Personally, I don't think it was a "good question" at all. It is none of your business whether the OP uses birth control or not...period. She wasn't asking for advice or opinions regarding birth-control methods. She was asking advice about a specific adoption agency.

I was horrified at your statement about throwing yourself into the river if you placed more than one child for adoption. There are more than just a few "regular" members who are bmoms on these forums who have placed more than once. If anything, they need all of our support and reassurance. I have never walked a mile in their shoes...I have only placed one child for adoption. That certainly does not mean that I'm a better person. It just means that I never was placed in that horrible situation ever again. It's hard enough for bmoms on this forum to face the guilt and loss over relinquishing their babies. None of us need to be admonished to take birth control, especially by another bmom. You are indeed lucky that you haven't had to make that decision more than once in your lifetime.

I hope you find all the help you need and remember what you post stay's forever.
I've noticed on most threads that you've posted on lately that you're including a warning about being careful in what a member posts because the messages are archived. I'm just curious as to why you keep bringing this up. I see nothing in the OP's thread that would be considered objectionable. So why the warning?? Many posts are made by members who are looking for personal advice or opinions. It's hard to get advice from others if you don't give a personal background of sorts...
