[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, pp, that's certainly twisting words.  What I said was that everyone is lucky, birth mom, and adoptive parents.  Don't you think a mother unwilling or unable to raise her child isn't lucky that someone else is willing to take on those responsibilities?  I think that's damned lucky.  Just like I think it's very when people wanting to adopt a child are able to.  It's not prioritizing adoptive parents over birth mother.  It's saying that all parents involved have been lucky to have gotten what they want.  And if a birth mother would rather have an abortion simply because her child's adoptive parents feel she is as lucky as they are about the adoption, well, that says a lot more about the birth mom, and the need to feel superior, than anything else.

And when an adoption falls through? 
In maryland the birth mom has 2 weeks to change her mind. If she was to change her mind, would you sill say everyone is lucky?
And abortion is a better option than adoption[/quote]

I don't understand what that has to do with it.  Of course it's unfortunate, at least for some of the people involved, change their mind after agreeing that adoption is the right decision.  If it turns out that staying with the birth mom is the best thing for her and her child, though, I think that that's great.  There's a reason for waiting periods for such an enormous decision.  I don;t think, though, that that has anything to do, though, with treating both adoptive and birth parents as equally fortunate if an adoption is finalized.  A I missing something?[/quote]
