Isabo, I just stumbled upon this thread, but I wanted to say that I remember very well the thread you describe from the Guat. forum. I was as appalled as you were at some of the statements posted there. I do think one of the problems with the old Guatemalan adoption system was the lack of awareness/education among PAPs. I believe education and discussion is the way to improve all aspects of adoption.

Jillian, I believe you are right that many Guatemalan birthmothers would love contact. We are planning to pursue that route as well.
