Dear dpen6,
You are so right about those moral times. The woman who adopted me was single and masquerading as a married woman! I was not allowed to tell anyone I was adopted. It is very insightful to point out that today's open adoption would not be the same as it was 50 years ago. I could not even be legally adopted until I was 12 years old. Single people were not allowed to adopt!! And you are correct saying I am relating my own experiences. And they were experiences I would not wish on anyone I cared about!!! I find that very few people understand on an inate level exactly WHAT I am talking about. They hear the words but can not related to the experience.
