From a thread where hopeful adoptive parents are fighting a very young, unwed mother to let them raise her child – “Your baby needs a mother and a father. That’s more important than your feelings. We are trying our best to be honest, even when it’s hard. It’s wrong to keep pushing for us to just scrap our name for your baby. It is just not going anywhere productive. Stop asking us because we aren’t going to listen.”
“There are so many families who just grow old and never have any children at all. Sounds weird to say but there is actually a need for birth moms. I wish more people were aware of how many are waiting and could get a little help from volunteer birth moms. I know that’s a controversial take.”
“Some of these families have ten plus kids and I feel it’s highly likely those kids aren’t getting good care. Better to keep 5 and place 5 with the infertile doctor and his wife who can’t have any. There’ just more than one way to look at something in order to solve a problem.”
This is a reality out in adoption land.
