I know everyone has been waiting

and wondering when the gossipy stuff is going to start so I will be the first.
I'm really confused by sstacey's posts lately.   First she gets pregnant (after a tubal years ago) and miscarries.
Now a "friend" abandons a baby and she is going to adopt it.    This just seems strange to me that all this is happening when she so desperately wants another baby.  
Any opinions on this?

I just went and reread that whole post, and no, it makes no sense.  We see alot of this at work....children being removed from parental custody, child abandonment, etc.  It's certainly not what I specialize in, but I do know a bit about it just from being exposed to it.  First off, even if the birth parent requests a child be left with another family or adult, there is still a background check to be done.  Social Services would never, ever, leave a child with a registered sex offender.  It just wouldn't happen.  So unless the laws are completely different from Canada to the States, which I highly doubt, there is very little chance her story is true.  Secondly, she is not a relative, or an authorized foster parent.  If the police and child welfare were called, more then likely the child would have been placed in a foster home and she could apply for temporary custody.  Thirdly, the police would never ever make that decision...only child welfare could.  At least that's the way it works here.  She's a nutjob.

So, tell, perty, when you said the phrase "jesus people" in your post, did you mean it in exasperation, (such as "Jesu, people!  Get your heads out of your butts!") or were you really calling them "Jesus people," (as in "flower children" or "Bible thumper")?  The zip code gal (91010 or whatever the number is) certainly took it as though you were calling her a Bible thumper.  (I thought you were merely being blasphemous.  LOL)  

mslkpage, thanks for the clarification on the hubby's status and why the police might let the baby stay where it is.  The guy surely wouldn't bear scrutiny on an official adoption, the background check would find it, so if this story is (in any way) correct as she tells it, she would obviously be leery about doing the obvious thing, which would be to try to adopt the baby.  Also, they probably don't have much money.

My guess is, with not much else to go on besides some pm's and what we're seeing in her posts, she's lonely, has limited prospects, is entirely obsessed with having another baby, and now something has happened in her life with her friend's baby -- possibly she urged her friend to hand over the baby to her but doesn't want to admit it on the site.  (It's more righteous if the baby was dumped, and it does sound like the baby was at least emotionally dumped.)  But who knows.  At least she did not make up a dramatic tale about a family member who left her with (was it three?) kids for a few days and then the couple took a multi-state road trip and got in a car crash and both adults died.  THAT girl had us all going for days.

I don't understand why a neighbor would find the little guy abandoned and not call the proper authorities?  I can't imagine anyone not calling the police and/or social services.  Even if the neighbor knew the mothers friends, I can't imagine that being the first phone call.....this sstaceyy sounds a bit off to me.
