Open Arms SA is a project of Isiaiah 54 Children's Sanctuary in Durban, a crisis home for abused, abandoned and HIV infected babies and children. I started this project because I am very concerned about the number of babies that are abandoned in the street, bins, bushes etc. I know that sometimes the step to the welfare is very high and it takes up to much time, what most of the mother don't have as the are in a panic and need to get out of the situation as soon as possible. But abandoning your baby is a crime and besides that, it is not good for the baby. We must always keep in mind that the baby never chose to be born and we need to do what is the best for baby and the mother. Handing your baby over or giving it up for adoption is not being a careless mother and bad to do, it even makes you more of a good mother. Because you know that you cannot give the baby what it deserves, and by giving it up for adoption you are able to give your baby a future by a forever family. Never think that you are a bad mother by making this choice, you would be a bad mother if you didn't make this choice knowing you cannot look after baby and give it what is deserves, a stable, loving life and a future with lots op opportunities.
