Itīs interesting, Kathy.
Thankfully in Scandinavia, single women are not looked down on. They are not accused of milking the system, because most of them work full time and are proud of caring for their children alone. Some need to be on welfare for awhile and thatīs fine. Iīm a single fostermother myself and work full time. Iīm respected for that but not for being a birthmother.
There has always been respect for single mothers here, even a while back, but Iīm beginning to think the prejudices against birthmothers are worse here then in the States. Just a feeling, though. We are so few and most people adopt from Asia, Africa and South-America.
Love,
Liliana
