Thai mother dumps three year old at children's home with tragic note

Thai media has reported that a Thai mother dumped her three year old daughter at a children's home on Sunday. 

 

She arrived with her on a motorcycle and just left her at the gate clutching a note and a cuddly toy for comfort.

 

She rang the bell then drove off hurriedly as officials activated an electronic gate. 

 

The note in the hands of the pitiful little girl said that the mother was poor and couldn't look after her properly. The girl's real father didn't want her and the mother's new husband didn't want her either. 

 

She finished off: I love you but I really need to do this. 

 

Staff at the Lopburi Shelter for Children and Families took the little girl to local police. 

 

She was covered in bruises and was taken to hospital for checks. 

 

Now the police are trying to trace her family and the mother who abandoned her. 

 

77kaoded posted a video of the tragic and bewildered little one at the police station.

Poor little thing.  Just hope some decent loving foster parents can be found so she can get a new start in life. Too young to have this trauma put on her.

The 1% in this world should be ashamed of their endless money hoarding, when little girls like this can't even stay with their families due to lack of funds !!! 

It's 2020 yet people are still starving and others have 2 or 3 super yachts just to be seen on ????

[neeray]

If she is adopted, it won't take much to improve her lot as compared to the selfish Mother, birth Father and "new husband".

Good luck little one.

Very nice people hope they get what they deserve.

So sad I hope the 3 year old gets adopted by caring parents.  

[VocalNeal]

Sad story. Usually it is Granny who takes care?

[steve187]

so the 2 men in the child's life are both a**e holes, about par for the course here.

all the best for the child, i hope she gets a better life than the one she did have

[Puchaiyank]

Sad now...little girl was likely mistreated by the step-father...mother may have run out of options...

 

Little girl will be better off out of that toxic environment...

Not with the thoughts of giving her back !,to the family who mistreat

her and don't want the little mite,maybe they would want her back

when she is older and could prove a money maker for them.

regards Worgeordie

[holy cow cm]

She looks so sweet! This is probably one of the only things that will get my heart aching. At least she wasn't sold and will have a honest chance at a good life. Cross the fingers. I hope those worms change their attitude on life and do not have any new kids. 

[Bruce Aussie Chiang Mai]

Don't think it a case poor here just bad people.  I think most Thai men would not want a women with children and if get one then abuse the little ones.

Many good Thai people raise their children while being poor.

Sad for little girl just hope she ends up with loving family and  when she grows up she doesn't go looking for her birth mum like westerners do.

Lack of funds? Or refusal to accept another mans daughter seems to be the case here, plus covered in bruises reads like possible abuse.

I understand what you saying about the super rich, but are the abondoned children their responsibilty? Yes better distribution of wealth would assit in alievating poverty, as would auniversal living wage, and redistribute wealth.

How very sad, a mother abandoning his daughter, for the sake of being with another man.

Wake up woman, he will dump you, just like the girls father, then what have you got?

Nothing, sod all, no man, no daughter, just heart break.

She has dumped the child, and returning the child to mother would only end up in further abuse I think. Some people do not have a nurturing instinct, and further abuse for the child would be devastating I think

You might be right but why are people on this site so angry when a Thai girl decides to redistribute wealth from a foreigner to herself while your advocating it.

 

Maybe because its easy to advocate it when its not your money that will be divided always easier to point at an other.

 

This lil girl has a horrible mom and i don't believe its just money. Its just that her new husband does not want her.

 

People who are poor should not take too many kids. I myself never took kids as a choice. I wonder why everyone always needs kids even if they cant afford them.

Then redistriubution of wealth I referred to was not about a one to one redistribution, but a differnt economic system totally beyond the current capitalist one in which most of the world lives.

Children used to be a way out of poverty, by sending the children to work in sweatshops, farms and later factories, to help support families. Slave labour

We tried socialism it did not work either. I don't believe in full capitalism either. But wealth redistribution sounds quite ominous. 

 

People should just get better schooling and help themselves out of problem. Not perpetual handouts. I also believe that intellect and studying should be rewarded not everyone should make the same money it will kill innovation. I feel that taking risks and developing ones self should be rewarded and a dr can make more then a street sweeper.

Socialism is not a success, and too open to corruption and self interest.

I suggest reeading "Utopia for Realistist, and How to Get there".

 

But back to the poor child, I do not think money is the primary reason for dumping her. It seems to be self interest of a mother who cannot cope, and a disgusting male partner

 

[beau thai]

Surprised this is even news.

There are reported to be 380000 'orphans'- many of whom have one or both parents, unable/unwilling to take care.

'Social Welfare', (so called) charge fees of USD10-20000 for overseas adoptions, not sure about local. Also not sure where those fees go.....

