[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please say "placed" and not "gave up" my child. Language is very powerful, and the notion of "giving up" a child implies that the child is less than worthy. [/quote] I'm not up on the adoption lingo, but I don't get that from the phrase "give up" at all. Placing sounds emotion-less and too PC, while giving up a child implies that it was a difficult, emotional decision, which in this case it sounds like it was, very much so.[/quote]
