[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op I used to work with a woman who placed her daughter for adoption at 8 months.  She was a single mom and couldn't handle the responsibility.  Nor did she want to.

I was shocked.  However, mom had very little emotional attachment.  The little girl was hopefully raised in a better situation.[/quote]

8-month-olds are still practically potatoes. I wouldn't expect a strong emotional attachment yet.[/quote]

Wtf are you talking about? My kid was attached to his parents at three-ish months for sure. He knew who his parents were and would squawk if someone else tried to hold him for too long.[/quote]

Mine did too, and I adopted him at three months.n  If anyone other than me tried to hold him, he cried. 
Finally a month later, my mom could home her  grandson  til the cows came home.  But it did take a month. [/quote]

Of course, anyone with kids knows this. This child was closer to 2 by the time she was adopted. Very traumatic no doubt.[/quote]

Not normal. Look at any daycare for many, many counterexamples.[/quote]
