Perspective welcomed
I am asking both birth mothers and potential birth mothers for their input. I wondered if it would be or would have been helpful to speak to an adoptee who had a positive experience with their adoption? Not to sway one into adoption, but to help work through feelings they may have in placing. I asked an adoption agency if they ever used adoptees to speak with potential birthmothers to help answer questions they may have as to how one felt in being adopted. She said they NEVER have birth mothers speak to adoptees, only birth mothers speak to other birth mothers. Would love your insight if that would be or would have been helpful. Thank you for your time.

*memory of C. Scott Padget, III
Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking.
It is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.
I Corinthians 13:4-8
May I learn to follow this kind of love.
