I am REALLY sorry for those of you whom have anger for adoption.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Decision: I am really trying to understand your post. Maybe because I am an adoptee I dont understand.


You say He is not a possession he is not a gift period
AND you probably feel this way because you can have your one children. Maybe that is why you would not understand why one would say "gift"


It is a gift when you give someone a child they can not have on their own.


STOP being so negative!

Gift is defined as:
1. Something that is bestowed voluntarily and without compensation.
2. The act, right, or power of giving.
3. A talent, endowment, aptitude, or inclination.
4. To present something as a gift to.
5. To endow with.

I DO think that when you give a child to a couple whom can not have children would be considered a gift.

birthmothers:
You made a decision in life to adopt your child. IF YOU could not make your own decision at that time, WHY do you think you could or should have kept your child?
