I dunno, I think its more unfortunate that these horror stories are portrayed as the norm in domestic adoption, while the happy stories (of which there are far more) go largely unnoticed – thus resulting in the ‘birthmothers are bad’ mentality.

I hope domestic adoption, more specifically, birthmothers of children placed domestically here in the US, get a fair shake in the media at some point…like the recent Russian Adoption story Dateline did.

I just hate seeing stereotypically stories about anything being portrayed as the norm…then being perpetuated by others…as I’m sure you guys do when a negative story about Russian adoption is run.
