[quote=Anonymous]Birth mother here - TY for many of the links to articles; I found them very interesting. I'm from well after the Baby Scoop era & had an open-ish adoption situation & am in touch with the child I placed for adoption & their family. We all are very pro-choice & resent the invocation of adoption by ACB and others who minimize the very real trauma experienced by many in the adoption triad. Like many PPs, my experience was very positive - great adoptive parents; we are in touch & have kinship; but the relinquishment of a child, & that child's loss of their biological family, are not inconsequential & per many of the articles cited by PPs, may be the source of as-yet-unknown trauma. Which, as many PPs have also noted, can coexist with my deep gratitude for the adoptive parents I chose, and my deep gratitude for our ongoing relationship.[/quote]
