jumping over from the Korean board...

I posted this to the various Korean boards that I'm on. Today I got this response from Teleflora:



Dear Jen,

You’re absolutely right and I’m very sorry your feelings were hurt.

The original aim was to highlight Moms who didn’t take a traditional path to motherhood. But we didn’t convey that clearly and instead we annoyed and upset people, which was not our intention. To say, or in any way imply, that an adoptive mother has a lesser status than a biological mother is untenable and offensive, and we sincerely apologize.

I appreciate you taking the time to post your comment.

Best,

Jacqueline Fitzgerald
