  • You were sold like a toaster oven... ask your Aparent how much they paid for you.. (They call it fees...) But when you hand party A money and party a gives you a child you just bought a human being... Which is also known as child trafficking... now if adoption was not money based I would have nuthing to say

    Watch this video watch?v=ks3P59z5gUk

  • I watched the video And I feel horrible for those women, but not all adoptions are forced. And I know nothing about the circumstances, but the bottom line is I have great parents, and they love me, they've stood by me after all the horrible shit I put them through, they have given me many opportunities, I have a good life and I had a great childhood. I'm sure my birth mom would be glad to hear that.

  • Hey, just want to say interesting video. All the birth mothers I've met that placed back in the 60s & 70s were forced into it.  They had no jobs, the boyfriends (or in some cases date rapists) pretended it wasn't their baby, the girl's parents wouldn't let her live at their home until after the birth & signed adoption papers. You can't just raise a baby on love alone. A lot of birth mothers suffer from PTSD symptoms..and I think that sometimes leads to many of the unhappy reunions.

  • That is so sad, I couldn't imagine being forced to give up my child.

  • There is an ebook by Jennifer Lynch on lulu.com which is a novel

    but deals with the relationships involved in the adoption process which may

    be helpful.

  • I hope all woman or fathers burn in Hell for what they did i have no support or kindess or forging, imamutre fat ass who give up there kid bc they feel there not ready if i was there son ill pray every day they burn in hell for ever and suffer for everything...

  • My Husband was adopted by his Aunt. His birth mom gave him up, was doing to abort him. So his aunt steped in she couldn't have any kids. I just want to say that he has the best parents in the world. He's the best!!!

  • @Bizziboy I agree and thanks.I do my best to get people to stop and listen about the real truth about adoption Agencies, social services and how they are ripping families apart.

  • @ashatbulaparanormal well said.

    Couples buy a "family" at the cost of our families. It's barbaric.

  • @Bizziboy I understand your pain and know where your coming from.I too do not like Adoption Agencies and their ways.They are a multi-billion dollar industry and Solicitation for children need to be outlawed.Most don't know the real truth about Adoption Agencies,nor do I think they really want to know either.Adopters are so desperate to adopted that they don't care how Adoption Agencies get babies/children or that they are buying,not picking a baby.

  • Sweetie,I'm sure your mother is looking for you,but is running up against brick walls.The less information mothers have,the harder it is to find their lost children.Most adoption are forced back then and today.Adoption Agencies make it so hard on both adoptees and their mothers by withholding information to protect the adopters.This is why Adoption needs to reformed.

  • I want to say thanks for sharing your personal thoughts on this matter. I am a licensed foster parent and am trying to decide if adopting a child is the right thing to do. I often wonder about how they will feel about it once they are grown. It is helpful to hear the thoughts directly from someone in your shoes.

  • my parents gave me that exact same book when i was younger. i completely understand how you feel. i have an open relationship with my birth mother and her family so it is a bit different for me. but i have never met my birth father because he didnt want to have a relationship with me. all i have are a couple pics of him from when he was younger. i am so scared to contact him but i know i will have to one day. my mom has had some contact with his mother but theyve never met. its always been hard

  • my daughter was raped at 12 had a baby (my grandaughter) i put up a long fight in the family courts to be able to keep her with me (and her birthfamily) but lost all i want to say is i hope and pray she will come and find us and believe me she the day she does find us she will know she was never given away freely i just hope and pray she does have a good life becouse she would have always be given the love of us if she was not stolen a part of my heart went with her when she left us
