[quote=Anonymous]Actually, having read the entire thread, I don't find the OP to be as callous and unfeeling as many so angrily claim. Some of the comments have been on point (e.g., using a third-party contact), but many seem to becoming solely from a place of judgement. BTW, I don't think anyone stated or implied that OP is "the most considerate persons ever" merely because she placed her child for adoption, but neither does that make her a callous bitch. There are many reasons for making an adoption plan some are selfish, some are selfless, but if a mother cannot or does not or feels ill-equipped to raise a child, my personal belief is that the child is better off being placed for adoption. Adoption does not ensure that the child's life will be perfect or that adoptive parents are perfect (neither are bio parents for that matter), but if the birth mother knows she does not want that role, at least the child has a "chance" at having a loving family relationship through an adoption. That doesn't make the birth mother a saint, but I can assure you from my own experience that a child raised by a mother who does not want to be a mother is not a good start at life. I think that there is a lot of projection going on in this thread.[/quote]
