Update: Nebraska's drop box for unwanted babies works just like they feared it would
Unlike other states' safe-haven laws, with drop boxes at fire stations and hospitals to collect unwanted infants as an alternative to bad parenting or abortion, Nebraska's defines the protected class as all minors. So, what if your 15-yr-old won't stop sassing you? Can you give him up? Answer, as of this last weekend: Yup. JournalStar (Lincoln)

Exactly how "loose" is this law? Do husbands qualify? Could I leave him there?

Hay, when governments want to interfere with how one raises their kid then I think it only fare that they get to bear the burden when doo-doo hits the fan!
