Even if you weren't looking for birthparents input, these forums are not segregated. Anyone can interject. Just a point about the forums.
You're also misunderstanding. No one is saying to specifically read about open adoption. It is my opinion that you need to research adoption as a whole at this point. You're misunderstanding the very core of the issue: even if your child has no feeling of "loss," your child came from another family. It's simply a fact. To ignore it is to deny who your child is at his core.
I'm not advocating open adoption. I'm advocating for adoption education in general. Just because you know one adoptee who is well adjusted (and there are others) doesn't mean you know every issue adoptees have or have had or could have.
Education is good!
