Answer:
Martin and Grandpa are characters in the short story "The Medicine Bag" by author Virginia Driving Hawk Sneve . Grandpa is a Native American who belongs to the Sioux group of tribes. Martin, as his male descendant, is supposed to receive the medicine bag Grandpa carries around with him before Grandpa dies.
At first, Martin is embarrassed and unwilling to receive and wear the medicine bag. He even refers to it as a "dirty leather pouch" that Grandpa has around his neck. However, Grandpa tells Martin the story behind the items that are carried inside the bag and their meanings. They used to belong to Grandpa's father, the last one in their family to make a vision quest. Martin's feelings change once he realizes how important the bag is to Grandpa. It is not only a representation of his culture, but also of his family. Martin now takes the bag seriously, and he is more than willing to receive it. He stands up, ready to have Grandpa place the bag around his neck.
Grandpa quit talking and I stared in disbelief as he covered his face with his hands. His shoulders were shaking with quiet sobs and I looked away until he began to speak again.
[...]
Again Grandpa was still and I felt his grief around me.
[...]
I stood up, somehow knowing I should. Grandpa slowly rose from the bed and stood upright in front of me, holding the bag before my face. I closed my eyes and waited for him to slip it over my head. But he spoke.
[...]
That night Mom and Dad took Grandpa to the hospital. Two weeks later I stood alone on the lonely prairie of the reservation and put the sacred sage in my medicine bag.

There are ADVANTAGE of legalizing baby bins or baby hatches which are typically used to leave the newborn babies by their parent who do not want them for certain reasons and abandon them there.
This can save many lives of the newborns as the other way people might choose is killing the babies or abandoning them at places where no one might ever find them.
The baby left there will have a positive opportunity to flourish in the society unlike the one left at street as the hatches are monitored by law.
There can be some DISADVANTAGES as well to the scheme as it might help promote immoral behaviors in society. A key factor in stopping immoral activities is the fear of society, and baby bins remove that fear. Another risk can be of an increasing tendency of rapes where people might think its OK to give birth to children and then leave them to baby bins.
