Under the SSB law, a parent or person with lawful custody can safely surrender a baby confidentially and without fear of prosecution within 72 hours of birth. The SSB law requires the baby be taken to a public or private hospital, designated fire station or other safe surrender site. No questions will be asked. The SSB law provides a safe alternative to desperate mothers who are unwilling or unable to keep their babies. Babies who are safely surrendered at a hospital are given medical treatment and placed in a foster home or pre-adoptive home. At the time of surrender, a bracelet is placed on the baby for identification purposes and a matching bracelet provided to the parent or lawful guardian in case the baby is reclaimed. A parent or person with lawful custody has up to 14 days from the time of surrender to reclaim their baby. <a href="http://www.babysafe.ca.gov " target="_blank">www.babysafe.ca.gov </a> So maybe you do not know what the safe-haven law is.
