So about the 3 month pregnant woman who made the fabulous decision to rob a bank. There is no way she should be allowed to raise her baby once it is born. If this were to happen, the government wouldn't have made that decision, she would have already made it when she stepped into that bank. Obviously, she had already become a negligent mother and doesn't hold her childs best interest.
I do think, however, that she should be able to have contact with her child once it is born. It'd probably be in the childs best interest and the mothers, if she had wished to raise the baby, to put the baby into the care of a relative. This way, the child is not fully neglected from knowing family and the mother can have the satisfaction of knowing her child is in the arms of people she trusts and she still has contact.
The thing that is truly most important is the safety and upbringing of the baby. Being raised by a mother in jail wouldn't be the healthiest option.
