[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The fact that adoption even comes up in this discussion about abortion just shows you how off the rails these people are. Why should my bodily autonomy depend on the supply you have of a commodity?? [/quote]

As an adoptive mother, I 100% agree.  I adore my child but the absolute real long term impacts faced by the birth mother, my child and others in the adoption triangle is real.  To think that a bunch of white old men who have probably never been in the same room with someone who has been adopted are even bringing this up, is disgraceful.  Not to mention the costs - if they are serious about this, start offering 100% tax credits for all adoptions.  Give me my 40k in adoption lawyer fees back and years of therapy for everyone because my son's birth mother did not choose abortion. [/quote]

+1. My mom grew up in a very Catholic family. Her sister was killed by a drunk driver at age 5 and was “replaced” by a white Catholic infant (1960s). Hint one this will end badly. She was 13 years younger than my mom, so I was about 6 when she got pregnant a age 16. On purpose. Because she wanted to marry her boyfriend and get out of her parents house. She had 3 more kids before age 23 and got divorced

My mother: how can you support abortion?  Would you have wanted your aunt to be aborted?  Honestly, IDK. She had a pretty crappy life, despite the UMC adoption. I also have never really known her. My mother’s “charity” was taking her groceries once a month and sometime I went. But she had no other contact with her adoptive family. So, I don’t know her. I gather that her kids are further the cycle of generational poverty.

Also my mother: if you have sex, god will punish you by making you pregnant and ruining your life, just like your aunt. (My smart as teenage self: he can’t punish me without dragging an innocent child into the mix?)

My grandfather and his and my grandmother’s 50th wedding celebration: it makes me so happy that all of my blood relatives are here. Because if I’ve learned anything in life, blood relatives are the only real relatives. He and my grandmother left the entirety of their sizable estate to my mother, rather than at least, say, helping my cousins get an education.

So yeah: even with a domestic supply of white infants for UMC parents, not all adoptions are sunshine and roses. [/quote]
