the mother had written: 'I hope warm-hearted people can help to send the baby to the orphanage house. Wish you all the best.

'My dear baby I am an irresponsible mother and an incapable mother. I am sorry.'

Police suspect but have not confirmed that the mother dumped her child because of the baby's white hair.

1. oh - poor sweet baby...

I hope some loving family adopts her soon.

2. Hundreds of black-haired Chinese baby girls are abandoned every day.

Not sure why this made news.

8. I get your point and it's a good one, but I would imagine white hair is

fairly unusual in the Asian population, although hardly a reason to abandon her...I imagine she's albino.

3. Meh. Article says police "suspect" that was the reason

Nothing in her note indicates that

[whathehell]

9. The note was partially addressed to the child herself..

Do you think she's really going to tell her (or even some random "goodhearted" person) she abandoned her because her hair was white?

She's probably ashamed..and should be.

4. Stupid headline. Nowhere does it say that it's because of her hair. More likely because she's

a girl.

5. I think that too...........

6. An albino girl?

Her skin is very pink.

7. that was my first thought too, albino

n/t

15. If her eyes were open

and they were pink (due to being able to see her blood vessels) we'd know for sure.

10. I was thinking Mom might have had an affair with a westerner

who was blond

that's why she abandoned the baby-proof of the affair

[Jack Rabbit]

That child wouldn't be that blond if that were the case

I'd be more inclined to the albino explanation.

Trust me, I'm a white man who had two kids with a Korean.

11. There are albinos in China

Odds for albinism are 1/17,000. So there are quite a few albinos there. Connie Chiu is a famous one.

17. I googled Connie Chiu

She is STRIKING! :o

12. Awwww

I'd love to have another baby. Who cares if she's an albino?

13. We can have no idea of what torments this mother may have gone

through in making this decision, or being forced by someone else to make this decision.

14. Sad story...

But at least this baby was saved. Many others are not so lucky.

16. It's true...

Many make it all the way to young adulthood just to be used as cannon fodder for rich men's vile pursuits. So sad.