Just go visit any small orphanage here and find out the back stories.

Then think about the 5 'leading' families and their billions. And those who work for them for below minimum wage.

The root of the problem is poor education ( Education was cut in latest budget- to make space for tanks and submarines), increasing inequality in society, and the lack of social welfare- which could be addressed through a small increase in sales tax.  But that needs a change in Government thinking and planning, so wont happen any time soon.

And that poor little girl is just one more victim......

The publicity is interesting, as this is usually such an 'out of sight, out of mind' problem. Especially for those who drive their expensive cars through the electric gates at their expensive houses. And then go to the temple...

I wonder if these poor Citizens of Tomorrow will just accept their lot, or demand better.

Never run out of money to buy a bottle of Lao Khao or a national lottery ticket.
I note that the father of the little girl does not want to talk about her and that the mother's partner is in the same state of mind.
If the reporter knows all these things it is because he knows even more;
The police should have no trouble finding these unworthy parents.

[RichardColeman]

My wife and I were given a baby girl on the day she was born by a Thai mother that we had only met twice and couldn't wait to get rid of her - father not interested, get abortion, you slept around - and the dates didn't fit in with her new boyfriend.

 

3.5 years later, she is still with us. She knows us as parents. Has a good life.

 

Now, what really riles me, is that we still communicate with the mother now and then - you never know if something important comes up. BUT, though we do not need any financial help from her, and we give our daughter the best life we can, the mother still wont help get a passport or any other documents done. Just not interested in helping her even going out of her way to not turn up to meetings not to help. And the mother was a university doctorate student and not from a poor family either - so not a dirt poor farmer. They are all at it

In many cases, yes. We are full time carers of our four year old grandson. He calls us mum and dad because we are pretty much all he has ever known and is still too young to fully understand what is going on. But hey, that's fine, we love and care for him like he is our own son. His mother, (my wife'e daughter) is away working in Bangkok. She very rarely visits her son, and the money she is supposed to send each month is not always forthcoming. If my wife get's on her back about anything then she just goes to ground, refusing to answer any messages or phone calls. Basically, she is a ten year old kid wrapped up in a 30 year old's body.

 

His father is spending 5 years locked up for drug possession. Pathetic idiot that he is...

 

The bottom line is that he is a million times better off with us than his natural parents, and hopefully this little girl will soon find some loving people to love and adopt her.

How sad it might be, the mother might have done just the right thing for her daughter, giving the child a chance to be with hopefully a better family to care for her.

she left the daughter at the gate because the new man didn't want her... should have told him to go run & jump!

 

[Xaos]

This scenario where woman get new man and step dad torturing kid is common here, heard it before few times and gf told me before about this issue. Nothing new here. Tragic hope she will get adopted

I agree.  With the limited information given, it sounds like the mother chose the least-worst option.

 

yes, in most cases a child is better off with their own parents... but.. for whatever reason that doesn’t/can’t happen, then it sounds like she made some reasonable attempt to “place” the child into a safe state-custodial environment system....as opposed to perhaps an unsafe home environment...

Don't begrudge rich people their wealth because they do not spend it in a way that you approve of. The wealthy do not "hoard" money they invest it in businesses and assets almost all of which benefits someone. Even if it's only sitting in their bank, the bank is loaning it out to build houses and buy cars and build businesses. It took hundreds maybe even thousands of people in the supply chain to build their "2 or 3 super yachts" and they have to pay their captains and crew. Those folks are regular people like you and me. Not to mention the upkeep on the yachts and multiple mansions. Those are regular wage earners too. The "rich" spend their money, it goes into the economy. You may be jealous of their wealth or maybe it's envy but they don't keep it under a mattress and bring it out only to bathe in. No poor man ever gave you or me a job.

 

I just spent a week with "rich" people who donate their time and their money and raise money from their friends to help kids left out like this poor little girl. Their efforts support 7 homes for over 300 kids around Thailand for exactly kids in this position and worse. This mom no doubt did what she thought was best for her child. She was at the end of her rope. There are people out there who give their own time and money to directly help kids like this. 

 

You sit there at your keyboard and berate the "rich" and what do you do? Actually 'do' for these kids, anything at all? Paying tax and demanding "the government" do it for you, doesn't count. Either does bitching about how someone else spends their money. You just pass judgement on others to make yourself feel better. At least the "rich" are giving a few people a job when they buy their yachts. 

[racket]

As the economy starts to falter we will continue see similar stories in the future. I hope the child will be taken care of and that the mother gets to see her daughter again. 

[tomauasia]

That sums up Thai men. And legally these rats can walk away and do it again. She should leave the new scum bag to.
