Question Do Anti-Adoption Activists Hurt Your Open Adoption Relationship?

I am hoping both adoptive and birthparents out there can give me some insight about this question...

Do Anti-Adoption Activists Hurt Your Open Adoption Relationship?

I know when it comes to the negativity and anti-adoption information I have found online, I often come away feeling hurt, angry, criticized and vilianized. When I take that feeling, from the run ins with those who believe that no adoption ever is the only "best way" out into my daily life, I worry that it can change how I may interact with the birthfamilies of my three children.
These people are my family, they are the family of my children, and I do not want ideas and hate filled perceptions to shade how we interact together. Never the less, after reading these things, I often come away feeling down trodden and depressed.
I am wondering if others feel what they may run into online, of the anti-adoption nature, challenges how they then relate to the birth or adoptive families of their children.
Thanks for helping me out here! I am hoping to do a post at the adoption blogs pertaining to this, so please come over and look for it!
