[quote=Anonymous]Terrible article.  Completely one sided.  Seems like these moms are advocating for the best interests of the birth (or first, as you prefer) parents and not the best interests of the child.  Take the poster woman, Corrigan.  She started off denying the pregnancy and then it took 10 years for her to rethink what happened.  Had adoption not been available, what would have happened to that child during those 10 years?  That said, her agency was obviously corrupt because apparently the birth father's consent was not obtained, although he is known.  I would want to change that sort of corruption.  I also think that it's unfair in some states the agency gets to profit but not the birth mom, because that would be selling a baby.  I think that children who were adopted should get full access to birth parents names and information.  However, I think these anti-adopters want to take away women's choices and it's infantilizing and condescending and ultimately would be bad for the kids who were borne to women who cannot or will not parent them properly.
