[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I can't just give a blanket "Yes, adoption is great OP, go for it" without knowing OP's situations.  It sounds like your parents were very thoughtful and caring about it, and did what they thought was best.  We have zero info from OP about her or someone else's situation.  [b]We don't know if these are parents in dire straights of some kind, or spoiled selfish middle/upper class folks who could provide for a child but realized that a baby isn't the cute accessory they thought it was.  [/b]I have seriously encountered both types of people.  And I would judge the 2nd type, but I totally understand and support the first type.

You might judge the second type for their immaturity/foolishness, but wouldn't you judge them more harshly if they didn't want to deal with the trouble of a baby and DIDN'T give the baby up for adoption? Even if you give your baby up for adoption because you are a terrible person, in my mind, you're better than the terrible person who doesn't give the baby up for adoption and instead subjects the child to a life of bad/unloving parenting.[/quote]
