I watched the program and it saddened me but at the same time I was pleased to see it on the show for the awareness it brings (wakie wakie society).
Authoritatian father + submissive mother = daughter (young mother) being manipulated into something so devastating that the pain will be felt for life, not even taking into consideration the life long consequences to the baby, poor soul (imagine watching a rerun about the events you had no control over but took your parents away).
Punitive registry laws - sounds like the perfect legal method to strip fathers of their rights put in place by society....just the ticket to make adoption process easy for families that force (by whatever method) mothers to sign away their rights. Once they have accomplished that goal the deal is done...no dealing with the father...we stripped him of his rights.
And the lawyer for the birth mother..."the supreme court has ruled that ignorance of the law is no excuse" yet she had to no idea the law existed and obviously she is a family lawyer licensed in Oregon...and she did not know so how could a young man have any clue? It is archaic and contrary to all levels of humanity.
Make sure you go to Dr. Phil's message board...the more that speak up against this the more pressure it puts on those who can change the law.
Kind regards,
Dickons
