[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know a woman who tried pregnancy, surrogacy, donor egg, -- well, everything -- before "resorting" to adoption.  I hope to god her gorgeous smart now-6-year old daughter never finds out the mom did everything possible not to "have to" adopt.  Some "parents" are just better not being parents.

What a disgusting thing to say about someone trying to desperately become a mother. You should be ashamed of yourself instead of being so smug.[/quote]

I don’t get the whole culture around ppl being “called” to adoption or that parents won’t love the kid as much if they are adopted after infertility. It’s truly gross. Who cares if it was her last choice?  Was it birth parents first choice to put their kid for for adoption??  [/quote

+1. Totally agree. Anyone who's gone through that much with infertility is desperate for a child. Guaranteed that child is as wanted and dreamed for as any other child. People can have many concerns with adoption that aren't about pregnancy or the genetic connection (which wouldn't be there with donor gametes anyways) or can have insurance coverage for fertility treatment that makes it much more affordable than adoption. Don't judge what you don't know, PPs.

And also agree about people being "called". That's saviorism and about the parents, not the child. I question those people's motivations much more than someone who's been through hell and back trying to become a parent.[/quote]
