Today, I would like to talk about "Baby Hatch" which has been come up as one of the problem recently.
Baby hatch is the system to save the babies who are abandoned or going to be terminated. Parents who can't bring up babies by some reason, can leave them in the case with anonymous.
If you want to know more about this system, you could see in here.
Next two letter is related to the topic which the baby hatch had established at Jikei hospital in Kumamoto.
Letter One:
This letter was written by Krishna Haksar, using her experience to make us convince.
She has been working with children and families for more than 20 years, and she saw many children who undergo terrible treatment by their parents and became adult who is developmentally disabled. Through her experience, she thinks that this problem won't recover by baby hatch. She said that even if there is a system like baby hatch, there still children who is abandoned or terminated will exist.
Letter Two:
This letter was written by the person in Kanagawa, and this person used the case in Japan.
Several years ago, the couple who were just junior high school student, had a baby and they abandoned their baby in cold weather. This person thinks that if there was a system like baby hatch, maybe they didn't abandon the baby and the life of the baby was saved.
Compare these two, I agreed with the first letter. I know what the second article mean, and I do think we could save much innocent lives by this system. However, if I think of the effect after we took this plan, the couples, especially in younger age, will lose their responsibility of making babies. If they had a baby, they could just throw away into the case and ignore what they did. They could still enjoy their school life, not thinking of how their baby's life will go on without parents. From this reason, I think this system will ended up just to encourage people to throw their children away, and the number of the children who don't have their parents will increase extremely that goverment can't support them.

I think baby hatch is the good idea, but I also agrree with your opinion that many parents will throw away their babies. So if the government establish more facilities which support parents who have some problems and plan school programs which make student think more about life, we could make this situation much better, I think.
I think your opinion makes a lot of sence to me. It is scarery that parents forget or lose their responsibility to raise their children. I really don't want that to happen in the future.
