Left Speachless
 
as it says up top

http://gulfnews.com/news/gulf/uae/cr...-baby-1.976537

"A baby who was born three months prematurely and with a disability has been waiting for his parents to take him home since October, Dubai Police said."

"the Human Rights Department's Woman and Child Protection section has been following up the case with the parents since receiving the letter last week, as the mother had stopped visiting the child since Dec-ember and the father had not visited since October. "


un fukin believable, these people should just be shot. end off

So soo sad.

My concern would be that forcing the family to take a child needing extra care home when they clearly do not want it would lead to abuse of the child. Do they have a procedure for putting a child up for adoption here?

I often wonder where all the disabled people are here as very rarely see anyone on a wheelchair or with clearly visible disabilities (and those I do are mostly westerners).

adoption is technically illegal, families can take in children (emirati) but they can't give them their family name or let them inherit (so I was told).

Ever wonder why you get a sick feeling in your stomach about living in some places? Like you're going against your principles simply by being there? Just saying.....

Thats a good point. Best not to pressure the parents take the child, unless they can be made to genuinely realize the galatic mistake they are making.

Only Emiratis can adopt? Can non GCC citizens adopt children and if so is it only limited to non GCC children?
