Oof. I can understand showing a measure of sympathy for the parent in that situation, but full on praising them? I can only hope they do it to encourage others who might be in the same situation, they don't actually believe it's "brave" or "selfless". Because if hearing that is enough to push you over into abandoning your baby, you probably shouldn't have it anyway.
I won't try to argue whether a baby drop box is a good or bad thing to have, but the effusive praise given to someone for using it is just unpleasant. Sure, don't announce it like "another whore abandons her responsibilities, what a bitch", but also don't praise someone for anonymously abandoning their baby.
Yeah I kinda suspect that's one of those measures to try to encourage them to drop their babies there versus throwing them in the trash or something like that. Rather be super nice about it and perhaps save the life of a baby versus being an ass and making them chuck it in the trash.
