Non-Mom
I have never written/sent an e-mail over comments made by are media. But this has really upset me. Here is what I wrote to NBC:
As an adoptive Mother, I am deeply offended by your term of “Non-Mom”!!
How can you give that term to someone who is willing to fly across the globe to help give a loving, caring life to a child? Anyone who cares for, loves and support a child on a daily bases, through thick and thin, is a “Mom”. It doesn’t matter how that child came into your life, you are the Mom. You are the one who is kissing boo-boo’s; staying up all night with a sick child; attending all their school and after school events; sacrificing your time, money and sleep, just like a person who gives birth to a child.
As my cousin told me, it only takes 30 seconds, if that, to get pregnant, but that still doesn’t make you a mom!
I am deeply disappointed with NBC!
