I am a big fat NO too. I think it sets up a lot of feelings of obligation and expectation on the adopting parents part. Also there is the matter of what happens after the baby is born. In most of the situations I know of the birthmom is left to fend for herself and the adoptive parents go home with the baby. I knowin one case the birthmom was forced to go to a homeless shelter.

I think it is much better if permanent housing is worked on during the pregnancy. That way if the mother decides to parent she has someplace to go. I am also against parents moving to the state of the adopting parents to have the baby.
