Ok- here is the fallacy. It seems to be all about her and the experience that she can  control. Once the child is born, the child carries with it the entire ancestry and decendancy. And no, she has no control over that. That kid has relatives now that are his, not just her. The continual issue that  you are bringing forward has to do  with what is being characterized as a shameful act- to be gossiped about. It seems to always come back to this- and that she should have control over that. She has no control- even in a closed adoption, she can refuse contact later, but that doesn't control any other relative, the father, the siblings, the grandparents, cousins etc. all of whom have a say here, too. The child's existance and agency is dicatated by no one. [/quote]

Surely you understand that the news of a child given up for adoption a long time ago introduces major upheaval into the birth mother's relationship with her family members who were not aware of the child.  Possibly ruin them.  Possibly change them forever.  Your position, then, is that she should simply deal with it. Get over it.   The rights of the adopted child make all of this unimportant. [/quote]
DP. PP you need help and have basically ruined this thread by crazily attacking everyone. The person you are responded to only said that the child has agency as well. You don’t accept that not sure why you can’t acknowledge that other people do actually have the ability to make there own choices.  Where did they say that the rights of the child make everything else unimportant? They didn’t even use the word rights or even touch on the concept. You just read that into every post and refuse to let anyone else respond to anything without you making the same point over and over again. [/quote]

What? This is my second or MAYBE third response on this 22-page thread. You have me confused with someone else. [/quote]

PP would like to posit that anyone who disagrees with her “has issues”, is “crazy”, “needs help” or is ruining the thread, without understanding that other people see the world differently than they do. They’ve even dragged this attitude into the other adoption thread. No sense even trying to post anymore, as she is clearly the only person allowed an opinion. [/quote]
There you are![/quote]
