Oh, believe me, I can completely relate to what you are saying. I relinquished my son, and I know for me (and him) that was the right decision. He has had a wonderful life and has been given so many things I could not provide, and not just material things, either. So often I've said "how I wish it was ME who could have provided him with those things." I mentioned this once to a friend and he told me "in fact, you DID provide him with those things by making the decision to place him with his adoptive parents." I don't know if that will help you at all to see it this way, but it did help me.
