You know..I am just always disheartened when I read that "rights" statement. It sounds like a "You gave up your legal rights to parent so just mosey on along and don't expect anything; not even respect or the right to be seen as any kind of mom and don't even have any feelings about it, because you gave up those rights too!"
Maybe that's not what you mean, but it's how it comes across and honestly...a firstmom knows this fact (relinquishment = no legal rights) far more than us amoms do, so what is the point? Even if you don't see her or any bmom as a mom, why the need to rub the salt in the wound?
