[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Traumatized? We are talking about how the baby experiences birth and subseqeunt abandonment by its mother. It does know its mother is not there, and goes through a stage of grief. Just look up the rrsearch[/quote] If you adopted, maybe that is why your child has so many issues. My child was not abandoned by his birthmom. She was unable to care for him due to her financial and living circumstances and choose to place him for adoption. She did not have to place him but she was thinking of his needs above her own. She loves him very much as does her family, whom we have very close relationships with. He has two loving parents who are very devoted to him. He knows nothing but love and is a very happy and sweet child. Think about what you say and how you say it as words are very strong. Generally those who participate in research are those who had unhappy adoptions or are mentally ill. Most people who have happy, successful adoptions do not bother with those types of things as they are too busy living their lives. Just like most of the blogs you read are negative and nasty with all kinds of trauma. I am my child's mother! He knows I am here given I am with him and he's ever ever been abandoned.[/quote]
