[Sniffles]

I would love to hear you thoughts on the networking that adoptive parents do. For example, posting on the internet, posting ads in college papers/regular newspapers, handing out cards, and telling everyone they know. How would you feel if you found out years later that your a-parents used this practice in your adoption?



I personally do not like some parts of the practice of networking. I can understand telling all of your friends, posting on the internet, and posting in a regular newspaper. However, to post in a college paper seems to me that they are saying "since you are in college you are not good enough to parent a child". I also find the practice of handing out card rude and tacky especially if you do not know the person.
