[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Right now, there is still a lot of shame in giving a child up for adoption.  You imagine the child seeking you out when it reaches adulthood, explaining to you that all its problems come from the rejection by their birth mother.  Better just to hunker down and raise it yourself than face that possible future.[/quote]

It's also a lot more traumatic.  I was adopted as an infant and my birth mother sought me out after I was 18. She had never got over it even though she got married later and had more children.  Also really upset my nice Christian adoptive family (who I was already on shaky terms with as being adopted isn't that easy and I had a lot of identity issues around it).

It's just so much easier to find biological relations now so the idea of adopting a baby without having potential connections to their whole biological family just isn't that easy now.  Between the dna sites, the ancestry sites, social media and adoptee forums, and on-line information (property taxes, addresses etc.) pretty much anyone can find any biological relative they want.

If these laws go through I think we're going to see a lot more single moms than there were pre Roe v Wade.  [/quote]
