I have yet to meet a birthmother in an open adoption who has felt entitled to any of these things unless the adoptive parents agreed to it before the adoption. There is a big difference between
desiring to be with a child on his/her birthday and
demanding it. I especially have not heard anyone demand a say in how the child is raised. While there are certainly birthmoms out there that overstep, it is a matter of adopting parents being clear about boundaries, not expectations on anyone's part on this forum that they aqueous.
And for the record. It is not your parenting choices I have issues with. It is your stereotyping of birthparents I have a problem with.
