PHUKET: Authorities are looking to speak with the parents of an infant baby boy abandoned in a shopping cart in the parking lot of the Tesco Lotus Phuket branch shopping center last night, Friday the 13 of February, 2015.

Shoppers were surprised to find the infant boy after seeing two teen girls ride in on a motorbike (of an unidentified make) from Yaowarat Rd, to make a speedy delivery to the cart near the side entrance of the shopping centre, before fleeing the scene via the bypass rd.

The discovery drew quite the crowd, who alerted staff and authorities. It was speculated that the young boy had been abandoned by unwilling and unable teen parents.

The boy, healthy though weighing only 2.5 kilograms, was taken to Vichira hospital and authorities are hoping to track down the parent or parents and have a word.

"... the poor little sod..."

Very nice sentiment, I don't think. Hope you're ashamed of yourself, you sod.

Its always a difficult thing to tell if your just having a laugh, a smiley would have been a good thing.

If not, you're clearly not from the UK and its just a light hearted saying( in a nice way) where I come from.

"...authorities are hoping to track down the parent or parents and have a word." Or words.

If and when they identify the mother, I think the words should simply be " You will never see your beautiful boy again."

It is too bad women who get impregnated and have to deal with the consequences, face such problems, meanwhile the irresponsible sperm donor has sped off to fornicate with his new girlfriend. I hope the baby finds a caring and loving person or persons to give him a decent life.

Red Cross Children's Home, in Bangkok; "Across the Water" for Tsunami survivors; foundation(s) running orphanages [and adoption process for foreign...]; family.....

My little boy was abandoned. At 6 months old.

I wasn't expecting him.

He now speaks 3 languages fluently and is always asking to learn another. He is a math Whiss and a huge amazing race fan. I am not American, but he studied the maps by himself when he was 7. He knows all the states and their capital cities.

I do believe he will do great things in Thailand if given the right opportunity. What a waste it would have been if he had had to go through the orphanage system. A brilliant brain would have been lost.

Little sod is actually a term of endearment in my country, funnily enough. ??

[a99az]

I'm a big softy and I know but I would love to take him into my family my two young daughters would love him too. He looks a little western to me, sadly he is not on the only one just hope his mother comes back for him soon.

[greenchair]

I would take him in a second.

Unfortunately because of so many regulations, he will most likely spend his precious early years unloved in an orphanage,with hundreds of other unloved babies. All the while there are thousands of families that would love to give these kids a home.

Sad story for such a lovely baby... horrible what people can do. Legal abortions would be one step in the right direction to prevent maybe a few tossers from actually having kids and dump em...

Probably doesn't like the container his milk is in.

No, you can't have him!

Although abandoning a child in a parking lot is not recommended...it may have been out of desperation that the child was left there...may also be what was best for the child in the long run...

[WilliamCave]

I feel for the little guy because I have kids .

Does any one know the process for adoption in Thailand ,? Just for members that might be interested in the future .

Sort of of topic , in an adoption in Thailand if some one adopts a child does the paren have the right to come after the adoption and claim the child or demand compensation ?

Thanks in advance

[Beetlejuice]

One of the cutest, most adorable little baby boy`s. I have ever seen. Seeing this really grieves me.

Hope this baby is adopted by a real loving, caring family and given a good future. Whoever done this are complete bas-ards, <deleted> on them.
