But we surely wouldn't advocate for this. I am a First Mom from a "semi-open" adoption, promises made and broken after 7 years of contact.

There are closed adoptions today, I suppose there always will be. I just hope that before First parents and Adoptive Parents go into any agreement they realize the importance of keeping their word.
