well....

I can speak only for myself. I thought I wanted a closed adoption because I thought it would be easier to move on with my life. Well, oh boy, did I realize I was wrong, and thankfully, the afamily was open to contact. but then, after a couple months, nothing. Honestly, if I had known they'd wind up cutting me off after all these great promises of pictures and contact...I wouldn't have bothered.

While I'm sure you are genuine in your desire to have an open adoption, the reality seems to be, there are a lot of people who say the same thing, get the baby and then...poof. They just blow the whole thing off. I suppose the risk of that heartbreak could keep a potential bmom from an open adoption.

I wish you luck,
Ress
