Cleaning up after themselves, as Amy Grossberg and Brian Peterson did, seems like a quaint gesture of guilt next to a hasty return to the prom for a postpartum spin around the dance floor. There's not a flicker of humanity in these cases, and there are more of them being reported, if not more of them happening. No one keeps comprehensive statistics on abandoned babies, but in Los Angeles County last year, there were 10 newborns left to die; two summers ago, three were discarded in Southern California beach communities. In Monmouth County, N.J., where Drexler left her baby...
...Baby boy Grossberg was not the only victim in the affair of Amy Grossberg and Brian Peterson Jr. [SOCIETY, Dec. 2]. The two young parents were victims as well. We can speculate about what was going through their minds and how the two 18-year-olds let their newborn child die. However, this tragedy does not lessen the fact that society failed them in a major way. For some reason these two college freshmen from affluent backgrounds felt that they had no one to turn to--not their parents, their friends, professors or counselors. This tragedy should remind...

If these writers had been consistent in their views, they would simply report that the couple exercised their constitutional right of choice. After all, if the couple had paid a doctor to perform a partial-birth abortion shortly before the baby was born, that would have been legal and the press would have supported their actions.

...week's end, Baby Boy Grossberg was being reclaimed from the morgue by his grandparents, who will name him before burying him. Defense lawyers are urging us not to rush to judgment, which is surely a prelude to a rush to explain and a plea to excuse. One attorney said, "Brian, the individual, the human being, the nice, normal kid, has been displayed, and I think that it gives the public a different perspective, and I think it's helpful." Helpful to whom? Not to a moral life. There are monsters among us who, with wealthy parents and a battalion...
