Nebraska Safe Haven for Abandoned Children or Just Babies?

The state of Nebraska passed a safe haven law basically allowing parents of babies to leave them at hospitals without prosecutions. Basically Nebraska was allowing parents to abandon their children into government coffers but obscuring that fact by claiming safe haven with the state is not the same as abandoning the child since the state will profit from the act. The real problem is obscured by such mass media pundits like Campbell Brown at CNN. They claim that Nebraska's problem is forgetting an age limit on the abandonment immunity as young children and teens are being abandoned.
