Kind of like you just don't tell your child, point blank with no other explanation, "Hey, I considered abortion but, oh, it was too late when I got to the clinic and that's why you're here." Stings a bit.
Had I parented Munchkin, I think the guilt of hurting J & D would have been too much for me to continue a friendship with them. In my opinion, I don't think I would have sent a card, either, beause I would have feared that it would come across something to the sort of, "I parented and you didn't get her; look how cute she is." Ya know? I have a lot of respect for adoptive parents that place themselves on the line and never would have wanted to hurt someone unintentionally.
