a foundling Explanation: an infant or small child found abandoned; a child without a known parent or guardian.\http://www.dictionary.com/browse/foundling Child abandonment is the practice of relinquishing interests and claims over one's offspring in an extralegal way with the intent of never again resuming or reasserting them. Causes include many social and cultural factors as well as mental illness. An abandoned child is called a foundling (as opposed to a runaway or an orphan). Baby dumping refers to parents abandoning or discarding a child younger than 12 months in a public or private place with the intent of disposing of them. It is also known as rehoming in cases of failed adoptions. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Child_abandonment |
