Closed Adoption

I'm interested in getting opinions on why open adoption seems to be the craze right now. My husband and I are in the initial stages of researching adoption and we came into this knowing we wanted a closed adoption for sure. I am in total shock to see that open adoption seems to be the way to go now. We are totally open to learning more about open adoptions and considering it ourselves...but just curious on others' thoughts. I've found that several agencies we are looking into don't even offer closed adoptions. Do most consider it harmful to the child/baby? Is it hard to find a birthmother that will agree to closed? Any input will be greatly appreciated! Feel free to PM me too.
