Donate
In MY situation, as I know all of ours are different, I would not have adopted my daughter if her bmom said to me "I know she will be just as well off with me". I couldn't have digested adopting a child whos bmom was capable of giving her everything she needed. I would have felt like I was hurting everyone involved especially that little girl. I will explain to her as she grows, that at the time of your adoption your birthmother wanted more for you than she was capable of giving . My DD birthmom specifically said to me "I want her to have a better life than I can give". I guess I shouldn't have generalized my situation but that is all I know. Sorry for those of you I offended. That was not my intention.
