[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How often do you think about your child?  Do you think the adoption was best for your child?

I am an adult adoptee.  I know my birth father is dead and that I have older siblings (my birth parents were married).  I doubt I'll ever be able to find my birth mother or brothers, but if I did, I would say to them that now that I have children of my own, both bio and adopted, I can only fathom the strength and pain it took to place me for adoption.  And that I want them to know that my adoption helped create a family, made two people parents, gave my husband a wife, and my kids a mother.  I know that my adoption made my life better, but I also hope it made my birth parents' and siblings' lives better too.  I want my birth mom and my child's birth parents to know that we love them and think of, and pray for, them often.[/quote]

Every so often when there's a lot going on I may skip a day, but overall, every day. I want to believe it is. But every turn where I should have had a choice I didn't, and every choice there was to make was made very quickly. My parents morals and ethics are not mine, what they look for to see "good" in people is not what I look for. So, I hope adoption was best, but unless/until I see for my own eyes what happened after I gave birth I won't know for sure. [/quote]
